Rain, Rain Go Away!

It was raining like crazy here earlier this week. The other morning Landon wanted to go outside with his chalk. It was just a light rain at that point so I allowed him to use the chalk on the back porch since it is covered. It wasn't long before the down pours came so I had to bring Landon inside. He spent the rest of the day carrying his chalk in his hands saying, "in a minute sun come out, please in a minute". He desperately wanted to draw with his chalk outside. Landon went to play in his room and I didn't think anything of it. A little while passes before I go to check on him. This is what I found:

Somebody really should keep an eye on him! I guess he found a way to use his chalk while it was raining outside. I then remembered that he had a chalk board in his art desk. I guess I realized that one a little too late! When Landon wasn't busy coloring on the carpet, we spent the rainy days playing around and being silly. There was a lot of bed jumping and wrestling. We also enjoyed acting out scenes from some of Landon's favorite movies.

Landon's "scared" face when he was pretending to go on a Heffalump trapping expedition.

Later on in the evening Landon was pretending to catch dinosaurs.

We also did a lot of reading and playing inside his Toy Story tent.

All of this playing was the cause for great big Landon smiles!
