Swimming fun

Today has been good day...productively restful. After getting a good night's rest (much needed for this froggy gal), we have gotten some things done and yet had time to play and rest. I love that Clay has every other Friday off. It is nice to have these longer weekends without using his vacation time. His company treats us well... and we are so blessed to have this job! I digress... Clay washed his car - even down to wiping every part of the engine! This took me back to my childhood days when Dad would spend his mornings (before the hot sun) washing cars and caring for us in turn. Back to Clay - he hung more blinds (only one more to go due to an abnormally sized window!), hung a couple of pictures, ironed, and cut his hair. I ran to Wal-Mart, painted a shelf, did some laundry, changed the sheets, along with the normal care of the little one. I hope to get a few things put away in the guest room before I go to bed.

The fun part of today was playing with the little one. He has been in an exceptionally good mood today. He slept so great last night, and he happily played in his bed after waking up at each nap until I got him. It is bright and sunny here (surprise, it's Texas!)... so we decided to blow up the swimming pool I bought him at Wal-Mart... this was the best $7 investment! He had a blast! He was a bit startled by the cold water at first, but he quickly began to splash around. He just squealed and laughed and splashed! Clay and I had the best time watching him. I have a feeling we will be spending a lot of time on the deck this summer... I am glad I bought an umbrella for our table! Something tells me I may have a pretty good tan come August...
















One "tragedy" happened today... I ran into the coffee table with my toe... I thought you might get a kick of how black/purple it is! I don't think it is broken, but it sure does hurt! Clay has gotten quite a kick out of it - no pun intended!


Days like this make me feel good... things have been accomplished, but we have enjoyed each other, laughed, and relaxed. I hope you have a productively restful weekend!
