Lovin' the Sandbox

Owen loves being outside and most of all the dirt. He'll run around for a bit but he always comes back to flower beds and starts playing in the dirt (and sometimes trying to eat it). So I thought it'd be better for him to have a sandbox. We looked at the prices for a plastic one and they were just plain expensive. We thought about Barry building one but he's too busy at the moment. Anyway, Owen's Uncle David and Aunt Joni were so kind to let us borrow their dinosaur sandbox they aren't using. We picked it up Wednesday and filled it up when we got home. Owen loved it! He played for at least 30 minutes before he wanted to get out. He was covered in sand from head to toe so we gave him a bath afterward. I usually freak out about him getting dirty but I don't mind when I can watch him and not chase after him.
