Birthday Pool Party Antics

What better way to spend a hot Saturday afternoon than to be at the pool with your friends. Yes, we had yet another birthday party to attend, this time it was at the gym where Lukas takes swimming lessons, so it was close to home.

They started out in the kids indoor play area.

Then it was time to head to the pool for some fun...





Enough of the fountain, let's hit the slides...





When Lukas first started at Pre-school he would wait for Sophia E when he got to school. Here she is.


Then a new Sophia arrived at school this winter and he took a liking to her. Here is Sophia K.


Amazingly, Sophia K is from Russia, the area just above North Eastern Kazakhstan. Her mother is of Asian ethnicity and her father Russian. She could easily pass for a Kaz kid. She also is just learning English as they haven't been in the US long.


A couple of weeks ago a new girl started in Lukas' class. I was informed one afternoon that Lukas had a "girlfriend". He takes her by the hand and leads her around. They say she is shy and he has taken her under his wing. The director has mentioned it to us and so have some of the other children. We had yet to meet his new interest until today. Alice was at the party. He didn't really stick with her much while playing in the pool, but after everyone changed and was ready to head back inside I turned around and saw the happy couple.


And here is Lukas with all three of his girls at lunch...
