Taking It Back

May 20, 2015

Taking it back... Way back! Haha! 

So there was a long stretch of days where it was super hot outside. A few weeks ago, we did some landscaping in the back yard. I didn't want my newly planted creation to immediately wither away and die, so I pulled the hose over and began watering the plants. I had Madison on my hip and every once in a while she would stick her hand in the stream coming from the nozzle and giggle. I stuck her foot in it and she giggled again. After multiple limbs getting wet, I was getting pretty soaked too! Madison's pool had taken a hit and deflated, so that water activity was out. Hmmm what can we play with?!  It hit me then! Sprinklers....

It was an old school idea. Who actually plays in the sprinkler anymore?! I hooked up our sprinkler and turned the hose on low. I changed Madison into her bathing suit and set her next to it.

She seemed kind of unsure about it at first, but then stuck that hand right into the water! After that it was over! She was getting all into it! She was getting pretty darn wet and not caring one bit! I lifted her up and dangled her feet in the water and swayed her from side to side! The giggles coming from this chick were contagious! I couldn't stop laughing from her laughs! 

What a fun way to cool off and play! I can't wait until we do this again!
