Staying cool

For some reason, put rocks from the drive way into water filled buckets was at least an hour's worth of entertainment.... well ok maybe not a whole hour but it could have been. So easy to please ;-) Notice the drops of water on Isaiah's neck and how wet his shirt is. The boy LOVES water. Dave squirted him with the hose a few times while he was in the pool and he just laughed. Dave would squirt his belly and he would just get a big grin on his face. Even inadvertent squirts in the face would just bring a brief moment of astonishment followed by a huge grin Ah the cheapo miracle pool. We were all just sweltering. Everyone got in except .... Me... notice the black chair and kleenexes next to it in the background. I set up the where the hose connected to a different hose and was squirting a little to give me a nice and constant cool mist on my legs. And with the kleenex box close by I was well prepared for those nasty allergy sneezes (I went through all of Sarah and Dave's kleenex and started on at least one new box) Such a contented little guy. He sure loves his big sister. Anything Ellen does or has, Isaiah wants to copy. Such fun watching him bonk heads with Dave and walk around the house in Ellen's new princess high heels all in the same hour. When we heard it was going to be a record breaking 101 degrees we quick ran to my FAVORITE Fred Meyer store and got a cheapo pool to hang out in. Watering the yard was also a favorite, as was a squirt bottle armed with cold water for those no airconditioning in the car rides
