Cincinnati - Part 3

On Sunday, we were lucky and got to go to Jeff's parents' house to swim. Will spent most of his time on the steps filling/pouring buckets and using the water guns. He finally got adventurous and went for a ride on one of the rafts around the pool. Alex (sporting a pink UV top) dipped his toes in the water and immediately started to cry. It was a little too chilly for him. He sat on a raft for a bit and then hung out in the Bumbo near the pool. Then Phil (who also thought the water was too cold) walked him around while the rest of us played. We had lunch at the pool and then went home for naps. Will again refused to nap so we went for a walk around the neighborhood. We all met at Skyline for dinner (a tradition) and then went back to Mimi and GBob's for Mimi's birthday treats. The kids were sad to say goodbye but are already looking forward to our trip next summer.

The trip home on Monday was uneventful. Both kids were pretty worn out. Alex slept a good portion of the trip and Will tried out the DVD player in the minivan for the first time. When we were about 20 minuts from home, he whimpered and said, "Mom, I just can't sit in this carseat anymore. I need to get out!" I was right there with him...

Too cold!
