Outdoor time!

It finally feels as if summer is here!  We've been spending a lot of time outdoors this week and are realizing that Chelsea is going to need  more outdoor toys.  Last summer she wasn't walking around yet so we didn't play outside a whole lot.  I have a feeling, if it were up to her, we'd practically live outside!

She LOVES helping me water our new sod and plants so I bought her a little toy watering can.  when we fill it with water (from the outside hose which sprays very cold water) she automatically dumps it on herself without batting an eye.  We also bought her a toddler camping chair and a plastic 'tub' that we've filled with sand for a makeshift sandbox.  We'll need some sort of water table / pool and some more toys, but it's a great start!

I took some pictures last night while we were hanging out in the backyard.  Her hair is incredibly crazy looking because I had just taken it out of pigtails and it definitely had a mind of its own.  There are also a couple great videos.  The first one is definitely a must watch.  Chelsea is playing with the water hose and sprays herself in the face and then proceeds to run away and biff it in the grass!  I can't believe I caught that on video :)  ENJOY!
