Just the Five of Us: Water hose obsession continues....

Kaden is still obsessed with the water hose and anytime we head outside he walks over to it and says "wawa" (or sometimes water). He has started walking over to our neighbor Julie's house in the evening and will go to her back door (where he can see her cats) and knocks on her door. He loves playing at her house because it's the opposite of being baby-proofed and he finds SO many things he doesn't get to play with at home. The other day he found her water hose (not hooked up) and carried it around with him outside. His other fun thing that he wants to do outside every day is walk across the street and go to the backyards of the houses across the street. He gets SO mad when we pick him up and take him back to our side of the street.

So... he found the hose

Hauled it from the back of Julie's house, down her driveway, across the street, into the grass area between the other townhomes...

went diagonally across the grass into the mulch, and used the mulch as a sidewalk...

made it the the neighbor's backyard (he LOVES this person's porch for some reason)

then headed to the woods behind the houses...

still pulling the hose...

coming back to Mommy...

and then back to the porch...

and then back to the woods again to check out a statue...

and was beyond happy when he realized there was a small collection of water in the statue's dress...

deeper into the woods...

and then back to the sidewalks on our side of the street...

up Julie's driveway...

to her garage...

and then just played with the hose in her driveway - he thought it was funny when I'd shake the hose....

just when he thought he couldn't have any more fun with the hose, I turned the water on!

watering the mulch...

and taking a drink...

Talbot was hot from playing frisbee, so I was trying to fill her frisbee with water so she could have a drink. He kept taking the frisbee and then throwing it on the ground. He thought it was really funny. Talbot didn't share his enthusiasm!
