experimentation

Madeline love LOVE loves water. If there is water around, she wants to play in it. Great for us when it's bathtime or pooltime, not so great when we're trying to get somewhere in a hurry and she is drawn to the downspouts and grimy street puddles. We're learning to cope with her addiction.

It was a nice, hot summer day, so I set her up on the backporch with a basin of water and various kitchen utensils and containers. She splashed, poured, funneled and sprayed water all over the place until that basin was empty. Good times!

(No, that's not a real block of cheese in the background. That is a cheesehead hat given to me by the Green Bay Packers since I was part of the design team for the refurbishment/reconstruction of their stadium.)
