Summer Time....

So, as I'm sure everyone has noticed, it has been REALLY hot lately and we have been having a hard time keeping Madi cooled off while we are outside. SInce Madi loves playing in the water, we decided to get our little toad a pool to splash around in. Since she is growing so quickly, we just wanted to get her a cheap little tiny pool that she could just have fun in this summer. We ran down to Walmart and found the "hoppy pool". It was just too stinkin' cute! We brought it home, and wouldn't you know our luck, it started storming! So we waited and waited and waited. It started getting later in the day so we thought we would just set up the pool and have everything ready and let her play in it the next day. So we got it set up and thought it would be cute to put her in without any water just to watch her play and see if she even liked it. The toad pool was a hit! Although it was adorable to see her playing in the pretend water, we decided we just had to fill it up. It had warmed up quite a bit and we knew she would have a blast in there. Right when we set her in she imediately got a HUGE smile on her face. She was having so much fun when out of no where, Dad jumped around the side and scared her to death! She almost jumped completely out of the pool. It was hilarious! Madi thought it was pretty funny when dad was splashing water with her until it hit her in the face.... It wasn't so funny anymore.... She started getting bored so dad pulled out the big guns. The pool has a built in sprinkler! Daddy started it up and after showing Madi what it was, she decided the pool was fun again! The pool was obviously a HIT with Mads so I am sure we will be out side sittin' poolside helping her splash. So if any of you find yourself overheated, head on over to our place, Madi would love to share!
