Warm Spring Days...A Little Taste of Summer

In between the wet and cool days of spring there have been a few beautiful days. We take every opportunity we can to get outside and play on those days.

Madison loves to have a little water to play with when it's not quite nice enough for the pool. She stays busy moving the water from one container to another and doing a little cleaning with a rag. Carson doesn't quite understand Madison's ways--he would just rather dump it all out.

Here she is in motion. Carson is content wandering around the deck chewing on the wet washcloth. Hear all that noise in the background....the making of the "dry ponds." (see View From Our Deck post if you don't know what I'm referring to)

While Madison played with the containers of water, Carson occupied himself by getting in and out of this chair...check out the chubby boy. After a few times of standing up in the chair I had to stop video taping as I was concerned for his safety.

And on the hot days we've gotten the pool out, put a few inches of water in it, and they play until their lips begin quivering.

Carson hasn't quite mastered getting up the steps of the slide yet but Madison is a pro...the slide becomes a water slide when the pool is out...ONE, TWO, THREE, GO....
