Popsicles and Playtime

William has warmed up to being outside, whereas he used to be absolutely petrified of it.
Matthew works at a private dental clinic on Tuesday nights, so William and I got to spend all of Tuesday together and cap off our mommy-son day with a visit from the ice cream truck and a Scooby Doo Popsicle.

Not sure what it is yet

Getting sleepy right at the same time each night (it's about 6:30pm).

After first taste and now he knows it's a DESSERT

Not sure about these messy hands

Thoroughly enjoying his treat

 On Saturday we needed to work on irrigating our front yard so it'll last through this summer heat.  We were just going to use a couple of soaker hoses and call it done.  But when you have a stepfather who can tell you every part you need for an easy irrigation system AND walk you through how to put it together over the phone....how can you say no to that?

The only catch was that Matthew had to dig beneath the concrete to run the main water line across to reach both sides. 

After shovels weren't working he decided to just start digging with his hand and a screwdriver

I think Matthew really enjoyed himself

William enjoyed eating apple slices in his stroller while watching daddy get covered in mud

Impersonating my laugh as I'm cracking up taking pictures of his silliness

Little ham

Played on a blanket for a while.  He is loving any toy with wheels right now.

Spent some time at his water table

The tongue stickin out means he's concentrating

SPLASH  SPLASH  SPLASH  SPLASH  SPLASH

He talked on the "phone" a while

And begged daddy for some s'mores cookie bars

I live with a couple of cute messes.
