It's all about water around here!

"Wa-wa" is the new word of the summer. My little kids just LOVE the water! They would play in freezing cold water everyday and all day if I let them. And honestly, I better take advantage of it now before the summer starts coming to an end right?

We set up a little, tiny pool in our backyard and let the kids just run wild. They are in and out of it for hours at a time. The other day they even pulled out their strollers to put "in the pool" - silly kids :) Instead, I had them run around with them in the back just next to the water.

Spence is such a great daddy - we love Saturdays this summer because we can get all the "yard stuff" done and then just play outside with these 3. A few weeks ago, we went out front and just turned on the hose and they were in heaven! Just let daddy hold it and they were happy as could be!

Little Rio loves being "cozy" with anything she can find. This time, it was her hoody bath towel - she walked around with this on her head for at least 10 minutes just laughing and running with it trailing behind her. What a cutie you are sweetie!

They even got to enjoy a Popsicle and of course, true to form, they have to take turns with each others Popsicle too - at least they are trying to share right?

Austin loves water probably the most! He just sees water and doesn't stop smiling! He's learned to put his foot on the sprinkler like the "big kids" do - he thinks he is so cool :) What a smile on him right?

Rio is so funny at the splash pads. She will run face first into the water and then quickly turn and dash toward me laughing and smiling and then do it all over again.

Jax is probably the most demure when it comes to water - he LOVES it for sure but is quite tentative about how he plays in it. That was of course until we went swimming at Aunt Sky's place and he learned the word "float." Now, all he wants to do is lay down in the water and "foat" as he calls it. He closes his little eyes and grabs my hand and just lays back. I love this picture of him - he just got blasted by the water at the splash pad and was not happy about it. Love you buddy!
