Swimming pool counting

Sweet Pea started playing this game in the boys’ little pool yesterday morning. He was jumping up and down splashing as much as he could, while counting each hop and giggling like crazy. He wasn’t exactly counting in sequence, but when I started counting with him hoping he’d catch on I heard “No, Momma, jump and count!” It wasn’t good enough that I jumped on the grass, I had to stand in the pool with both boys, all three of us jumping, while counting. But…he got it! He started counting in sequence and we all started laughing and giggling, and remarkably no one got hurt!

I stopped jumping for a minute and they followed suit. Then I heard the count down (or in this case the count up), “One, two, three….jump Momma!” and it all began again. I’m not sure why I worked my legs out today, they are so sore from a good 30 minutes of jumping yesterday! I can’t really complain, Sweet Pea obviously loves to count! (I should have taken a picture of our feet splashing or something…)

So, jump along to some blog hops with me!
