Mud Puddles

It was a beautiful spring day today (notice daddy in shorts in the background!). So Ethan put on his giraffe rain boots and headed out to look for some puddles to jump in!

First, we just explored the yard. Ethan and daddy had been out earlier playing with the neighbor's dog and meeting the mail lady. Ahh, what fun!
Yes, it is definitely family fun day at our house. Ethan fished this old container out of the recycling bin in the garage and loved holding and shaking it while walking back and forth through this long mud puddle. We definitely know how to have a good time around here!

It is even more ridiculous that mom and dad were chasing him the whole time with a camera!
Notice his dirty seat! He fell twice in the puddle, once forward and once backward (still a bit unsteady in the big boots!) so he was quite a sight by the time we were done.
When we said it was time to say "bye-bye" to the mud puddle, Ethan threw a fit and sat down on the ground in protest. Luckily, daddy and mama made him giggle by picking him up between us and "swinging" him back home again.
