Mud Puddle!

Mid March, after we had quite a few rainstorms, one of the holes Riley dug turned into a mud puddle.  Puddles draw toddler boys like moths to a flame.  The messier the better, so this one was perfect for an afternoon of entertainment for Gabriel.  He had a blast putting all the tennis balls and dog toys he could find in the yard into the puddle, then getting in and throwing them all back out again.  So messy and so cute all at the same time.  Needless to say, this adventure was followed by a clothes stripping on the deck and an immediate bath upon re-entering the house.
