Rain, Rain Go Away!

The weather started out ok today, but drastically turned quite nasty! It was dark as night and raining in sheets! So, needless to say, it was essentially a stay at home day for the kids and I today. Now, big deal, you say....well, hold on a minute! Keeping two 14 month olds entertained and out of trouble for hours on end is a trick! I must admit, however, it is much better than it was a month ago when they were not walking yet. Now, just walking around keeps them entertained! HA!

The major rain moved in around 3 pm. So the kids ate their snack and stared out the window at the happenings outside. Well, that only lasts so long...so the little monkeys began climbing the furniture! Oh joy! These photos show Madison and Riley being total goofballs on a chair in our living room...




Well, that did not last too long, so off to the kitchen they went! They hit up just about the only drawer left without a "kid lock" on it and the fun began! They both were having a blast banging everything, including each other, with the wooden spoons...




Riley found that being under the table was kind of like a fort and chilled there for a while. Madison was trying on all the baskets as hats!




As they had begun to exhaust all of the play options in the kitchen, one more seemed to become available! Riley decides that if there is cool stuff in the drawer, he should be in there too! In the meantime, Madison found some new, cool plastic bowls to check out!
Yes, we were forced to spend most of the day inside, but I must say, a fun time was had by all! However, I am hoping the sun shines tomorrow...
