MILO HAD BLUE LIPS TODAY

Yup, Milo had blue lips but they were an alright kind of blue lips. He had a blast playing in the water outside today. This spring I found the best water toy for toddlers and bought it, Milo has been studying the box just waiting for the chance to play with it. The weather was warm (ok, it was down right hot) so out of the box the pool came. He wasn't too sure at first but quickly warmed up to it and dove right in. He has no fear of getting wet, not sure that's a good thing for a trach kid though. The pool isn't deep, only a couple of inches and the rim sprays water. He liked the slide and didn't even seem to mind the sprinklers at the bottom that almost got his face. Despite the heat cold water chills a boy and the lips showed it. By the time his chin was shivering he was done playing and walked himself back into the house and looked at us like "aren't you coming"? I think I found his favorite summer activity, sounds like this little pool will get a ton of good use.
