Keeping Cool

Lately the temperatures have been in the high 90's, so we have been doing what we can to keep cool. Since Joseph likes to drink the pool water I decided that we would have more fun filling a tub with hose water. 


Joseph has always enjoyed being in water, but isn't much for playing in it. As you can see he would rather eat the toys than splash in the water.



Today Joseph explored ice for the first time. I got the idea to dye the ice from Growing A Jeweled Rose. Joseph wasn't too sure about it at first, but once he figured out that he could put it in his mouth he started to enjoy it a little more.



Yum...

Fort of Fun

Today we decided to extend the life of our Fisher Price gym as well as get some more use out of our moving boxes. We took the idea from The Imagination Tree to poke holes in the top of the box and stick burp rags, toys, and socks through. We tried putting a blanket over the arch on the gym but Joseph wanted to stand up and got frustrated with it in his face. 

Luckily Daddy was there to save him from the evil blankie.
