Memorial Day week

We had a great Memorial Day weekend. On Sunday we met Mark after he played golf and went swimming at Austin Country Club with some friends. Harrison was so excited for his first trip to the pool this year. The kiddie pool there was great! It was covered with a shade top, and had a wade in area at one end and fountains at the other. Harrison had such an awesome time. He just hopped around in the pool like he owned it, and seriously wore himself out.

While Harrison was busy playing Barrett slept in his bassinet stroller. He had a nice shady spot in the corner and must have been very comfy because he slept for almost three hours!

Prior to going to the pool Harrison decided to take all of his paper plates (zoo pals) out of the pantry and play a matching game with them. Messy? Yes. Educational? Yes...so I guess I can't complain.




On Monday we went to a different pool and once again he thoroughly enjoyed himself. This is our regular pool which has a small slide for kids his age and a big wading area. I have a feeling we'll be back many times this summer based on how much he enjoyed himself.

We got him some goggles and he wore them for a little bit. He looked so grown up!



Once again Barrett slept in his stroller while Harrison enjoyed the pool. He sure makes it easy on us!



Here is Harrison pointing out an iron. He innocently asked me what it was...and I realized he hasn't ever seen me iron and probably won't anytime soon. Whoops!




We were looking at some Dinosaur Train videos and came across one that showed how to make a Halloween costume. A light bulb went off in his head and he raced upstairs to get his costume from this year and had to wear it around for a couple of hours.



Here are the two boys together. Harrison was being sweet and showing Barrett all of his dinosaurs. Harrison still likes his brother a lot and has had only a few moments where he isn't being sweet to Barrett. He likes to hold Barrett's hand, which is so cute!
