Enjoying Summer...

     We have been enjoying this very warm weather by spending most weekends on the beach or in the pool. Anywhere to stay cool and beat the humidity! Of course for Zoe that just means all the fun in the world and time to perfect her swimming skills and tan. During the week after work we try to get to the pool for at least an hour for her to play and for us to get a little exercise in. (Chasing her around everyday just isn't enough sometimes ya know?!)  On Fridays she knows at school she gets to have splash day. The teachers set up small pools and sprinklers around the playground and the kids get to have at it. It is a favorite day for our little water baby, as soon as we pick her up on Friday the very first question out of her mouth is "are we going to the beach now?". She knows we do almost every weekend, and is ready to enjoy the ocean, chase seagulls, and build BIG sandcastles.
     We have had the opportunity to go to Myrtle Beach as well, where Zoe got to ride in a golf cart for the first time and loved it. You could hear her coming down the road yelling "weeeeeee" oh it was just delicious! She experienced her first lazy river as well, however that was a little slow paced for her liking. So she jumped out and ran into the kiddie pool where there were kids and waterfalls. There have actually been a lot of first for her this summer. Not only has she been learning to swim, she has also learned to ride her bike. She is getting the peddling down now, but I have a feeling she will be off in no time. Maybe this is a good time for me to take up jogging so that I can keep up with her.
