Growing Gills

I don't know what I would do without a pool. Yesterday we were in the water more than we were out. Carter has become pretty good swimming underwater and even dives for dive sticks. I had to jump in with my shoes on and save Cade once. See I don't really want to drown my kids!! Cade is putting his head underwater too. I am so relived because I love the water and I was afraid that my boys didn't. Before we opened the pool they never asked once when we were going to start swimming. I would have been asking in March when I was a kid. Having a pool is cheap entertainment after you give up everything else. We don't always vacation like we did this year and I also didn't do the zoo pass this year. One thing is expensive about a pool, FOOD! We all get the munchies and scarf enormous amounts. People think it is drugs that cause munchies but it is really chlorine.
