Melita's Weekend

As Melita gets older we're finding it fun to figure out new things to show her and do with her. Last Sunday in particular was jam packed full of fun. First thing Sunday morning, we packed up Bungy and Melita and headed down to the park to the spring fed wading pool. It was perfect timing as it was already steaming hot and because it was so early we had the place to ourselves for a few minutes. If you haven't already figured it out, Melita is nuts about the water. She had a blast and let out millions of squeals and giggles to prove it.

Later that day, I needed some help keeping Melita out of the kitchen so I could make homemade chicken enchiladas. Something about toddlers underfoot trying to reach the countertops and hot oil makes me nervous. Anyway, it was Reagan's job to keep her occupied. It was proving tougher than expected because lately she just wants to be up in my business. Well, Reagan is not only a genius but he is an expert fort builder! Melita had so much fun she forgot all about me. Success!



The perfect ending for the perfect day came as we were finishing up Melita's bath. She likes to sit in the bottom of the shower while the water drains and try to catch the water going down the drain. It's not unusual for her to be in a squatting position while she does this. However, after this, I think we will be a little more suspect when we see her squatting when she's naked.
