Finally Warm Enough!

Last weekend we finally had a day warm enough to go enjoy the outdoors.  It was so warm, in fact, that we were able to get out the water table!  The kiddos were pleased, to say the least.



Mollie donned her stylish glasses, as usual.  It was her first time getting to play with the water table, and she was an instant fan.

Being one, however, she quickly looked for something new to do.

Once she had it in her heart to go for a walk, I was obliged to follow.

After a little walk, Mollie went back to pouring water on herself.  She also discovered it was great fun to splash around in the little puddles she inadvertently created.

Baylor used a watering can to fill up the water wheel.

And he discovered that spraying a hose is super silly and, at the same time, totally fun.

It was so good to see him smile!

And, you know, our plants needed some less-than-effective watering.

Mollie, needing another distraction, got into the wagon and happily bounced on the seat.


Then she tried out Baylor's tricycle and helmet.  I have a sneaking suspicion that she is going to be our on-the-go girl.

Maybe it has something to do with age or maybe it is just a difference in temperament, but while Mollie bounced to and fro enjoying a whole variety of activities, Baylor was content to play only with the water table.

Seriously, she was on the go the whole time we were outside.  Of course, it is much tougher to be on the go when you lose one of your shoes.



And no worries, no Mollies were harmed during the photography of this day.  Hope you have a good one!
