We had such a fun and busy weekend! I wasn't too sad to see it end because I need to get my life back in order…specifically this zoo we call our home.
Thursday night was beautiful so we went on a walk after dinner.
Yay for being old enough to ride in a big girl stroller and not in the infant carrier!
They requested to drive the Barbie Jeep on the walk. This is a 'Dad only activity.' Seriously, I can barely watch when they drive that thing, it makes me so nervous. They were supposed to be giving me a thumbs up, apparently Laney needs a bit of work on that ;). Thank you to our Texas (well, now California) friends, the Jensens for the hand me down Barbie Jeep. Cooper doesn't think twice about driving it around the neighborhood and I just love that.
The concrete pit is being cleaned up now and about to move on. We will miss that place!
We decided to go play at the elementary school playground.
Friday was our last day of vacation Bible school, more on that in another post. After Bible school we packed lunches and went to visit Mama Kelly.
Cooper always wants to mop her floors! For the record, he never wants to mop our floors. Mama was giving him mopping lessons.
Love that little shadow. He told my grandma to keep Chester (her dog) out of the house so the floors would stay clean :).
Friday night we met some neighbors at the pool for pizza and swimming. The kids had late and long naps so after swimming we went out for ice cream!
He was busy taking pictures (and staring at the girls across from us) while we waited for our ice cream.
She was so, so, so happy!
Saturday morning Coop and I went to SuperHero Saturday at a local kid/mom boutique. I had told Cooper about it the day before and he was so, so excited. He couldn't believe that Superman and Green Lantern were going to be there!
After prying him out of bed every morning for vacation bible school last week, he was in our bed at 7 on Saturday morning ready to go! He chose this shirt because it had Superman and Green Lantern on it.
He was a tad disappointed that Green Lantern was a girl.
Toss the bean bag at Joker.
Darts
Superman and Green Lantern had captured Mr. Freeze the night before and took all his popsicles for the kids!
Storytime! It was a really cute event and perfect for Cooper's age, he was in heaven.
I came home and worked on the playroom while the kids played with me. YIKES!
Love that Woody and Buzz still get lots of playtime almost 4 years later.
Cooper had tee ball pictures at 12:50 and a game at 1:30. It was a h-o-t day! Aunt Alli offered to come stay with the girls while I went to the game so they didn't have to be out in the heat and Laney could nap.
Playing in Laney's bed…my girls still in their pjs.
He had great hits this game. It was nice to be able to watch the game and not worry about entertaining the girls at the same time. Thanks Al!
After the game, we showered, packed and showed up fashionably late to Landree's 1st birthday party!!!!!! I can't believe this is the only picture I have from the party :(. She was so cute! The kids had a blast playing outside. Love that we can be a part of all the celebrations now and not just send gifts in the mail!
Adam and I left Landree's bash and headed to another. Our kids got to stay and have fun thanks to Grandma and Grandpa. We had a couple shower for my bff, Julie. She and Kieran are getting married next month, so excited!!!! It was a mexican themed shower with a margarita machine and taco food truck…doesn't get much better. I am so happy we live in the same city now!
The 3 of us had lots of fun at KU, specifically as hard-working bartenders ;).
Sunday morning Adam and I slept in until 9am!!!! We picked up the kids and met Bryson, Tara and kids at the Touch a Truck convention.
Who's this guy sporting all this Cardinals gear in KC???
The Touch a Truck convention is exactly what you would think. They have trucks and equipment of all kinds for kids to climb in and play on. The line for this combine was crazy long, but we waited. That is the 3 of them in there.
Uncle Bryson and Pippi sporting their pink polos!
Gunner, Cooper and Doodles in the back of the sheriff's car…let's hope we don't see this again.
He definitely enjoyed all of this more than his sister.
I would love to know what he was talking to that sheriff about. He was probably telling him about that yellow light I went thru the other night when he was petrified a police was going to follow us home and get me in trouble.
In the combine…impossible to get a pic of all 3 looking at the same time.
We headed home for some much needed naps after all that fun. Well, for Cooper and Piper anyway. This evening Dad took the kids and met the Jones' at the pool for pizza and swimming. No pics :(. I met my sis at the grocery store to shop for our sugar detox we are doing starting later this week. I.am.scared. Will post more about it later.
I pulled in the driveway just after the pool group. The skies were turning dark quick and the wind was blowing a storm in.
They watched it from the deck.
While they watched the storm, I attempted to feed Piper. She was more interested in Lola.
Those arms and legs of hers are constantly in motion!
I told you it was a busy and totally fun weekend!!!!! Thankful for beautiful weather, family, good friends and healthy kids!
