Mud

All day yesterday we went between rain and sunshine. It was crazy. Steve had to work late, which left Babcia, Sophia, Zach, and I to take care of business ourselves. After dinner, which involved rice, which meant it involved a huge mess, I was set to throw the kids in the tub. Zach darted from the dining room table, with me chasing and watching all the little grains of rice getting tracked through the house. uugghh

He than ran into the mudroom and gestured towards the side entrance door and said "G'outside, play". I was flabbergasted! I said "Of course we'll go outside and play!" and called for Sophia to come join us. In that moment after, he then grabbed my hand and pushed it towards his shoes, and said "shoes!" to which I responded with "Let's get shoes on!" And I promptly did so. We opened the door only to have our neighbors cute puppy run in our house adding to the craziness of the situation - of course he was hard to get out - there was food on the ground! (mostly rice) so why would he want to leave! I grabbed a few peas and got the dog out the door. Sophia came running out to play with the dogs.

It just happened that a couple of the neighbors were out for walks with their dogs and they were off their leashes. At one point, one neighbors dog mounted the other. Sophia saw this and said:

"Those dogs are getting all friendshipy"

Then little Zach went on his little obstacle course. We are in the process of redoing the landscaping and painting the house - and he loves that he can hug the edge of the house without those pesky shrubs, flowers and bushes to get in the way. And then he discovered that where Daddy had pulled out a big bush there is now a big puddle. And boy did we get a bath later on.
