April Showers

Landon isn't the type of child that can be kept still. He loves to be outside and on the move even when it is raining. I see no harm in allowing him to play in the rain. As long as there is no thunder or lightning and the weather is still warm, then I'm all for him having a happy childhood filled with dancing in the rain and puddle jumping. I have fond childhood memories of playing in the rain and wading through the knee high runoffs of water at the bottom of our hill. I love re-living those moments with Landon.

Rain, Rain, Go Away!

Day....
after day....
Landon had to sit like this at the front door because of all of the rain. Every now and then there would be a slight break in the storms and he could go outside for a  quick minute. 
 After about the fourth day of straight rain I couldn't take seeing him sit by the door any longer so he was allowed out with the use of an umbrella. Sometimes you just have to play in the rain!

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!
