My last set of pictures from vacation center around the pool. The boys started out skeptical, then fell in love with the baby pool and then, finally on the last day, decided the big pool was really cool and worth their time. All of the adults in the group wished they had discovered this earlier in the week as it was pretty hot and there are only so many grown-ups who can fit in the baby pool while supervising said boys. Or who even want to get in the baby pool, for that matter.
Liam earned his keep by carrying his own towel. They each had fun with the family. Here's Aunt Heidi showing Liam the water,
while Micah got a ride on Uncle Ryan's back.
Micah explained some big math theory involving the number two to Mum-Mum, who was undoubtedly mesmerized and thanking God that her genes, which skipped right over me, had landed squarely on her grandson,
while Liam checked out Pop-Pop's sunglasses.
Liam stood for a while contemplating jumping in and letting Pop-Pop catch him. Would he do it?
Yes, he would! And thunderous applause rose up from all areas of the pool. Well, just our family, but we were pretty excited.
He kept right on swimming after the big jump.
Micah got braver and braver with each jump. The look on his face in this picture is great. I'm not sure who's more apprehensive about his landing - him (judging by what you can see on his face) or Mum-Mum (whose face we can't see).
Aunt Heidi posed with Tyson on the last night of our trip. He was starting to get hungry at that point in the evening, but was a good sport for the picture.
Later, back at the timeshare, Aunt Heidi posed with Liam and Micah, who mostly obliged.
Mum-Mum and Pop-Pop took pictures that night with the boys, but the best one with them was outside of Stacks Pancake House. (Shout-out here to Stacks for the yummy GF pancakes!!) Everyone actually smiled and looked at the camera. At the same time. It's a vacation miracle.
We were sad to see it end, and are already looking forward to next year!
