The Great Outdoors

he's still got those cute cheeks!!
the mud and tire tracks

the great outdoorsman!!


Daddy's mini me



Sean has anxiously been waiting for Kenny to cut the grass on the "tractor" and today was the day. He likes to be just like Daddy, so I snapped a picture of him in Kenny's safari hat and then we watched Daddy cut the grass. All of the sudden, we hear a loud noise and a not "kid friendly" word come from Kenny. He had gotten the tires stuck in the mud. Sean ran over right away to inspect the situation. I tried to give it gas while Kenny pushed the mower, but no luck. So, he tied it to his suv and yanked it out. I thought it wise not to take pictures until the mower was freed from the mud-lol!

Kenny was on a roll and decided to cut the 2 empty lots next to us, so Sean and I played with the neighborhood kids. Sean was so cute calling out to Cameron and then they held hands as Sean showed him our backyard. Then, they went out front and rode their scooters while I talked to Sharon and Brenda. Sharon had just boiled some crabs and shrimp and offered us some. Yum...Sean ate chicken nuggets!

It was so nice to sit out on our patio and look at the dense woods and eat our dinner as a family.

An Ordinary Day

shooting a water "gun" from Miss Christy
getting the hang of filling it with water on his own

Sean and I are trying to adjust to the summer. He and I are both used to him going to school 2 days a week. He even asked me this morning if he was going to school and he was excited. Poor guy. I had to tell him that he will go soon. I think we're both waiting for the summer camp session to start.



Sean had a rough time sleeping last night. He didn't fall asleep until 10:30 and then woke up at midnight. He then, woke up a couple of more times wanting me to rub his back. So, we were both a little cranky today.



We had to go run errands and then came home for a long nap. After our nap (yes, I slept, too today) we went outside and played. Thank God, no ant bites today. Tomorrow, we have a playdate at the trailhead with the water spouts, so I know Sean will have fun.




We did manage to get in a little bit of waterplay!!
