Water Water Everywhere

Living here in SW Florida, we are surrounded by water. The Gulf of Mexico is immediately to our left. If we happen out about 120 miles to the right, we'll hit the Atlantic Ocean. Basically, if you spin around real fast until you get dizzy, well, just keep walking. Eventually, you'll reach SOME body of water. Or, if you see some peach trees, then you've probably hit Georgia.

Now, being so close to the beach, you would probably think we're regular beach bums who can barely keep Sprite away from the water. Not exactly. Sprite has been to the beach one time, and that was to take some pictures. And the one time Sprite has been in a pool, she was only in toe deep when she started freaking out. She likes the tub. That's about it.

We found a water park area at the local park here and Sprite actually enjoys it. She likes it since she can still walk around, trying to catch water and trying to hang with the preschool set. We like it since she's not screaming bloody murder.

 

See the two to the left holding hands? That lasted about 5 seconds before the boy slapped her. Ah, young love..

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm not afraid. I'm not-

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm afraid!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I can do this. It's just water.

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's just-

 

 

 

 

 

 

Daddy!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I wanted out anyway. I was starting to prune..

 

 

 

 

I think I'll just lay out for a while and catch some sun.

(Editor's Note: We did not allow her to lay out for any longer than just after the picture was taken as that would not be good for her and she would have made a cumbersome obstacle for the kids who were running around the area. So to avoid injury and possible sunburns, we called it a day. But still, the picture is pretty cute, right?)

Sprite is so cute! It's always so amazing that an already-adorable toddler can somehow be made even more adorable with the simple addition of a bucket hat.

Great pics of my little girlfriend :) She looks like she was having a great time and I can't wait to come back and go to the park again so i can see it all in person.

She is sooo cute. I wish we had a water park around here and I'd see what my crazy Jonathan thinks of it. Just love the photos...
