The 2nd Child Syndrome


Why Hello, Beautiful morning here
Found this shot on my camera of my boy
Super cute & Super Ornery 24-7
I've heard people talk about the 2nd child syndrome 
You know the 2nd child whom is always the more of a handful than the first
Well this is so our little guy, he's a great lil guy
He's a total 360 of what his sister was
She was an easy girl, she went to sleep, she listened
whew... not him maybe it's a boy thing thou
He's into everything, This week he's learned to sneek out of his crib
mattress is lowered as low as it will go.
I have no idea how he's doing it he's so quiet.
I thought for sure I would he grunts, or a boom when he hits the floor

My brother was a handful, he ate plants he was into everything
 including under the sink
So I think my little guy is like his uncle ...lol

Puddle Jumping


After like 3 hours of listening to a certain someone beg to play in the giant mud puddle in the backyard, she even came out with her bathing suit on 

Pouring rain in the a.m. turned into a steamy hot afternoon
So I gave in and let them have at it, Someone was more dainty at the mud puddle jumping then I expected, her brother not so
He charged right in, lost a croc half way thru and travelled on




They splashed and splashed and had a ball
in the mud and the muck
Reminds me when I was little we had a big storm
and our ditches over flowed big time, and all of us neighborhood kids
went swimming... gross yes
But a great childhood memory

Hoping my kids have lots of these
realize sometimes we have to let them go explore
get messy!!



Here's the one shoe off one shoe on, capture mid mud splash


One was soaked, One had splash dots up her legs
Warm Bath afterward and Lunch and everyone was ready for a nap
