Trip to Raleigh (serious photo bomb!)

The girls and I went down to Raleigh to visit Colleen, Keith & Max for a long weekend. We love hanging out with them! We arrived on a Friday afternoon and went to Chik-fil-A for dinner with Jill & Tom. That was great for Max and Reagan because of the indoor play place! 

That night, we let them have a "slumber party," so of course, neither one slept more than 5 hours:) But they had fun, so it was worth it. We got up and had breakfast while I snapped some pics:



After breakfast, there was some serious playtime going on. Even Keith got involved!


Managing all 3 without any trouble. We should have snuck out!



Later that morning, Betty, Lynsey, Mason & Caroline were coming to visit! Savannah was very excited to meet them! And we were excited to catch up with everyone!

Love how Reagan is messing with Max while he's messing with Savannah...pick on the younger ones;)

It took Caroline no more than a minute to warm up to everyone once she saw the baby. From all of Lynsey's pictures, she's obsessed with baby dolls, so having the real thing was perfect for her! Betty was right at home with a lap full of babies!



We ate some lunch and chatted while the kids played and Savannah napped on Betty. It was a wonderful visit. And of course, I had my camera handy!



This picture cracks me up. Caroline is SO PROUD of herself!

I'm fairly certain that Colleen bribed her with this cookie.

Reagan loves her Uncle Keith! 

Another baby-whisperer!

We did our best to get a picture of all the kids (minus Savannah) together. These are the best from my camera!








Keith was trying to scare the kids!

So of course, Reagan had to try it on too:)



Love you all! So happy we could spend some time together!!!

NC Girls' Weekend

Image
Since Jason is out of town, we decided to schedule an impromptu girls weekend visit in North Carolina. It was great to see Lynsey & Colleen and their families. Jessica, the girls and I drove down Friday night and got to Lynsey's just before midnight. We didn't do much, but hang around the house and play outside on the first day. It was relaxing and fun. Brian was awesome and played with the kids while Jess, Lynsey & I did a workout in their amazing home gym. Colleen came up with the boys around lunch time on Saturday. All the kids fawned over Miles, or as they have names him, Baby My My. I think Savannah really enjoyed not being the youngest for a few days. Saturday night, we ordered pizza, ate way too much, and Grammy Betty came over. We haven't seen her in a long time and it was wonderful to chat with her again.  The next day, we woke up to some snow! We played outside again and the kids played well together which was nice for us adults. Colleen and the boys ...

Bath Time Fun

Image
Typically, after Jason gets home and eats dinner, he is on bath duty. It gives me 10 minutes to clean the kitchen, set up his coffee and make his lunch for the following day. One day last week though, everything was already done, so I snuck in to watch the fun. We recently got some Mr. Bubbles for Reagan and she LOVED them. She's such a cheeseball!

Bath Time: PAHM Style

Image
I've mentioned it before, but I will say it again: I love Play At Home Mom !!! This site is the best for ideas to interact with, engage, and teach your children. Reagan takes a bath almost every night. She has the typical assortment of toys (rubber boats, cups, a turtle, etc) to entertain her, but lately, she just leaves them in the bag. I decided to introduce some new things during bath time and they were a huge hit! Here are some pictures from our "adventures in bath fun." First up: BUBBLES ! It's a bit too cold to just hang out in the yard blowing bubbles, so I decided that bath time would be the perfect opportunity for a mess free bubble party! I LOVE this shot.  Secondly, (and straight from PAHM), I added: WATER BALLOONS !!! She absolutely loved when I poked a small hole in them and they became "water fountains!"
