Rainy Days are Fun, too!

Joshua and I have been exploring the great outdoors the past couple of days. Yesterday we went for a walk, splashed in mud puddles, felt the rain fall on our heads and watched an earthworm creep in the crack of the sidewalk. Joshua loves getting wet so I don't think he realized he was getting dirty, too!

Today, we went to an equistrian center that also had hiking trails. Since it was rainy, I knew that the park would be quiet and it was. We walked through an old covered bridge, watched the water in a stream, saw horses, geese, a turkey vulture and hawk. We saw flowers, too and picked up a nice smooth rock. He walked out a ways on the trail and then I piggy backed him back to the car. He fell asleep on the ride home but then woke up and had a drink of milk before going down for his nap at home.

Josh has been doing great with potty training. He is now using the little blue potty we have for him and as long as he doens't have pants on to fuss with he can get himself to the potty. Then when he is done, he picks up the potty, takes it to the toilet and dumps it in. That part is a bit unnerving for Jason and I to watch! But he is doing great!
