Chilling in the Cooler

We have had our kid pool blown-up on-an-off the past month. At one point I was trying to think of a way for Etta to enjoy the water without being in the big pool with Addie becuase I did not want her getting splashed or accidentally knocked over by Addie's friends, and I did not want her attempting to eat every single blade of grass that made its way into the pool. So this is what we came up with:

She is the perfect size for the shallow cooler!

 At one point she had pink water in her mini-cooler. It was very pink & I really wish I had a picture. No she did not excrete something nasty that discolored the water. She did the classic baby move of pulling off her hat and dropping it in the water. But I guess this hat had never been washed before because the bright pink bled into the water. Addie was almost upset at first by this color change but then she wanted a turn in the "baby pool" with pink water :)
