Fun in the water

 There's a great little spray fountain at the park near our house that we've been going to a lot lately. There's a fountain and a place for the water to pool which is perfect for stomping and splashing. In the afternoon and evening it's overrun with kids, especially much bigger kids, but in the mornings we usually have it to ourselves. Last Sunday afternoon it was hot and so we ventured out for the first time. The other kids near the fountain were very gentle and considerate and the boys had a wonderful time.








 Theo loves to run into the shower, then looks stunned by the force of the water and the cold.



 Where there is water, there is mud!
 This is at our lake neighbor's house, which has a great pebble beach. The boys loved walking into the lake, even up to their necks! At one point Theo was walking on his own in the water, with me right above him, and I looked down and he was completely immersed and motionless. I grabbed him and righted him, and besides looking surprised, he never even coughed. I am pretty sure he held his breath! What a smart baby!

Transferring water from bucket to bucket with cups and ladles is always fun.
