For her first birthday, Eleni received an inflatable kiddie pool from one of her generous friends! She brought it with her on a visit to Lizzy's house. The water was a little cold, but Eleni managed to convince her elders to tote buckets of warm water from the shower to add to her pool. Ridiculous but true!
At first, unsure:

Aunt Lizzy gives a splashing demonstration:
Looks like fun! I'll try it:
When the water was warm enough for Her Highness, she got in:
Oh man, this is great!! What was I waiting for?
Jolly grins:
Come on in, the water's fine!
Handy hide-and-seek bucket:
Note to self: no pet fish for Eleni...she likes to throw them out of the water.
Sleepy girl:
Not pictured here: the poopy water after we stupidly took off her (loaded) swim diaper while Eleni stood in the pool, the 45 minute tantrum during her bath afterwards, and the messy watermelon-eating at lunchtime.
What a fun day!
