After a quick breakfast of applesauce, fed with the little spoon that makes him laugh, we played with blocks and read a couple of board books on the play mat. Then I noticed how warm and bright the backyard looked and thought… pool time!

I carried his favorite pool bag outside, the one covered in smiling rubber duckies and started setting everything up. First came the big inflatable kiddie pool, bright blue with little fish and waves printed all around the sides. While I was filling it with the garden hose, my baby boy sat on the grass in just his alphabet diaper and a tiny white T-shirt that said “Mommy’s Little Splash Buddy” across the front. He clapped and cooed around his binkie, eyes wide with excitement.

Next I pulled out the pool floaties. I grabbed the bright yellow ducky ring first, the one with the silly orange beak and started blowing it up with big, steady puffs. Puff… puff… puff. Each breath made it grow rounder and bouncier, and my little one squealed with delight as it grew, kicking his padded legs in the air. Then came the boat shaped floatie, striped red and white like a lighthouse. I blew that one up too, tying the valves nice and tight so they wouldn’t leak. I arranged them both in the sparkling water along with a couple of rubber duckies and a floating whale squirter toy.

When the pool was ready, it was time to get my baby into his little swim suit. I slipped his crinkly daytime diaper off, giving that sweet padded bottom another gentle pat and changed him into one of our special swim diapers. These are so clever, super thin but still padded and printed with tiny sailboats, designed to hold everything in while he splashes. Over that I pulled up his adorable yellow swim trunks. They’re the cutest little shorts you’ve ever seen, with a snap crotch and ruffled leg openings that make his padded tush look extra round and babyish. He looked absolutely precious standing there in the sunshine, binkie bobbing, hands reaching up for me.

I lifted him into the pool and lowered him gently onto the big ducky floatie. The moment his little feet touched the cool water he let out the happiest squeal! I sat on the edge with my feet in the water, watching him kick and splash and paddle around. He pushed the boat floatie like a big captain, squirted the whale toy at me, getting me all wet and laughing, and floated in circles with his binkie still firmly in place. Every once in a while he’d look over at me with those big, trusting eyes and make the cutest “mama!” sound around his pacifier. My heart just swelled.

We played for almost an hour, splashing, giggling, and making the biggest mess of water and sunshine you can imagine. When he started getting a little pruny, I wrapped him up in his fluffy ducky towel, carried my dripping wet baby boy inside, and gave him the sweetest diaper change of the day. Back into a fresh, thick, extra puffy diaper, the one with the clouds and rainbows this time, a soft onesie, and straight into my lap for cuddles and a bottle.

Days like this remind me why I love being his Mommy so much. He may be a grown man in the outside world, but here, in our little ABDL haven, he’s my perfect baby, and I wouldn’t trade a single splash, crinkle, or binkie kiss for anything.
