From plants to playtime with Papa

My dad loves to teach Tyson new things. He likes to take "adult" items or activities, show Ty how to do it, and just see what happens (injury, mess, you name it and it happens eventually). Yesterday's lesson started out teaching Ty how to water Nana's potted plants on the back patio. It turned into a water adventure using different setting on the hose nozzle, which resulted in a soaking wet child and a laughing-his-head-off Papa. I love it. Enjoy the story unfolding through pictures...

Teaching him how to water Nana's flowers so carefully.

Hmm, let's try the jet stream on the hose...

Well, might as well stick your hand in the jet stream of the hose and see what happens.

My dad is starting to chuckle, seeing where this is headed...the splatters start.

Hair getting wet, water running down the arm...

Next step is obviously to put the water right in the hair.

And egg the child on. Not sure who is having more fun here.

The face of pure soaking wet joy.


Ty loves his lessons from Papa. They are usually messy, always fun, and leave everyone laughing. We've been living here almost a month, and we will miss it.
