Playing in the rain

This seems like a few and far between kind of moment so far this summer seeing as it hasn't rained much.  Robbie had a great time playing in the puddles the rain left.

Pool Time

With the heat lately Robbie has had a great time playing in his pool and spraying us with the hose.  

Playing In The Creek

With all the hot weather lately Grammy took Robbie to play in the creek in our back yard.  He had a great time playing with the water and the rocks, and grammy got some good pictures of the action.

Water Boy

 We've said before about how much of a water baby Robbie is.  Even when he was avoiding baths like the plague, he still enjoyed playing with water outside the bathroom.  He really enjoys playing with the hose, whether we spray him or he sprays the hose himself.  By the end of it he's usually pretty wet, but happy as could be.

He had been smiling a second before I took this picture, the bottom of his shirt is soaked

Enjoying Baths Again

A couple months ago Robbie really started to hate baths, causing him to scream and cry when we gave him his baths.  He really hated getting his hair washed, we believe the cause is that he got some soap in his eyes once.

Luckily with all this time he's spent in pools and the ocean playing in water he has slowly gotten back to enjoying bath time.  He went from getting upset when we asked him about taking a bath to getting really excited when we ask.  He's still not very happy when we get his head wet but at least he's not screaming bloody murder like he used to.  While he doesn't like getting his head washed, we're glad that he's enjoying and playing during the rest his baths again.

Nashville

After Granny's house we drove over to Nashville for Kelly's 10 year class reunion.  It was nice to see some of her friends from high school that I had never met.  Kelly had a good time reminiscing with them, and we got to walk around the halls of the school as well.  Unlike my class reunion where we reserved the upstairs of a bar, at hers we walked around her school cleaning up trash, and then we had a picnic.  There was a formal dinner the next night but we didn't go to that.  

After the reunion we got to hang out with her family for a couple days.  Robbie enjoyed playing with their dog who is older and pretty much just laid there and let Robbie pet her.  The two days we were there the temperature was near the mid 90's so on Sunday we all went to the hotel pool to cool off.  On our way to the pool we made a quick pit stop at the mansion we were married in and took a few pictures.  Robbie was asleep for them, but he needed his nap.

Swimming at the pool

The Beach at Myrtle Beach

There was a neat place right by the timeshare we were staying at called Broadway at the Beach.  There was a car marry go round of sorts and Robbie got to ride in a car where he got to "drive".  For dinner we went to the Margaritaville Restaurant, where a guy on stilts made Robbie a balloon animal.  There is also a Build A Bear store there, where Robbie of course picked out the only red thing there, a red dinosaur.  


When we went to the beach Robbie liked the water and the waves, I'm not sure how many kids his age would like the waves, but he enjoyed them for a while.  He did eventually get tired of the waves after a couple bigger ones splashed a little higher then he liked.  He spent most of the time playing and digging in the sand.

First Real Swim

While Robbie had his first experience with a pool about a year ago, he didn't really go in other than up to his knees.  At the hotel in Greensboro we went to the pool and he got a little deeper.  He took to it real well, he especially liked splashing mommy in the face and getting splashed himself.  While he didn't like being on his back in the water, he had a great time and was upset when we got him out.

I'm coming back in
