Outdoor fun with my son

My child loves to play outside. Anytime he can get dirty he will. Which I'm sure most boys do. His favorite things to play in is dirt and water. It's been raining a lot here in Summerville. So when we had a sunny afternoon, I decided to try finger paints. I wanted to to see if he'd enjoy painting. He loved it! He enjoyed putting his whole hand in each bottle and making a mess with the colors. I wanted to document him painting that afternoon. Eventually I'll buy a smock so he won't ruin his clothes.  But right now I'm not to worried about it. After he was done painting he went straight to the water holes!

   All he wants to do is have fun. Which any child should! We just put up a fence and haven't fill in all the hole post with dirt yet. Caleb loves to put what ever he can find in those holes especially when the water is in there. That day he was putting bricks in the hole. Needless to say he was a hot mess after everything. But the fun doesn't stop outside. Bath time is a whole different story. He LOVES bath time. He loves bubbles and he loves to splash in the water! I always have to make sure there are towels on the floor or the floor will be wet.

If you have children take a day and document their fun through out the day. You won't regret it. I know in my family I always seem to be the photo taker... my sister and brothers don't take photos maybe sometimes on birthdays.. It's always nice to look back on photos. Time passes so quickly and your baby turns to a toddler, then they are teenagers, then adults in a blink of a eye! 

 I'm so thankful for my child and I cherish every moment with him. He is after all our miracle baby!
