Summer Fun!

Ok so L is way into choo choo's now.  My parents got him a little riding train and he pushes/rides that thing all around the neighborhood lol.  One of the biggest reasons that I love it here is that he can actually ride his riding toys in the road because the traffic is really calm.  Anyway, pushing/riding the choo choo and lawnmower has become part of our morning routine.
L also loves when his dad mows grass.  He helps out for a while by pushing his lawnmower, but the greatest part is when his dad dumps the grass clippings because L LOVES to play in them.  He throws them over his head and rolls in them and is just in heaven.  haha Who knew grass clippings could be so awesome?
We built him a sandbox in the backyard and he really seems to be enjoying it.  One of the first things he felt it needed was water added to it from the pool.  He spent a good bit of time filling up his watering can in the pool, carrying it to the sandbox, and dumping it.  :)  Overall the sandbox has been a hit and he loves filling up his bucket with sand and then dumping it.
L really loves to watch his dad make sand molds, he's so interested in the process.  He helps pat the sand in the mold and then his dad will put the mold on the sandbox.  L loves to smoosh them into the sand then.  :)  We've had so much fun with him in the sandbox lately!
