I took this picture yesterday afternoon because it basically represented the Toddler version of running through the sprinkler. They lined-up along the wall and shouted encouragement for one person to run and then they'd all cheer. As you can see in the picture Riley is apparently up to bat and ready to run! Cooper was the only one who ran directly over the top of the sprinkler and also stopped there a couple of times. Nora, on the other hand, did not get touched by a drop of water! :)
Here's a picture of what the sun looked like while we were eating breakfast. Cooper saw it and was saying, "moon moon moon!" And they were all pretty convinced it was the moon so that was fine with me! Anyone reading this outside of Missoula - the sun is somewhat blocked today by a smoky haze! By the time we went outside it was shining brighter. Mia still called it the "moon" and Nora was not impressed!
They were doing lots of running and having fun this morning. Riley was saying to Mia, "I'm going to take you to the doctor!" However, as you can see by the picture, she may not be in complete control here! :)
Cooper was hitting Mia and I was having him give her a love and a "gentle touch." (He knows exactly what that means and will gently rub their arm when I ask him to give a gentle touch.) He was still whimpering a minute or two later and Mia was saying to him, "It's ok Buddy!" :) I'm not sure what message that was sending, but it was still pretty cute!
Mia was riding her bike with her eyes closed and head tipped back. I'm thinking "this is not good!" I don't think "closed eyes" was a contributing factor, but shortly after that she took a tumble on the sidewalk and got a scratch just above her left eyebrow. It's not a deep scratch (did not bleed), but I applied a cold cloth with a little ice pack in hopes that it would not swell. And so far it hasn't, but we'll see what it looks like after nap time.
