Did Step 2 puke on your lawn or what? Or did the Burgh just get invaded by plastic?

And, damn skippy! that girl is just getting even cuter, if that's possible. Where's the Dora tat?

Sarah O. said...

Your child has the most wonderfully expressive face!

And frightfully strong spirit.

She's a keeper.

Colleen said...

oops! I thought that soggy pic from the last post was her in her jammies after a bath! Guess I fogot that we're the only parents that punish our children by forcing their tight jammies on their undried bodies after a bath.

and I was all "Near!.....FAR!!!!....Near!.....FAR!" while scrolling through the pics.

Mommy to those Special Ks said...

Best story EVER! :)

Beth from the Funny Farm said...

OMGawwsh... she looks like she had a BLAST today!

Honestly, she is really, really photogenic. Hope you had a great day!

Kathy said...

#2, 12, and 15 are my favorites!!! Someone had a GOOD time this weekend. What a cutie.

Mommy Cracked said...

I love that little tongue hanging out!! Ha-ha! I'll bet she slept good after all of that, huh?

Pam said...

and a great story it is!

Debbie Yost said...

Alexis can tell me a story anytime! What a cutie.

Feener said...

water play is so much fun !!

CassJustCurious said...

I want to come play! That looks like SO much fun.

Kellie said...

Don't you just love the water table? I mean...don't you just love how your kid loves the water table? (Our's is still filled with oatmeal. Not warm enough for water fun :( ).

So..uh...what time should Morgan and I be there to play?

:)

FireMom said...

We'll be right over.

Well, once BB is better.

Or something.

nikki said...

Dude, awesome pictures!

How drenched did Mommy get?

Mandy said...

Looks so fun I want to join her! We're loving that the weather is finally getting warm enough to do such things around here, too! Yay for summer!!!

Mary said...

Can I bring Thomas over to play at your house? That just looks way to fun :)

wheelsonthebus said...

Gotta love warm weather fun. What a cutie!

Sarah Brooks said...

Looks like fun!

Lisa said...

I love that she laughed when she got splashed--my younger girl screams and it drives me crazy!
Looks like you had a perfect day!

OHmommy said...

we totally deserve the weather.

she is a cutie!

Marmarbug said...

She is so dang cute! But aren't you starting wet t-shirts for her a bit soon?

Kathryn said...

I love days like those!

Lainey-Paney said...

Well, that poor child. She just doesn't have enough toys, now does she???

*very cute pictures!*

All Adither said...

She's a little water lover, isn't she?

Catwoman said...

That child seems unhappy, miserable and in need of dry clothes.

Please ship her to North Texas ASAP, where she will be provided with love and taught the true meaning of hockey love (Go Leafs and Sens!)

Misty said...

quite possibly the best story I've read in a long while! Such dramatic pause. Such a climactic ending...

I need a splash pool...

Tranny Head said...

Um - you know you're guilty of doing the picture-only post in lieu of doing a "real" post, now, too, right? Indeed, you've ripped me a new one for using this same tactic.

Though I must confess - I approve wholeheartedly of these photos.

Stephanie said...

There is something special about a toddler and water isn't there? She's precious! AFF told me how great your blog was, and I must say I agree! She didn't however, tell me how adorable your little cutie pie was! Precious!

Tammy said...

I love it that she crawled into the splash table! Too cute!

MomOnTheGo said...

You captured the joy and surprise so well. We made do with the hose this weekend. I'm hoping for warm weather this weeked to give us an excuse to get out our turtle pool. Or I'll take a weekend when I don't get sick ...

Birdie said...

this little lady knows how to have fun! You're mighty pro with that camera there too.

Wonderful World of Weiners said...

And by DIE A LITTLE INSIDE you mean you fall more and more in love with my blog...right?

Hallie :)

Karen said...

Looks like fun! Love the action shots. Seriously, if Mr. Canon ever wants an affair I'll be glad to have him.

Melissa said...

Adorable!

SHELL said...

SO I GUESS IT SAFE TO SAY SHE WILL BE GOING IN THE SPRINKLER AT DAYCARE THIS YEAR. LOL

Elaine A. said...

That last picture is full on preciousness!!

So, is that her swimsuit for this summer? Just checking...

just jamie said...

That girl knows how to party! Where did she learn that?

That girl knows how to party! Where did she learn that?

just jamie said...

Yeah, I guess that needed to be said twice. Duh.

Kathy Gillen said...

The drops of water float through the air the way her smile soars on the screen. Thanks for the story.

Tootsie Farklepants said...

OMG! You can totally tell she was trying to get you and then fumbled!

the planet of janet said...

there is NOTHING on this planet like a wet, happy toddler!

Jenty said...

LOL, looks like she had a ball!

pam said...

The sixth picture made me laugh out loud! A little devil girl picture.. Where'd she get that look Mommy??

Elisa said...

oh my, your toddler and mine are kindred spirits, LOL

Mishi/Secret Agent Mama said...

Since I've met her once, the next time I see her I will squeeze her, but not in a bad-squeeze kind of way like my uncle squeezed Mikey that one time. That just wasn't right, but .... he ain't right, so....

:P

Flea said...

Those are the best pictures EVER. I have one of my Little Guy about that age, buck naked, covered in mud. It's the best. :)

honeywine said...

That is so cute! Pascal is afraid of his unfortunately. He thinks it's some sort of torture device designed to make him play alone. :)

Queen Mommy said...

BEYOND fabulous!!! Look at how much fun she is having!!! Nothing is better than the giggles from kids having this much fun!

Poltzie said...

Good story, I love the ending :)

Holly said...

well isn't she having fun?! awesome.

allisonsays.com said...

Oh what a great story! I LOVE that her tongue is out in so many of the pictures!

Seriously awesome meeting you--I see a resemblance between you and Alexis now!

Jen said...

Dang, I love the enthusiasm that girl has for life! We gotta figure out if I'm moving closer to you, because I wanna come play with all that stuff!

Cecily R said...

Oh, I love her. And that you loom over her with a camera for everyday stuff like I do with my kids. These are WONDERFUL shots!!!

Lulu said...

I thinkie somebody likies the water...

caramama said...

I'm so totally in love with your child! My favs are the 6th one and the 12th one!

Your yard looks like so much fun. I want to come over and play.
