Watermelon

We were able to visit family a few weeks back and on one of those days, we visited my sister-in-law's family. It was a great opportunity to socialize and stretch our legs. Rebekah was having a blast with all of her cousins playing with toys and such. She can go up and down stairs easily, so we didn't worry about a gate or anything to the stairs down to the finished basement. At the top of the stairs was a pair of watermelons that we planned to eat after dinner. Rebekah seemed interested in them, but we didn't pay much attention to that since we figured they were "too big" for her to carry. Well, we were wrong. She loves balls and watching them bounce is one of her favorite pastimes. I guess she thought that the watermelon looked enough like a ball that she'd give it a shot. This is a photo of the aftermath of her attempting to bounce a watermelon down the stairs. At least it smelled really good.
