With our weekend schedules full, we are having a hard time fitting in time at the local Aquatic Center. Luckily, they stay open late one night each week, so we decided to take advantage of the time today, after work. While in the office today, I mentioned it to Jennika (remember, she has 3 girls - the same ages as our boys (including twins!)), and invited her (and maybe bugged her a little about it!).
Jennika's oldest daughter, Kaebrie had no hesitation in the water. Ryder...well...he didn't like it. I don't know if it was because the water was a bit cool, or if he was scared, or if he just didn't like the unfamiliar environment. While he didn't have as much fun splashing around as we had hoped, he was very positive about it once we got home, and is looking forward to taking a beach ball with him next time - silly kid! Harvick and Jarrett were also a bit unsure, but enjoyed being in the water.

We haven't purchased the boys any water floaties, not knowing if they would even be interested - Ryder never liked things like that. We were able to borrow a swim seat Jennika had bought for the girls...Jarrett LOVED it, Harvick was a bit confused by it, and wouldn't stand upright - he wanted to lean forward. I think if he had more time (and more attention), he would have enjoyed it more.

I think buying swim seats will make our next visit much more fun!
We had a great time with friends tonight. Having so many young children is hard, and it is so nice to have someone that can relate so closely.
Thanks for a fun night, Reed Family...are you up for it again soon?!
