Making the most of it


 I knew we were going to be stuck at the house for the majority of the week this week since Levi was contagious.  And then, when I looked at the weather Sunday night and saw it was supposed to rain all day Monday, it looked like it could be a really long start to the week (we are outdoors people and Sunday had already been an indoor day!).  However, when I looked out the window Monday morning, I realized it was not raining (and the sun was even peeking through some).  The ground was so wet, so we couldn't do our normal outdoor activities, but I realized splashing in puddles might be just what we needed.  Turns out, we all had a great time!

Addie and Levi both have rain boots, so they put them on, and off we went on a walk to find puddles to splash in.  They weren't hard to find!  Levi was definitely the best splasher (no surprise there), and Addie was not wanting to be in pictures, so these are mostly of Levi.
There she is.  Oh, and the mail lady happened to drive by while we were out there.  She gave each of the kids a lollipop-even better!
 Only pic I got of both of them looking at me.
 Found another one!
He would run in between puddles...always looking for more.
 Having a blast!
 Most fun we've had on a Monday morning in a while!
 Parading through that puddle!
 It never got old.
 Once we completed our walk, we decided to try out the lagoon in our back yard.  Addie didn't like it-she said it was scary-big shocker.
 Levi, however, couldn't get enough-even when he was in water up to his knees!
