First Dip in the Pool

It's been miserably hot here all month. Record high temperatures for July - a fact made all the worst by my head cold. I feel like I'm suffocating doubly from the heat and the congestion. But what can you do?

So this weekend, as Congress was working hard (and still is as I write this) to come to some sort of resolution for the debt ceiling, we went to G's parents' to go swimming. They were away, so we had the pool all to ourselves.

It was my first time in a bathing suit since last summer, before Delicious was born.  I still need to lose about 10 pounds. The body changes after having a baby. It shifts and the weight is distributed in weird ways. It's all in the middle, upper arms and thighs now. Thank goodness one pieces and tankinis are in. I got this mix and match job from Target. I think it was under $25 for both. 

 Thank goodness for tankinis

We didn't plan on putting Delicious in the water, as he didn't have swim trunks/diapers. But it just so happened that after drinking his bottle poolside, he did a big poo-poo. After we cleaned him up, G suggested we just dip him in the pool for good measure.  Boo-boo's first pool experience!

 A little unsure at first

There was a shady corner, so I handed him to G, sans clothes, save for a hat. As you can see, Delicious was a bit unsure, but soon got used to it. He loved it!

 Skinny dipping is so fun!


How was your weekend?

You're looking so good, P! (Incidentally, I've been wanting this tankini but it's sold out at all the Targets around here. Boooo..)

Skinny-dipping Delish?! Too much fun. I can hear him laughing & gurgling just by looking at the pictures. Thanks for sharing. He makes me smile :)

I'm STILL all about tankinis - 15 months later. I've been looking at Target, but didn't see anything as cute. S is adorable and it looks like he'll be quite the water baby. What a fun milestone!

I love his luscious baby rolls!! So cute. We bring P to the pool too. She loves it as well.

I hear you on those last 10 pounds. So stubborn! No matter what I do but you still look great!!!

*shrieking* Delicious is sooooooo... adorable!

I feel you on the after baby weight. I got into a tankini as well last months (4 months after baby) and I almost cried coz I used to live in my bikinis all summer long. I'm still working hard to get back to the pre-baby body.
