Uh-Oh...Here come's Spot...err...the Devinator!

Laura and the kids came over for a little while the other day...the day after I let the boys play in the mud. Devin and Gracie went down for naps and we sent the other kids outside to play, with strict instructions that they were to NOT go into the mud under any circumstances. They were doing great, and then Devin woke up. He saw the kids playing outside and grabbed for his shoes to join them. We sent him out without hesitation, not realizing that the wasn't told not to go into the mud...
All of a sudden Micah looks outside and starts running toward Devin. Laura and I see that he got into the mud, and Micah is sending him to us. I don't want him in the house all muddy, and if he's going to play outside, might as well let him just finish playing before cleaning him up. Well, I didn't realize his hands were covered in mud too, and after a minute Micah is asking me why I didn't clean him up-and I realize that he's now rubbed his face. Poor guy!
Well, of course now I had to grab my camera and he just is looking at me all pathetic-like. Hey-if the Devinator is around then Mom get's to take pictures :)
I got him all cleaned up, but all he really wanted was for me to put his shoe back on...that's all he wanted from the beginning! Oy....boys!
