Yep, the kids made a basement pool. They have really turned the corner and are more able to entertain themselves and each other, which is heaven!! A couple weeks ago, Finley comes up from the basement asking for something "big and blue so we can make a pool." Several sheets and towels later, they invited me down to see their pool complete with couch pillow diving boards. They also had the new water squirters we got at Costco :) for pretend water fights.
Then, I grabbed them some noodles and some folding chairs.
They get along pretty well and while they can often be found in the playroom at the same time, they are often just moving in their own circles playing with totally different stuff. However, when they do want to play something that requires another person, it's nice they can ask each other and not one of us!
And boy can they have fun with just about anything :)
But let's be honest, while we love their new found independence -- we love how much they love spending time with us, too!
