We met at a park yesterday that had this great water fountain on the playground. The kids figured out that they could turn it all the way and it would shoot out onto the sand, and stay running until you turned it off! So they dug a huge trench and worked hard at filling it up. Eli thought this was great fun and jumped right in, getting totally soaked in the process. He loved it!!
The kids would take turns filling up cups and water bottles and carrying water over to the further parts of the trench. Eli was carrying around this little spoon from when we got gelato the other day and it was so funny watching him dig with it.
This boy LOVES the water!
This is a similar position to right before he tipped forward and face planted... this happened twice while we were there.
Happy, sopping wet, muddy boy

(there were lots more on the playground - it was a good turnout!)
I know it's mean to take a picture after your child has fallen face-first into wet sand, but it was too funny not to :) Poor guy! He wasn't happy to have it in his eye, nose, and mouth.
I ended up getting wet and filthy by the end from holding him - he was freezing in his totally wet clothes! The seat of his shorts was covered in wet sand.
We stripped him down before driving home.

I love the face plant picture! I totallky would have done the same thing :-)! It's hilarious you and your friend showed up as twins too...and you don't look pregnant at all!
I LOVE Eli's madras shorts. He looks like he just stepped out of a magazine. That is, of course, befor the face plant into the mud ;)
