Rainy Days and Mondays

This Monday (and Tuesday) it POURED here in AZ. That is seriously so much fun for the Zonies because we never get rain. At least not often enough. As soon as Carter got home from preschool he wanted to get out his nifty Bob the Builder "simbrella" that Grammie got him and play in the rain. It was so darling. After a little bit, Jenna from across the street came out with her boys to play in the rain. We headed behind my house where there was a pool of water about 1 1/2 feet deep. It wasn't exactly sanitary but that's ok. :) The Brooke boys found a few frogs they were playing with while running around in the water. Carter went right along with them. (It made me really wish he had an older brother. At least he gets to BE an older brother.) We spent the next hour playing in the (muggy) 73 degree weather in the "pool" and with the frogs (who took quite a beating). Princess Addilyn even allowed me to put her on the ground. (I know, I'm shocked too!)

Princess Addilyn checking out the frog. Could he be Prince Charming? She decided no, and then smacked him on the head. Poor thing!

This was really the closest Carter would get to them. They scared him every time they jumped out of the Brooke boys' hands. Quick side note about the Brooke boys: they are THE CUTEST boys in the ENTIRE world. Their parents have done SUCH an amazing job with them. I hope Carter can be just like them. If you met their parents you would completely get it. Their parents are so awesome. I am already planning a way that we can end up as in-laws. I'm not kidding. Really. I'm not. Honestly. Not kidding. I L-O-V-E those 4 boys. (I also love their baby girl Chloe who Addi will someday be great friends with. Although Addi will have to drop the princess act because with 4 older brothers, Chloe is DEFINITELY not a princess!!)
