It has been HOT here during the middle of the day. I guess I can't complain too much about temperatures in the 90s, since I used to live in Tucson, which is like the surface of the sun in the summer.
To beat the heat we have pulled out the kiddie pool to keep the boys cool and having fun while it's hot outside. Did I mention that I LOVE this pool? Nothing to inflate or pump up and the thing stores nearly flat. It is fabulous!
Needless to say there has been lots of sunscreen, splashing and water fun. Aren't they cuties?
We have also been working on our pool rules and etiquette. It is ok to splash and run around and have fun, but it is not ok to dump large quantities of water directly on your brother's head. If you do not follow this rule, then mommy will be sorely tempted (forced, even!) to dump a bunch of water on your head and see how you like it to try to teach you a lesson.
(Then mommy will have to laugh and take your picture while you insist that she has done you bodily harm by getting your head wet... what a mean mommy!)

Good mommy!
That's exactly what I would have done!
I just l♥ve your posts and pictures!
That's fantastic (both the pool and the payback!!)
Oh that is so funny! Yeah, we're still working on the "pool etiquette" here.
rotflmAO!!! Have you been spying on me? lol, love the shot and the story!
Gasp! You mean ole' mommy! :-)
What fun, though, huh? He's a cutie and he'll be OK, I'm sure.
Oh I love that last picture!! And that is SO something that I would do too!!
I'm in Phoenix. Do you feel my pain?
too funny, bet it didn't stop him from doing it again
How funny! It is so hard for them to understand that rule, isn't it?
oh so mean :) I love those little $10 wading pools. They entertain the kids for hours. Here’s my photo story. happy Friday!
hee hee! That's exactly what I would have done too! Did he learn his lesson? (Mine usually don't! lol)
oh yeah - HE can dump water on his brother's head, but YOU can't dump water on his!!! life is so unfair when you're a toddler!
Some lessons are hard to learn.....great shot of him crying! :)
Awww, they're darling. :) I remember having a pool like that when I was little, too - so great for fun summer days!
I like your technique! How else are they supposed to learn at that age?
Your house sounds like mine! Only my oldest has learned to kink the hose and release it when brother tries to drink. However, the baby thinks it's funny!
Awwww poor guy!! :)
Looks like fun in the pool though...before the crying of course! hehe
oh yeah, and soon baby brother will be doing the payback himself! and that pool does look like fun.
