Wading Pool Fun

It was a very busy Saturday for the Gornstein gang. After breakfast, Mommy and Daddy took Clara and Emma for a walk on the Croton Aqueduct. After their nap (and a brief one for Mommy and Daddy), everyone got ready for the pool. It was Clara and Emma's first visit and when they saw the water, they both were excited. It was very hot and the water was cool, but felt nice. Clara and Emma took turns in the float and enjoyed sitting in the water splashing. After playing in the pool, the ladies enjoyed a cheese tortilla. It was quite funny because Emma decided to take a whole big chunk (with Mommy and Daddy closely supervising) and eat it. Then, Clara took the other end adn they both ate it at the same time- very entertaining. After the pool, Mommy and Daddy took Clara and Emma home for their bottles and then nap. When they woke up, they enjoyed a snack and then came with Mommy and Daddy to the store. They each got their own cart. Clara and Emma both enjoyed all of the things in the store and looked around with enjoyment. They also started to touch things- and wanted to punch in numbers on the keypad at checkout. Before dinner, the girls played with Mommy and Daddy. Emma decided to sit on the green ball and go "bouncy bouncy" and Clara just kept walking around the activity table. After dinner and a bath, they enjoyed their bottles and went to sleep.
