A Day at the Fountains

Today I took Thomas to the Fountains which is a really cool park that's here where we live-its's aprk by the marina that has these jetlike fountains that blast up from the ground for the kids to splash and play in -kinda like sprinklers only more fun!The weather was a mild 75 degrees and suny -perfect park weather,and Tom was having a real bear of a day, so after school, I packed some lunch, and some juice bags and snacks and madea picnic for Thomas and I and headed down to Marina Jacks to the Fountains for an afternoon of some fun in the sun. He had a ball! He got some interaction with some kids at the park, then played with the babies in the baby section{ he LOVES lil abies which makes me feel SOOOO good about knowing hes gonna be a great big brother when the baby comes- hes SOOO gentle when it comes to babies}Then we went to play in the fountains with our bathing suit-me I stayed dry and snapped pictures and just enjoyed watching him have all the fun!;)He was alil leery at first as last time we came here was last year and he had a nasty accident where he slipped on the water on the steps and fell down 12 steps and scraped himself up real goodand I got yelled at for not watching him- what was I gonna do/ catch him? I can't catch him falling down wateery stairs_its one of those things... but he did just fine- he karate chopped the water streams and had a ball this time and climbed on the statues like nothing ever happened- My lil monkey! Glad we came - was a real nice day- and by nighttime- he passed out and slept like a log!! mission accomplished and daddy had a nnice peaeful house all to himself to get his crazy workday accomplished- there's always a method to my madness...;)
