Summer!

With temps well into the 90's last week, cooling off was in tall order.  What better way to beat the heat than to get wet?  For the first time this season, we busted out the water table and the kiddie pool.
This was Jack's first time playing in the water table, and he absolutely LOVED it!

He is definitely our warm weather water guy.  He practically hyperventilates when we take him out in the snow, but give him hot weather and water, and he's good to go.

While Jack went down for his morning nap, Hannah and I filled up the kiddie pool.  Can you tell we have an excited little girl?

Side note here - for the first time this season, I also got to try out my new clothes line.  I am in love!!!  Yes, it's a little bit of a pain to go upstairs with wet clothes and downstairs from the deck to actually get to the clothesline (a walkout basement would work perfectly), but I love that I'm not running a hot dryer when it's hot outside.  Many thanks again to Jason and the kids for getting me just what I wanted for mother's day (yes, I really did ask for it), and to my dad for helping my very busy husband out and installing it.

Anyhow, back to splishing and splashing.  We ventured out to the pool later in the day, after the water had been warming up in the hot sun.  The thing was practically a hot tub, but Hannah did not want me to add any cool water from the hose.

I'm sure we'll be getting lots more use out of these toys this summer.
