Pool Pieces

Can you believe we haven't made it to the pool yet this year?! Since we plan to go later this week, I thought it was time to take advantage of some July 4th sales and pick up some things. We didn't even have enough (9+ year old) beach towels for each member of our family so yesterday was the day to fix that. Each child got to pick out their character towel. A picked the puppy, C picked the frog and M picked the monkey. Each member of the family got their own water bottle for poolside sipping too. I thought the stay-cool insert might be useful and they all match yet are in different colors so I'll know which ones belong to which child yet no one can fight over the "better" water bottle. Isn't it crazy that you have to think that far ahead with small children?!
