We live in military housing they laid seed in the front yard not sure when it hasn't started growing however the soil has huge rocks in it is a mess so we will reseed so we have a nice lawn not a rocky one. But, in the back fenced in yard they laid sod. Ok, so it rained here once it was more like misting and now the whole backyard is like a wet carpet. We were thinking that aerating it would help any other suggestion. I will be doing child care out there in a few months and I hate it so stiff and soppy.

Thanks
