Give a kid a bucket.....

....and he wants cake.


HUH?!?!!? did I confuse you yet?

This weekend we had a puppy pool party with my dad's cousins Jerry and Julie and their lab Jeb, along with their daughter Jen (see below) and her lab puppy Lola. In addition to the 12 pounds of meat they brought, they also made a dirt cake.

{notice the kicking legs? the huge smile? the shining eyes? all that equals toddler love!}

Eddie loved this dirt cake so, so much. To the point that he continually went to the counter and begged for more.....screamed for more.....cried and tantrumed for more. The boy loves his dirt cake, people.

Fast forward to yesterday when Eddie and I went to visit some more of my family at the lake. There was water...there was sand...there were buckets. And of course, he points to one and says 'dur caaake?'
