Mud Quest in the backyard

An alternate title might have been "This is why I'm happy to take hand me downs that have stains on them." Maybe Levi is trying to tell us that this summer bath schedule just isn't working for him. More than once a week would be nice and the swimming pool doesn't count, Mom. It all started so innocently with less than 2 Tbsp worth of mud in the back of the Tonka truck.

and 5 seconds later, it becomes this.

Then, I believe he lost touch with reality and began to think he was licking chocolate pudding.

What have I done to myself....I'm turning brown!!!!!

This chocolate pudding is a little grainy...okay a LOT grainy.

Okay, I had to put a stop to it. He was licking his fingers but then fussing when the grass and pebbles and dirt was stuck on his tongue. G-R-O-S-S.

Oh and after cleaning Levi up and going back outside, I see that Ava refuses to be outdone and shows we how proud she is of herself for burying her body in the muddy sandbox. Lovely.
