TONS of Pool-Fun Pictures!

I'm a month overdue in getting these posted, and there are a TON of them - all from ONE weekend!...but they are still fun nonetheless.  Scroll on!

and on...

and on!

Aunt Karen and Uncle Jasper came for a visit over the Fourth of July weekend, and we headed to their friend's house in Lake St. Louis for a day.  SUPER fun in their saltwater pool (boy, am I EVER a fan of those kinds of pools now!! WOW.), followed by a ride on the boat around the lake at sunset.  Pretty fun!  I think "someone" else had a great time, too!

One of the DOZENS of jumping-in-the-water sequences...

And then there were many fun tosses in from Uncle J!  She LOVED it!

See the smile on her face?  And she's pointing her toes...what an athlete! :)

Still see the excitement in her face?  :)

STILL smiling...

Mommy was letting her plop into the water for the first time with her head all the way under.  Scary for Mommy the first few times, but she LOVED it, came up out of the water like a champ, and I felt like salt water would be easier to swallow (and learn in) than icky chlorine.

She was barely up out of the water before she say, "Moooore?!?"

Funny pose

Love this crazy action shot and the weird angle of the picture!

...followed by this one, which looks like she's about to land on m face!  Ha!

Under again!

Hangin' out with cool Uncle Jasper who kept dropping her in the water, again and again and again....

Some heavy eyes from LOTS of play, but a sweet face nonetheless.

Ahh...no nap yet, but sheer happiness on this kiddo's face after hours of pool time was over!

Then we headed out on the boat, and she couldn't keep her eyes open with the wind, but...

Only moments later, she was officially asleep, despite the cumbersome and uncomfy life jacket!

Such peaceful sleep...Mommy loved her cuddliness!

The next morning...ready to go!

Mommy and EJ laughing and laughing over silly moments over breakfast together.  :)

Time to get EJ ready!  She's "helping" me brush her hair....

Snuggles with Mommy, and pigtails in her hair!

Oops...non-matching PJs again!  Oh well...

Intense writing practice...even holding the pen the right way!



A late night out on the town for drinks and conversation...and a great view of the arch, even though the fireworks were rained out.  Bummer.  :(



HAVE A FEW VIDEOS OF THE "JUMPING" IN THE POOL ACTION TO UPLOAD AND SOME OTHER GIGGLY MOMENTS.  CHECK BACK SOON!
