Sprinkler time fun!!!

Since Grant just got ear tubes we thought a sprinkler would be better than a baby pool this year. Boy were we right! He loved it! He was a little hesitant at first and stood in place while the water continuously soaked him...but with a little help from Kirk he was soon running through the water. A big thanks to Kirk for sacrificing his work shoes and clothes to play with Grant.

*Remember: You cannot run around without shoes in Houston. There can be fire ants any time of year!

Grant's pictures are so cute! Way to "take one for the team" Kirk. when did Grant get ear tubes? Brock got them and they made a world of difference, at least until he started to snore (louder than Dave..)

Ask Kirk about 'skinny' sprinkling.
H,C,K, & Ch used to do this in Claridon - sans clothes.
Ah - the good old days!

Hey - great backyard furniture!
and Grant is really cute.
I'll bet he had lots of fun.
Has he learned to turn on the hose by himself yet?
Is it that warm down there already?

So fun! I was so worried when Abbi got tubes but it all turned out great! Grant is so cute!

Guess who forgot he had wet "work" shoes this morning...and then was too lazy to go find another pair to work (daddy loves his squishy shoes =).

Actually, they dried out decently by lunch time...I think my dry (now lightly moist) socks had an effect...

Backyard furniture (swing) courtesy of Kirk. He bought it for me for my birthday/Mother's day. And the answer is no...Grant does not know how to turn on the water. Not yet...I am sure that will come.

Hey Jackie! I think that is a super idea to get our kiddos together. The funny thing is, I just introduced Dixie to running through the sprinklers yesterday too! How ironic. :) And even more ironic... she got bit by her first fire ant today. I hate those nasty little guys. :) Let me know what your schedule is like and we'll have to play! Hope your day got better!

How fun! Grant is getting so big and so stinkin' cute. It's amazing that it is hot enough to play in the water already...that's Houston for you I guess.
