The summer heat is in full effect in Texas. Being a family that loves the outdoors, we do what we can to safely get outside. Lately, in an effort to keep our little girl smiling, that means exploring in our backyard in the afternoon when we have shade from the house.
There are several moist areas in our yard that make the perfect spot for amphibians to cool off. We’ve found frogs both big and small hanging out in the yard, and as long as they’re small enough, Avery doesn’t mind when I put one up to her face.
She actually loves chasing them across the yard and picking them up to bring them back to our garden area. I love seeing her interacting with nature, and hopefully, as she grows, so will her tolerance for catching cool bugs, reptiles, and animals.
A big thanks to Darren and his never dull #MySundayPhoto linkup. Check out his blog full of beautiful pics and join in on the #MySundayPhoto action!
Stay cool!!
What a brilliant smile, but she does look like she has caught the sun, Clio lending a helping hand for Coombe Mill
Thank you, Clio. Yes, we try to catch a little bit of sun every day we can. 🙂
Beautiful smile, my girls love picking up creatures they find in the garden.
Thank you for linking up
So brave of her! I am not a fan of holding frogs =) #mysundayphoto
