Cruisin' and Climbin'

On Sunday morning, we awoke and had a leisurely morning. Jason went out for bagels, the girls played upstairs and Matt and Ashley packed up their stuff for the next leg of their journey. The kiddos really wanted to ride bikes/scooters together before they left. And as you know, we have the perfect tiny neighborhood for this. 

Charlotte and Reagan are pros, both riding sans training wheels. Each took a spill or two, but shook it off and kept going. The little girls took turns riding the balance bikes and scooters and swapping. 






Savannah was mad. No idea why.

But then she was happy(ish) again.

And then upset because she couldn't get her helmet off.


But then happy to cruise on her new scooter. Seriously, keeping up with this girl's mood swings is a full-time job!


Jason had Caroline laughing hysterically for about 10 minutes. It was adorable.

After riding for a while, we wandered over to the small climbing rock up the street. Jason and Ashley showed the girls how to navigate the "boulder" and then there was no stopping them!







It was such a fun visit! Having kiddos the same age is awesome!

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!"
