Evan and I headed over to one of our neighborhood parks, Herndon Park, on Monday to spend some time with our friends Abby, Quinn, and Jonas, and Hilary, Brian, and Carson. So, we were all having a great time playing at the playground. Keep in mind, it had rained very hard the night before. Well, before you know it, Quinn notices a fairly large puddle behind the picnic tables at the back of the park. Soon, all of the boys are tromping around in the puddle. Evan, still a little unsteady on his feet every once and a while, plops down on his bottom in the puddle. Sigh. Shoes, socks, pants, everything is soaked.
He doesn't seem too bothered, so we continue to hang out at the park. Mr. Wet Pants is wandering around quite unconcerned by his dampness. Then, the unfortunate situation of the loose pants kicks in. It was the first day we had worn these pants because they had been a little big. But, they matched with the shirt so well that, as I do with many Evan pants, I rolled them up at the waist and at each leg. They worked fairly well for the first part of the day, but the dip in the puddle was too much for them. Soon, Evan was wandering around the park with his wet pants around his ankles, diaper flashing the world, with his pregnant mom following him around constantly hiking them up. It was probably a pretty comical picture for the other park patrons. Fortunately, we were nearing the end of our park excursion anyway, so this did not go on for too long.
I just had to share. You never quite know how outings are going to go when a toddler is around!
(Okay, so perhaps Evan wasn't the only one who was a little damp-Carson and Quinn look a bit wet around the ankles themselves!)
(This does not look like a good idea Evan!!)
