The Fosses

This past week Erik wanted to get out the croquet set. He couldn’t remember what it was called so he described it…”you know mom, the thing with the balls that you hit through the things?”… until I figured out what he was talking about.

So, I got it out and both kids had fun.

Adam didn’t really do much hitting the balls with the mallet. He mostly used the mallet as a horsey and hopped around the yard with it in between his legs.

This is our little scientist learning about gravity and fluid dynamics with the croquet balls.

Our sand box doesn’t actually have any sand in it right now, but that doesn’t stop the boys from digging in the dirt! (Our neighbor’s cats used it as a litter box so now we have to replace the sand.)

Erik likes to make “rain” by squirting water straight up.

Adam really loves to swing. Erik does too, but Adam is really into it at the moment.

He will randomly get it into his head that he wants to swing during the day…and pitch a really big fit when we don’t got outside and do it right that minute. That’s Adam for you :)
