Tadpoles!

We went to Covington and Richmond this weekend.  While we were at mom's house, Kristen took me and Will on a hike to search for tadpoles.  She knew about a small wetlands area on Pott's Creek so we walked up there to check for tadpoles in a small pond.  Will was very exited about it so luckily we found some!  They were so plentiful that Will was able to catch them simply by scooping his net in the water.  It was a muddy walk but we were fortunate to stay dry - it started raining as soon as we got back in the car!

After visiting in Covington we drove to Richmond to visit Aunt Andrea and some other friends.  Will had fun playing with Breeann at Laurie and Bryon's on Sunday evening.  We spent time with Andrea on Monday while Jerry was in meetings for work.  Will loved Squeaky, her cat, and he also enjoyed the fish and waterfalls at Bass Pro Shops where we had lunch.  His other favorite part was the strawberries and watermelon Andrea gave him.  She bought him his own personal size watermelon but he spotted the big one on her counter and asked if he could have that one instead!  It was hard not to laugh while I explained to him why that was rude!

We happened to catch this little salamander while we were scooping up tadpoles. 

Will loves feeding the tadpoles but he always tells me he doesn't want them
to grow into frogs because he doesn't want to let them go.
