The kid's splash area was really fun and shallow enough to warm up. Elena and Bridget ran through the collected water, splashing with their feet, but Elena would only go when the fountains had timed out and quit pouring water all over the place. Joseph wanted nothing to do with it, though. The water was too cold, the floor too rough, and there was a serious lack of Mommy. He was pretty tired by then, though.
Joseph fell asleep in the stroller on the 5 minute walk back to the house (only the second time he's slept in the stroller--he's usually too busy looking at everything) and he even dozed through a quick diaper change before totally conking out in Tess' crib. Elena and Bridget had popcicles on the back porch before coming in to play puzzles & dolls, have a tea party, and play Mickey Mouse Clubhouse games on the computer.
We had so much fun, I had a hard time getting Elena to say goodbye! My only two regrets are that we didn't get to stay longer, and that I hadn't gotten Regan to sunscreen my back--I've now got an irregularly shaped pink burn between my shoulder blades.

how much fun! It really looks like you guys enjoyed yourselves. Poor little Joseph--he had too much fun he wore himself out! And way to go to both you and Regan for getting in the water!
Cute pictures! I don't know how I ended up without a single one of Elena. I am burnt to a crisp tonight. Let's hope that water warms up soon!
