Coolest MOM Evveeerrr!!

I know I post a million pictures of my boys getting muddy and running through puddles, but I love it and they have so much fun doing it.  I'm sorry if I take too many pictures, but I hate writing a lot so I speak through pictures.  :)  I have to admit, but won't be much surprise to many, that my attention span.... well is ...... not very long, let's just leave it at that.  When people send me emails and it has A LOT of writing I tend to get bored with it rather quickly.  If someone is telling a story and it DRAGS on and on and on, well you get the point, I get bored.  So this is my LONG explanation of why I take so many pictures and don't write as much as I probably should.  Plus I hate making people "listen" to me.  On that note I will continue with LOTS of pictures and short explanations.  Enjoy.

I let the boys outside because the sun was cracking through the clouds and Aidan always gets an itch to get out and play.  I think it was 2 minutes later I found them already at the other end of the yard soaked in muddy water.

They grabbed rocks and threw them in the puddle trying to splash the other.

Ethan was forced to get this picture taken and was ready to go inside.  He HATES being cold.

This picture says a million things about Aidan.  This fits his personality to the T.  Dirty, venturous, happy, fun, no fear, play outside till my fingers fall off little boy.

After it rained the other day the sun broke out and shined down like crazy.  I snapped this picture of the steam coming off the ground.  

I thought it was pretty cool.

Two boys so different yet so a like.  Here they are with their new blankets and matching pillows.  

Boys sharing a box and Not fighting over it.  Yay!!

Ok so this is why I'm the Coolest mom ever!!  Today my landlord was gathering up some stuff that needed to go to the dump.  I was helping her out and as I lifted some wood off the ground I found this nasty looking thing under it.  I instantly yelled for Ethan to come and get it.  Naturally he picked it up and went to show Vance.  

Now we have a pet Salamander!!!!  Got rid of the frog and now I find this.  I know I'm disgusting, but the boys think it's the coolest thing ever.  That has to put me in the running for Coolest mom ever, right??  

At least it walks pretty slow and I don't have to worry about it jumping on me.  I wonder what other creature I will come across.
