Nanny's visit meant that the chickens were able to swim in the "big pool." I have yet to figure out how to care for three non-swimmers, also known as "drowners," without anybody dying.
This exciting event was heralded by Lucy's calls of, "Mah suit!" and Bowden just going crazy. I made them pose, but before they would get together, they had to grab balloons.

And not matching balloons either.
Lucy's new suit was on sale at Target, and I got it in exchange for a super-neato fold-up castle that I returned when I realized she hadn't noticed it yet.
I got them together, and they were rarin' to go.
Waiting for Nanny to get ready put a temporary damper on things, but they revived and I enjoyed a good hour with only one child.
