More water.....

When the weather was hot, we were in the water everyday! The kids LOVE to swim, splash and play. It is pretty amazing to watch. Brayden would take the hose, or bucket of water and just DUMP it over the girls' heads. They don't know any different, and thought it was perfectly fine. I found myself getting upset because B was nearly dry and the girls were drowned rats. Is there a need to correct Brayden? I kept telling the girls to dump water on him, but they wouldn't. They would walk over to me, where I was sitting nice and dry, and say, "Dump-a you?" (dump on you), then laugh and say, "NO, dump-a myself!" Then they would dump it all on themselves!But they never once got me or Brayden! I couldn't help myself and I did end up getting Brayden pretty wet!
They quickly learned, the one with the hose has all the power!

Brayden at it again, this time with the hose!

Dani, notice no one is near her!



The kids decided to get ALL the toys out of the garage. Of course, most of them were filthy dirty and they wanted to put them in the pool. We told Brayden he had to wash them first! He spent a good 20 minutes scrubbing and scrubbing this ONE ball. I think that was the only one that ended up in the pool. It was too funny, just like his Dad (neat and clean, perfectionist, I can't really relate).

Dani. I'm not sure what she did, but judging from her face, it must have been something naughty!


Here I am, LOVING the sitting and watching part of my day!


Ellie up to more tricks. "Watch-a me Mama!"

Miss Ellie.

You have such a beautiful backyard! And good for you for getting B wet! He can't have all the fun soaking people!

They are so cute. Perfect summer day (all you need is a mixed drink in your hand)!

I love the pictures of Ellie on the ball. She's got the yoga ball position down already and that last shot - adorable! Can't wait to see you for lunch!
