Boys & Dirt

I am not sure that I will ever really understand why boys love dirt so much, but I am getting a new appreciation as a Mommy of a little boy. I had no idea this love for dirt would start so young!

Clint was working on something outside and Hunter was "helping" him. Clint said Hunter kept himself entertained for 20 mins by simply playing in the dirt....

Then Hunter decided he wanted to "help" Mommy by moving the mulch around.

Evident by the trail he left...

But then he really did help me. I was trimming all of my plants and picking weeds in our front flowerbed. As I got something to add to our pile, I would hand it to Hunter and he would walk it over to our pile. Then when we were done for the day he helped me walk our pile over to the trash can. He liked to constantly remind me that "ants will bite you." I guess we have told him that a few times.

My handsome helper :)

Oops....I knew that would only last so long. He got distracted by the doodle bugs. HAHA! He has such a great eye. I showed him doodle bugs ONCE, and now he finds them everywhere! He doesn't get that from his Mommy!

I guess boys will be boys! :)
