Toads

We were eating lunch outside the other day and L started talking about seeing a frog.  I'm looking around and have no idea what he's talking about so I agree...then finally look down in the mud where he's pointing and there is a huge toad!!

 

I ran in to grab a bucket, and I'm not going to lie, I squealed a little when I finally caught it.  (Yes, I was a science teacher...).  I found a big bin and we dumped him in there and watched him try to jump out.  It looked like he had a broken arm (I SWEAR I didn't do it, my bucket never touched him!!). 

 

He tried his best to jump out but couldn't.  All of a sudden he was surrounded by a puddle, and I asked the boys what happened...when they realized he had peed they about fell over laughing.  Boys. 

 

We kept him until Z got home from school then watched him back to his family.  :)
