On a much lighter note...

I first should apologize to any environmentalists out there because this post contains wasteful use of water. Enter the spray bottle.

Brendan loves my spray bottle and asks for it (by pointing and grunting) whenever it happens to be out in sight. Today it wasn't worth the screaming and tears if he doesn't get it, so we headed outside so he could spray to his heart's content.

I love the look of effort on his face in this picture.

A car happened to drive by and he held up his prize possession to show it off.

He had a grand ol' time and I had a good time sitting on the porch steps watching him and cheering him on.
