Rainy Morning

This morning we got all geared up for a walk to the mailbox. This process includes getting Reese to put on shoes (socks usually optional), getting Paige into the Bjorn, harnessing the dog, remembering my keys (and my own shoes), and prepping the tricycle. We made it as far as the end of the driveway before the skies opened up and poured on us.

In an effort to get Reese to blow off some steam, I asked her if she wanted to play in the rain. I explained that Paige and I couldn't go outside, but that we'd sit at the door at watch her. She quickly donned her new rain coat, rain boots, and umbrella and played outside in the rain for about twenty minutes. The rain was coming down steadily but not hard and it was about 70 degrees outside.
