Baseball First, Pool Second

Connor had a pretty great day. Baseball first (including the first win of the season, no less) and then the pool. Summer doesn't get much better than that! The twins were less impressed with baseball. We won't talk about how they not once but twice rocked the stroller so hard they unlocked it and spun around backwards. Yeah, that was us.

The boys were in for a better afternoon. Grammy and Pappy invited us out to the club pool for our first swim of the season. All three of them were excited about that and spent hours jumping and splashing in the kiddie pool. Connor even took a few turns on the slide and the diving board in some of the bigger pools. It was hours and hours of fun. The boys may or may not have slight sunburns from all the fun. They tend to not want to leave, and we spent about five hours in the sun and water.

It was so much fun that all of the boys ended up in bed early. Connor actually put himself to bed about 7:30 - and let me tell you, that never happens! Sawyer fell asleep on the ride home, before he even had a chance to eat his chicken nuggets or french fries. Xander was asleep within minutes of his head hitting the pillow.

It was a long, but incredibly fun day. A baseball win for one, and a day at the pool for the rest of us. The Oreo McFlurry wasn't bad either.
