Helper

At some point...between August and March....our kiddie pool blew over and filled with rain and leaves. Every other day I will comment to Lee, "We really need to empty that pool." Every other day since....probably November. I'm not sure what prompted it, but today we took on that challenge. Jacob was eager to help. I held him back as long as I could, but eventually gave in and accepted that he was going to get wet. I didn't get any of the really good stuff. He filled up the bucket a few times and dumped it right down the front of himself, screaming with glee the entire time! He had soooooo much fun. The disappointment overtook him when we were done and many tears were shed:(

Looks very productive! I love how Lee is working away with a tiny sand toy while Jacob is wandering aimlessly with the bucket! That is great! I was laughing. Poor Lee.

That was so cute! I too thought it was funny that Lee was using that little shovel and Jacob had the big bucket! Too cute!
Miss you guys!
Did we mention that we could be heading out for FT Campbell, KY??
