My very own pool (that I have to share with Peepa)

Mom and I have had a pretty exciting week so far. Yesterday my lunch was entirely made up of finger foods - cheese, mixed veggies and pasta. I liked the pasta more than I have in the past. It's growing on me. As long as Mom doesn't give me any more yogurt, like she did over the weekend, I'll eat almost anything.

Today she had another surprise for me. She told me we were going outside. I thought she was crazy - it's about 100 degrees out there! Then she put a funny sunhat on, which I thought would be hilarious to take from her, but she wouldn't let me do that. Then, to make matters even worse, she wrestled me into sunscreen and my swim shirt and trunks. I realized we were going to the pool, and I was right. But what I didn't expect was we were going to my very own pool in our backyard! It is so great! It is just the right size for me. Mom tried getting in with me for a little bit, which was fun too, but she barely fit. The little pool also gave me a good opportunity to bond with Peepa, who tried to drink all the water. Matty avoided me, as he usually does, because I can't resist pulling his fluffy hair, but he enjoyed being out in nature and the chance to chew on sticks. I am really excited to have my own pool so I can cool off in our backyard and splash around with my toys whenever I want. I also can't wait to show Daddy! I was so tired when we went inside today, I took a long, nice nap.

Mitch, Papa and I can't wait for you to come swim in our pool! We promise to get you lots of pool toys to play with and a nice float to hold you up. In the meantime, enjoy your own backyard pool. It looks like a lot of fun. Love, Bubbe
