Monsoon Rain

We got up this morning with one goal in mind, get the lawn mowed. It was overcast and looked like it might rain but the weather forecast said there was only a small chance of rain today. Well after about 20 minutes of mowing it started to rain or more like down pour, so much for getting the lawn mowed, and since we were all ready wet we decided to go splash in the flood. These pictures were taken about 30 min after it started to rain and at about 8:30am. It was lots of fun but I felt like Ainsley was going to get washed away. After we played we went home for hot chocolate. I guess those rain boots do come in handy.

Turtle Song

Henry loves to sing this song.

Here are the lyrics in case you can't understand what he is saying.

I had a little turtle his name was tiny Tim. I put him in the bathtub to see if he can swim. He drank up all the water, he ate up all the soap, now he's home sick in bed with a bubble in his throat.
Bubble, bubble, bubble, POP

August in Review

 Esther and Henry started preschool on August 20th(Esther) and 21st(Henry). Esther goes on Mon, Wed and Fri from 12:45-3:15 and Henry goes Tue and Thurs from 10-12. They love it and argue every day about who's day it is to go.

 I am not sure how one can fall off a thicycle but if one can Henry would be that one. He was going really fast and went flying off the curb and fell right over and got pinned under the bike. This was about 2 weeks ago and the bruise is still there.

 We were just out moving the lawn and not swimming. I think we said that a million times but did they listen, NO. It ended up being naked swimming.

 Esther decided she was going to comb her hair by herself, which usually isn't a problem. I am not sure how she got her hair all twisted up in the comb but after trying everything we could think of we just ended up cutting it out.  :(
