Hoser

Our little guy can't get enough of the hose, and I can't get enough pictures to capture his absolute joy when he gets to play with the hose. It's fun to watch him get braver as he tries a drink from the hose, gets a shot of cold water up his nose and yet dives in again for another try. He is also getting good at responding to requests based just on words with no gesturing. For example, when he was playing with the hose, I asked him if he could water mama's pink flowers and he dragged the hose over to the right pot. The power of a baby's brain to learn language is pretty amazing to watch. Makes me wish I had been a brain researcher. That may have something to do with the fact that I had to work all weekend and am fantasizing about alternative careers.
