Our favorite playgroup

We had a playgroup at our friend's pool early in the month and it was such a great time for everyone that we decided to have it every week there in August. Unfortunately Hurricane Irene seems to have spoiled the last one that was supposed to be tomorrow, but it's been so great and so much fun. Taryn did get to get in the pool once, the rest of the times she took a blessed nap inside and we all had fun while she did her favorite thing...Here she is with our friend and neighbor Rebecca.

I wish I could figure out how to post videos on here more easily and faster, because it was a riot to watch all the boys jumping in together and coming up with different ideas of things to do and games to play.

That's my fearless boy. He actually started out like all my other kids, really not liking water on his face and afraid of it. We have worked so hard all summer (worked, as in gone swimming A LOT) to get him past it. Actually he was great the moment his 3 brother jumped in together and he wanted so badly to do whatever they do. But he really does need to just do it as often as possible to not go back to the fear thing.

Look at that form...
