Gettin’ messy

The Allbritton boys are not at risk for Nature Deficit Disorder (as described by Richard Louv in his book Last Child in the Woods), that is for sure! They love the outdoors, getting dirty and just being out in the sunshine. And, oh yeah, any excuse to get messy works for them!

When Chase and I walk outside, he immediately points to the sandbox and says “pl…pl” for play.

I dumped some old potting soil in our need-to-be landscaped spot next to the house and Tate saw it right away, gathering his supplies and started digging.

Chase is just starting to work with the fork…he has a ways to go.

Here is Tate outside helping Daddy with the footing for the shed, it is complete and shed assembly is next.

OK, Chase isn’t exactly messy in this picture, but it is cute. He is about to eat waffle pieces and his yummy morning milk. Breakfast is his favorite meal of the morning! :)
