The Little Gardener

Benjamin's latest favorite toy and favorite thing to do-water everything in sight. I'm trying to teach him to water the things that need it like flowers or the grass, but he really enjoys watering the driveway and the deck. He even tried to water the Explorer yesterday (it probably does need a good wash)
Watering the beautiful potted plant our next door neighbor Marcelle made for us.

He LOVES getting water from the house and the hose!

SPLASH!

Benjamin has a new pool and he loves it. We bought one of those pop-up pools and I think I've finally figured out how to put in the right amounts of chlorine and shock treatments, so we took advantage and went for a morning swim :)
This pool is the perfect size-Benjamin can reach the bottom and not be underwater.

One of his favorite things to do-take water out of the pool and water everything in sight with his little watering can.

Memorial Day at the Cottage

Benjamin LOVED the boat and actually cooperated and wore his life jacket this year. He learned to say "boat" at the cottage too. He says it all the time now...can't wait to go back! He loved helping grandpa drive and honking the horn!
Big smiles!

He and Lauryn took turns pushing each other on the farm truck.

I love this picture because you can see him saying his favorite word in the whole world right now, "WHOA!" He says it to almost everything he sees!

He found this truck at the cottage in a bin of sand toys I had brought home from school and was obsessed with it. We even brought it home because he loved it so much!
