Last week we were working in the yard and the ice cream man came around. It really brought back memories for Mike and I of our childhood. All the kids that were outside went and got their money for ice cream, and then crowded around the truck. Jake just stood on our lawn like a deer in headlights. In his wildest dreams he probably never thought a “truck” would bring around “ice cream”(his two most favorite things next to goldfish and Home Depot). So we took him over and he picked out a push-up. Remember push-ups? Definitely a kid treat.So we sat him down on the lawn to enjoy his push-up while we continued with the yard work. About 10 minutes later I looked over and that is when I decided to take these pictures! He enjoyed every minute of that push up and was VERY disappointed when it was gone. We just let him make a mess and it was so cute to see the looks on his face as he devoured this new found treat. As he was finishing his push-up, I was hosing off the windows and he wanted me to spray him. So in the end, he had push-up all over him and was soaked from the hose but very, very happy. We are excited for it to be getting warmer so we can spend some more fun time outside.
By the way, save your pennies for push-ups ~ there has been quite an increase since we were kids! =)

That's awesome. It's fun to let them get all dirty and sticky every once in a while. I give the kids these tufo icecream bars (I know, sounds gross, but they are pretty good)every now and then after dinner to eat outside and they go nuts.
We love seeing these "blogs!" They are perfect journal entries! A real little "mini" story.............
