Playing in the Rian...

Since I have been home without a job recently, I have had a lot of time with the boys. Don't get me wrong, I love it, but there are some days that I just need the rain to end. The other day I just couldn't take it and I had to get them outside before I left them on someones doorstep. I put Benjamin's water shoes and raincoat on, and put a raincoat on Caleb and out we went into the rain and mud. I didn't care how muddy or wet they got, I just wanted them to play. So play they did. Benjamin jumped in puddles, he dug for worms to make "worm cake." he got that off Max and Ruby. Benjamin was not very fond of the worm I showed him. He told me "Ben Ben don't like that worm." Caleb crawled around in his footed jammies and got soaked. He loved every minute of it. He ate dirt, put rocks and acorns in his mouth and got soaked. Caleb watched every move that Benjamin made and wanted to know exactly what he was doing and what he was excited about.

"Ben Ben no like that worm"

After all the rain and mud came the bath... Both the boys were cold and soaked so they were excited once they got in the warm water. I let them play for a long time so they would be extra worn out for naptime. I did a good job because they took LONG naps that day.

Look who is starting to get some curls... I wonder if they will stay??
