ohhhhh...a mess

Finn loves to say "ohhh a mess" or "it's messy". He has the opportunity to say this many times in a day because he seems to be constantly making messes. I don't clean up after him much and have him do it so he knows that it's not fun cleaning up a mess, but he enjoys saying "mess" so much that I think he's missing the point.

We went for a walk down to Grandma and Grandpa's new house in town and met some very enticing-looking mud puddles. We were able to avoid them on the way down, but I couldn't run fast enough to save him from them on the way home. Once he was in them, I just let him go. There was no saving him at that point and he had so much fun!

Here he is sitting on the back porch showing me how messy his shoes are.


And now his hands.
