Pool Party for Samuelson

Sam turned 30-something last month, so Tatum organized a last-minute little pool party in his honor.  At first it was just us and Sam, Tatum, and Tess.  The Wilsons came a while later.

Tess is 10 months older than Ever and so far is not a big fan.  While we were all outside, Ever went inside and sat at the table and started playing with the Play-Doh Tatum had gotten out for them.  Tess went in and sat on the chair next to Ever, took away the tool Ever was using, and started saying "stop it" over and over.  Tatum said the next day Tess kept saying she wanted to play with Ever, so maybe she had a better time in hindsight. 

After we ate, the brave got in the pool - along with Jim, who although not particularly brave was forced to get in with Dolly.  It was very cold, even for non-wusses.  Ever, of course, never wanted to get out. 

Jim, Ever, Tess (trying to get away from Ever), and Sam


The hot tub was not heated but was a little warmer.  Testing the waters:


And going for it:





Dolly was just wearing a regular diaper, so she had quite the J.Lo booty once it filled up with water:


 
Possibly the happiest event of Dolly's young life occurred when we let her eat the red velvet birthday cake.  She went to town.

It's about time we spend some more time with Ever. She is changing too fast. We need to see her.

So when does she start swimming lessons?

Little water baby! Betsy was chanting her name while I read this post. Those two girls need to reunite.
