All of us girls try to go swimming every morning with Jonathan.

It's his extended "coffee break" though so to maximize his time, we go to the closest small pool near us. He's back home in less than 30 minutes. Getting everyone to actually leave the house at the exact same time is a rare event, so even though we have the option to stay longer, some one usually heads down with Jonathan before the rest of us or leaves the pool when he does, so it's more of a quick dip in the pool, and not a lounging experience.

So when Jonathan couldn't make it to the pool one morning, we decided to have a Pool Day! Us girls headed to the big Clubhouse pool and we spent a few hours there: using all 3 swimming pools, the waterslide and even the jacuzzi. MsE even talked us into bringing the giant unicorn floatie, which is only brought out occasionally on weekends.

The floatie is so big that it can hardly fit it in the elevator. We store it on McC's bedroom balcony and need to drag it through the entire house to bring it with us. But it is super fun, if we have enough time for it to be worth dragging it in and out.

In addition to yelling, "You left without meeeee!" after the floatie, MsI also liked to say, "Watch! I'm going to do a disappearing trick," before she slowly sunk completely under the water.

It keep freaking me out in the jacuzzi where the bubbles made it hard to follow her progress under the water. She would pop up somewhere different than where she started from because her goal was to disappear.

(For reference, this 3 year old can completely swim totally unassisted. We watch her closely, but no one helps her anymore. If she wants help, she will swim to someone or to the side of the pool).  

The jacuzzi isn't heated, but the small size of the pool located in full sun most of the day, means it's quite warm. It was a fun way to end our Pool Day.
