| My Boys Birthday Gift - A Big Boy Pool! I bought Cooper and Max a swimming pool for their birthdays this past weekend - completely on a whim. It looks quite ridiculous on my patio but I don't have any outlet outside the patio. But they love it! It's 8' wide and about 2 1/2' deep. The entire time I was putting the filter together, Cooper sat in the empty pool waiting. Max sat in fear. Once filled, I got in and put Cooper in with me. He swam around the circumference a few times. As soon as Max realized it was a giant bathtub he ran away at lightening speed. Max had his try too but he's so long he wasn't able to swim all that much. But when he got out he ran zoomies around the yard for 1/2 hour which is great exercise! At the very least my boys will be able to cool off this summer. Cooper loves it so much and has been begging to go in it! The pool, including the filter is $59.99 at Walmart. It's such a small investment and such a wonderful gift. One day I hope to get a real pool, but for now this will provide tons of fun. Get one!
