The pool is...open!

We finally got our chemicals under control and the water is clear!

Jacob and I had our first dip in the pool last night. It was cold going in but once we were in, it was great! With the temps approaching 90 today, I'll be ready for it again tonight!

In swim lessons, they used a float belt and Jacob did really well with it...to the point where he thinks he just floats all by himself. He gets mad when you won't let go of him. I tried a tube with him last night and he didn't like that one bit! I found that the school where we had swim lessons sells the float belts. I tried on 3 different occasions to catch someone at the school to buy one of these dumb belts. I finally bought one this morning (after finding the school's IT guy-who found the aquatic director-who was glad to help me as soon as he got the swim team started in their practice session). I was so excited, I had to call Jeremy to share the good news.

I've been so busy trying to get everyone else set for the pool, I've ignored myself. I have to run out at lunch for a new swimsuit for me. The one I wore last night went straight to the trash. I hate when swimsuits get to that point - when all the broken elastics stick out and your boobs don't stay in the baggy pouch created by all of the broken elastics - kinda like when the elastic is shot in your underwear. But, another 'pro' to having a pool in your backyard! I can't complain this suit has served me well though, I think 6 years is a pretty good return on a Wal*Mart swimsuit.

Hopefully, Jeremy can get some pics of Jay in the pool out here soon. He hasn't been home in the evening and well, I can't leave Jay in the pool alone. I promise, soon
