Play-Doh & Jumping In!!

Yesterday afternoon I had a Dr's appointment and then book club in the evening. My Mom was nice enough to come over and watch Lily. One of Lily's favorite things to do with Grandma is play with the play-doh (not sure why, but she always has to get the play-doh out when my Mom is here!)

This morning we went to the neighborhood pool with all our friends. Lily was excited to "go to the big swimming pool with Emily, Hannah, Ashley and Elise." I didn't get any pictures at the pool since I had to tend to Lily and everyone else had to look after their kid(s), but Lily spend nearly 2 hours jumping into the pool! She started by jumping off the stairs into my arms, and then was ready to jump off the side!! A few of her friends were doing it too, and they would go all the way under, but I made sure to catch Lily before she was submerged. But I am sure by the end of the summer she will be jumping in like a professional! She loved it and would probably still be at the pool jumping in if I hadn't pulled her out kicking and screaming.

I did get a picture of her helping me apply her sunblock this morning. She knows that she needs sunscreen -- in fact if a beam of sunlight hits her when she is in the house she'll yell "I need block!". It is a great habit for her to learn! I hate having to goop it on her, though, especially her poor scalp where her hair is so thin from her twisting it all out. It is messy.
