Boys will be boys!


Yes...it was 59 degrees outside and this is Cody and the neighbor kid splashing in the mud! I was inside doing laundry when Kaylee comes running in stating that "Cody is in his swimsuit, OUTSIDE!"
m: No, I didn't tell him he could do that!
K: Well, he is...go see!
So I went to the dining room window and sure enough...there he was, getting all wet! I immediately opened the window and said:
m: Who told you that you could do this?
C: Dad knows...
m: Where is Dad?
C: In the garage...
I storm out to the garage and say:
m: Did you tell Cody he could be in his swimsuit in the mud?
J: I told him I'm not responsible....(hmmmmm...what could I say then?)

Then I thought to myself...Darlena...he is a BOY and if this is what is fun for a few moments...so be it! I sometimes get so caught up in him being so perfect...good behavior...but after all he was being good and just having some fun! So, I went in and got my camera and captured some fun moments...the neighbor kid was in on this whole thing as well! Kaylee decided to get her suit on and she made one splash and returned back inside with a HOT bath! Anyway, thought this funny and I told Cody I was going to post this! HA!

We got some good rain this weekend...



On Saturday we went down to our local Down syndrome society to get Brayden photographed for some new materials, pamphlets, booklets, photos for the office...etc. A friend of mine was there that also has a little boy with Down syndrome and does beautiful photography...http://www.portraitsbyj.org/FADSSPortraits/index.html
...I just have to share this little slide show she put together.. ..You have to check out some of the beautiful kids and that are here locally. She has a couple shots of Brayden on here as well...He was so sleepy but he did great! I have been so blessed to have all of these parents to network with. They are amazing families...and I have learned so much from them...

Funny mud story...I too tend to get a little too worked up about "messes". Good for you for letting it go. Don't know if I could. :0)
