Was It The Salt Water?

Today started off like any other day, Declan gets up all happy, he has some bottle, some breakfast, hangs with Mommy, catches some Phineus and Ferb, has a little nap, gets all freshened up, plays some, has more bottle, Daddy gets home from work.

Then we got ready for visits!

Mommy and Declan headed upstairs to see Madison, Josh and Auntie T.  His swimsuit was packed as we were anticipating Grandma and Grandpa's arrival for a pool date.  It was just after 3pm when they arrived so Declan got in some Grandma cuddles just before it was his nap time.  That meant that he fell asleep on Grandma - not a bad place for an afternoon nap. Everyone else headed outside to get in the pool while Mommy and Grandma waiting for the little guy to wake up.  Then just like that, he just pops up and is ready to go.

First Declan needed to get some dinner in him.  Carrots - yum, followed by the new favourite blueberries - double yum.  Then a change in to his swimsuit and we were into the water.  While playing in the water Daddy and Uncle Scott came outside to join in the fun. 
Little Declan was in the water for such a long time.  While his Auntie T was holding him in the water he kept getting salt water on his lips which he then proceeded to lap up.  He was getting really comfortable in the water.  More leg kicking and arms waving and splash....that's right, the little guy discovered the fun of splashing in the pool.  The left arm was crazy splashing and now and then the right one too.  Poor Auntie T.  Her face was getting soaked.  He just loved it.
There was a new little boat in the pool.  Madison had brought it in and Declan just had to try it out.  With such high sides he fit in it rather well and had the chance to float around.  Happy and lounging in the pool.

After getting out of the water, getting all dried off and changed the little man sat in his lounge chair in between Mommy and Grandma.  Mommy notices that Grandma is rearranging his blankets and toys, looks away, looks back and sees that Grandma has moved the arm that dangles toys over Declan, Mommy looks away again then looks back just in time to see Grandma scoop Declan up.  Sneaky Grandma. I'm onto you.

But did he drink too much salt water?  Maybe it was the apple prune juice yesterday? Well whatever it was our Declan had his first diaper blowout.  Poop made it's way out the leg of his diaper and poor Grandma was cuddling him when it went down.  He surely didn't mean to make a mess and he didn't even fuss. Mommy and Daddy snatched him up quickly and proceeded with operation nasty bum change.  After which Grandma once again wanted more snuggles.  No harm done.
