Only a few mud puddles.

Check it out. We've got mud puddles...


And gutters that are so full that they create a waterfall over the side of our roof....


It's not exactly the landscaping of our dreams...but it sure made a fun evening for the kids! Curvy Road saw his brother and sister out playing and wanted to try it too. He was timid, but quickly joined in the muddy splashes.

Speaking of him, I need to devote a whole post to him sometime soon. He's become quite the devious little guy. He's always into something he shouldn't be, but always with a huge grin on his face that fools even the most experienced Grandmas. Everyone thinks he is so cute, but if they only saw his craziness. Since we moved, his life consists of only three things: following me around whining to be held or fed, getting into trouble, and being completely careless and wide open! Anyone remember Katharine Bednar? We have her twin here. He's fallen down the stairs more times than I care to count without a care in the world. He just saunters right over the edge. He's definitely giving me a run for my money...and to think that he was my most quiet, calm baby. Things have changed!

We have similar gutter issues, not fun for the adults, but a great time for kids. Glad you are enjoying your new home.

my kids LOVE to play in the rain puddles. I have to admit, I don't mind it much myself. So glad you are enjoying your house.
