Summer Fun

The kids have been having a great time this summer trying new things. They are no longer content to sit in their Pack-n-Play. Jackson has learned how to to jump out of the Pack-n-Play on his own. Those two are into EVERYTHING. I have put locks on most of the cabinets, installed an oven lock, a dishwasher lock and we have a baby gate at the top of the stairs. This is just a minor road block until they can figure out how to get around these little deterrents. What am I going to do?


Riding on trucks


Bouncing on the trampoline


Tipping over dog water (and actually cleaning it up)

Good Earth Farm

After checking out Natalie's Girls Just Wanna Have Fun blog I decided that today would be a great day to take the kids to The Good Earth Farm in Leander. Good thing that we went on an overcast day because there are NO shade trees. The kids weren't too sure what to think about the animals because they are so much bigger than the kids are. The farm also had a table set up with bubble liquid and wands. The kids were more interested in chewing on the bubble wands than blowing bubbles. I think that we might wait until the weather gets cooler before we make a return trip to the farm.

Happy 4th of July!

Jump on the Kindertot's Train

The kids had their second Kindertots Dance Class today. Jackson did a better job this week of playing along and loved jumping, going around in a circle and being a part of the noodle train. Audrey did not want any part of it. All she wanted to do was run around the room and whine. There is always next week.

Latest Craft Project

Chris' Granny gave us a small table and two chairs for the kids. The color was not doing so great. It was a faded blue and the polyurethane finish had turned yellow. I decided to paint the furniture but I could not decide what color to paint it. It was torn between blue, yellow or red. Chris said anything but RED....

I love the red and I am sure that it will grow on Chris.

Kindertots

I enrolled the kids in Kindertots with a bunch of kids from church. Kindertots is a "dance" class for little kids. Yesterday was their first day of class. It was more like herding kittens than an actual dance class. Kids were running in all directions and only one kid was actually following directions. It was absolutely hilarious and well worth the price of admission.


Audrey wanted the ball really badly


Audrey figured out that if you suck up to the teacher you get the ball


The Log Roll did not go so well
