Dirty Boy!

I am really starting to realize how "boy" E really is.....After today's encounter with the outside - I am pretty sure E will need a bath every night this summer - he was so filthy after spending most of the day outside. He spent his morning eating rocks at the playground and his afternoon in the sandbox at home tossing the sand OUT of the sandbox. A has just never been a messy person...but even after every meal we need to get the broom out - I don't know how one little boy can make such a mess every meal!!!


I also made the realization today that one outfit a day will probably not do for the summer.....especially if I stand any chance of keeping even little sand out of my house.



E also discovered going down the slide today - all by himself.....of course we had to be there to catch him...but he was ready to jump back on every time.


And this would be the play spot of choice in the front yard today....E crawled over to the "island" of rocks all on his own...and planted himself right in the middle of all the fun....at least these rocks were not small enough for him to eat.


He didn't seem to mind one bit - crawling all around on these rocks.....funny boy!



And yes - A was outside with us all afternoon too....but she steered clear of most of the rocks and opted for the toy car instead.

Your house will never stand a chance with a sandbox!! Even when you strip them down outside before coming back in the house, the sand still manages to find its way to the floor! And the sand stays in the pockets even after washing the clothes.....but oh what fun the sandbox can be for little boys!!!

If you get a dog then you don't need a broom after every meal. AND... They clean the kid's faces and fingers too! Just a little "less" house work for you. :o)
