Living Life and Loving It!

SO...i am still in the blahhh mood so we haven't done much and the kids haven't really left the house in days(which is hard on all of us), i woke ry up from his nap today after 3 hours and asked him if he wanted to go outside and play in the sprinklers.  Of course his answer was an immediate "YESSS"   

We got already and went out to try our new "Buzz Lightyear" sprinkler and of course i couldn't get it to work properly uuurrggghh!!  I can't even tell you how frustrating it is to have two kids pawing at you to play with something and then spend 10 minutes in the HOT sun trying to get it to work, all in vain-i'm not a thrower but i wanted to chuck this stupid toy to Timbuktu!  i am done buying water toys and bubble toys, they NEVER work, this will be the third one i return this summer!!!

okay now that i have that off my chest, we ended up having a great time with just the plain old hose, 

who would have thunk it!! 

I was the sprinkler, we all had a great time and ended up playing out there for almost 2 hours and until the kids were chattering(which i'm not quite sure how that happens since it was almost 100 degrees outside and the water coming out of the hose was luke warm)  anyways we had a great time, and they were in bed by 7!!

"mom will you please wash off my white bum?"

I don't know what is up with his shorts lately, he must have had a little growth spurt because none of his pants fit him in the waist anymore, they all just slide off!

my favorite pic of the afternoon!

seriously she was so excited that Ryan got out of the pool!!

of course he has a Buzz for the pool!

she couldn't decide if it is worth the effort to climb in or not

It was a good afternoon!  

we should do this more often!
