The first pool trip of the season!

It's been hot lately, just like summer, so we decided this afternoon to go for a swim. Then we remembered that everyone has grown since last summer, so we took a quick trip to the store for a swimsuit for Resli, and a quick trip to the back of Resli's closet for a swimsuit for Lela.
(I know, that sounds a little second-child-sad, but believe me, Lela was as excited about her "new" suit as Resli was!)
Then we finally made it over to the pool at Grandma and Granddaddy's apartment complex. We were all a little hesitant at first... 
But the we remembered how much we love the water. We spent an hour or more splashing and kicking and jumping, and Resli got as close as she's gotten to actually swimming: (Click on the image to play the movie!)
After all that, we had two happy but very tired girls on our hands!

All my tried and true methods of uploading video failed me tonight, hence the fairly clunky need to go to picasa web albums to view the video. :(

I didn't know Grandma and Gran Daddy had a pool - how wonderful!

I feel the 2nd child pain. Hailey is trying her best to prevent it by growing faster than Alexis...Yet they both are still wearing their last summer 2T shorts. Yeah for not having to keep buying them clothes every other week!
