Wet n Wild

It might only be the beginning of May in Flroida, but it is HOT!  Some days I feel like summer is already here and the warm temperatures make it difficult to play outside with a littloe one for very long- unless there is water!  Warner and I ventured to the splash area at Bayfront Park for the first time this week.  Warner had a great time and enjoyed playing in the water.  After that was done aka mom is getting attacked by love bugs- it was time to go.  As I picked up my soaking wet little one, he proceeded to scream and kick as he did not want to be taken out of the water.  I began thinking to myself that this is probably the first ot many times like this-oh joy:)  After getting the little guy dried off and dressed, I decided to be a nice mommyand let him play on the shaded playground.  Easy enough, right?  Wrong!  As I am about to put W down, I notice the lovebogs everywhere!  They are covering everything!  I peeked inside the tunnel the babies can crawl through and it was covered with lovebugs.  Sorry buddy, no playground tody.  Well, that sparked screaming fit #2.  Oh well, time to go buddy, maybe next time!

"I'm gonna get that water if it's the last thing I do!"

"Yeah that's right, I'm the king of the water!"

"Hey Mr. Walrus, look who's bigger!"

"I know it's gross, but I must know what it tastes like!"

 It also tired him out and I am pretty sure he fell asleep in the car.  It's hard for me to know exactly because he is still rear facing, but he was pretty quiet and still.  I thought "Score!  He will sleep all the way home nd I'll transfer him from the carseat to the crib and he will take his nap."  Well, even the most well-designed plans go astray.  When I pulled into the garage and took a peak in the back seat, there he was smiling at me wide awake!  So we played for awhile and I put him down to sleep.  It took him an hour to fall asleep which NEVER happens! But he did sleep and all was right with the world again:)

Happy Boy at home!
