Pool party

A woman at the YMCA has a little boy who is 9 months old. I call him Oldman. He is always observing the world in a very serious manner. I never see Oldman smile or laugh, but I also never see him cry. He is just a very content little guy.

Anyways, Oldman and his mommy invited Porgie and I to come swim in their pool today. We are very excited. I am hoping that Porgie will be well-behaved. We have swim class at 10:00, then I am going to rush home and put her down for a nap at 11:00. Hopefully she will sleep until 1:00. At 1:30, we have the pool playdate. That is a lot of swimming in one day. But, if Porgie isn't in the mood for swimming, she can always run around.

Also, I have found a new activity for Porgie - playing in the yard. In the past, Porgie was always freaked out by the grass. But now I take Porgie's old-woman-walker outside and let her run. The only problem we have encountered is the sidewalk. I really want her to stay in the yard, but she insists on strolling up the sidewalk. We can't use our fenced in backyard because we have dogs. And dogs = poo.

Pictures of Porgie in the yard are coming soon...

Good luck on your pool party play date. I hope she naps just like you want her to!

Gage was always freaked out by grass too! I thought my child was weird....but if Porgie is that way too....then either they are weird together, or they're perfectly normal.

I think I've decided not to think about the dog poop in our yard and, once she is running around, just let her have at it.

You know how I love playdates, so I hope you have fun!!! Busy day. She'll sleep well.
