First sprinkler moment

Okay, so this update is long over due! These pictures were taken a month ago, but I still think they are cute and want to share the story.

It was a warm day in June and it all started with Chris watering the flowers out front. Oliva was very interested in what he was doing. She and I walked closer to the hose so she could see what Daddy was doing. After she got to touch the water coming out, Chris would lightly spray her which she really enjoyed. I suddenly remembered that I bought her a sprinkler last summer, so we hooked it up for her. Of course we had to play in it...clothes and all!!

Olivia is cautiously approaching the sprinkler.

Here she realizes that she can stop the sprinkler from spinning around.

It was great watching her trying to catch the water with her hands!!

She definitely loves the water!

By now, her clothes are soaked...

...but she is still loving every minute of this!

Mom decided to show Olivia how she could take a drink from the sprinkler.

Here she gives it a try...
She tried numerous times and each time she got more and more water down the front of her.
We had tons of fun and she still enjoys the water!
