the humidity was like pea soup yesterday. the only way i was letting atticus outside was in this $5.99 pool we bought at target last week. on this particular target trip, we decided to skip the cart because atty had too much energy and that way he could expend some of it right? yeah, well that translated into atticus trying to knock over clothes displays, climb onto shelves and throw anything and everything EVERYWHERE. surprisingly, this lasted for a good 20 minutes before we grabbed the first pool under $50 and went home. i hope this description of destruction adequately details the level of distraction we were dealing with when we bought this INFANT-sized pool. the box does say: FOR AGES NINE MONTHS-24 MONTHS, so we really thought we were safe with a 17 MONTH OLD and this pool. right, he can barely stretch his legs and spent most of the time in crouching tiger pose. god bless him. he played in this teeny, tiny pool for close to an hour and had a ball with some bowls, cups and a pasta strainer. he even screamed and carried on when he pulled his shivering buns out, you know just to let us know he enjoyed it.
that haircut is still looking mighty fine.
