Okay you need to read the title of this post to the tune of "Fat Guy in a Little Coat" from Tommy Boy. But anyway....
Since it's about a bazillion degrees outside this year I decided we should get one of those above ground inflatable pools. I didn't want one that was very big because I still wanted plenty of yard space for the kids to run around (and we already have a garden and storage shed that take up room). I also didn't want one that was really deep because the kids are 5 & under and there are four of them and only two of us so I wanted them to be able to stand on their own. Well, at least two of them because obviously we wouldn't put Masyn in the pool expecting that of her. So, I looked at what there was to offer and chose the smallest pool that there was thinking that it was still big enough for everyone. I'm apparently terrible at judging the size of things because Kent spans the entire width of the pool!!
The good news is that although we still need to be outside when the kids are in the pool, all three of the older ones, can stand in the pool without us. Oh well, maybe next year. By the way we'll have a pool for sale at the end of the year if anyone is interested!!
