We have spent a lot of time this week in the water. We started with our first trip to the YMCA pool on Monday with some friends. Rain was in the forecast, but it held off, and the sun came out for most of our visit. Tuttle attempted the swim test to be able to use the big water slide, but we still have a little work to do before he is ready. He must swim the length of the pool freestyle, tread water for sixty seconds, and float on his back for ten seconds. I was so proud of him for trying so hard! :)
We stopped by Brookrun Park Tuesday for some playground play, but immediately discovered that the water had already been turned on in the little park creek. Even though we did not have bathing suits, Tuttle and Maggie loved cooling off their feet in the water.
We returned to Brookrun Park on Wednesday ready to get soaked in bathing suits. Jack, Lilly, Baby Alice, and Ellie met us there, too! Tuttle found some big boys with water guns to run around with, so he was completely happy and entertained.
I think our summer is starting off with a bang! Water is a must in the Atlanta summer heat!
