Fun in the inflatable...pool.


Another summer holiday and Christmas spent at Noosa. Eli and I arrived there first this year (even before Grandma and Grandad), and Eli quickly made the most of it by enjoying a swim in the inflatable pool, which had, somewhat miraculously, survived the winter intact (albeit deflated).
Armed with even more confidence and bravado than last year, he jumped around like a lunatic...here are some photos of some of his spectacular landings off the top of the slide (apparently just sliding down into the water is a bit mundane).



Eli loved it and once Alora turned up the pair of them went a bit crazy with their splashing around. They really are good partners in crime these days and a lot of their games revolve around them teaming up and 'getting' one of the adults...typically Grandad.



As if jumping around in and on the pool isn't enough, one day Eli ended up with the hose at his disposal. As you will know from some earlier posts, he loves a good waterfight, so long as he's on the drier end of the hose... He absolutely loved it and was out to spray anyone within striking distance. Grandad made a hasty retreat into the house, but Uncle Shane was up for the game and Eli's second cousins, Madeleine, Tyce and Brittany got caught up in some of the crossfire too.





Here's a short video showing Eli chasing down and hosing Uncle Shane...
