A Day at the Pool

By -
For those who don't know, my in-laws & 2 nephews have been visiting us this week. This is one reason I haven't had a chance to blog. Yesterday was a good day. Grandma took all the grandkids (minus Allison) to see Space Chimps. They LOVED it. This is a regular ritual for grandma, and Adam has really missed it. Later, we went to State Farm Pool to swim. Now, you have to understand that we went to the pool on Thursday & FROZE! It was a nice day (maybe 75 degrees) and a little breezy. The water was warm, but you were freezing when you got out. Yesterday, it was great. We swam for a while, then ate dinner. Then, the kids swam some more. The boys all psyched themselves up to going off the diving board & trying the big, red slide. Well, they LOVED it! I sat watching them for 45 minutes or so. They just slid then went right up to do it again. Adam jumped off the diving board & then got out and back to jump again. Crazy.
This is a little video clip of the boys and the big slide they loved so much. "We love you mom."
This is Griffin talking excitedly to his big brother, Ryan. Isn't he cute?
Here comes Ryan!

Griffin is Crazy! Adam would yell all the way down - You could totally hear him coming!

Cannonball! You go Ryan!

Griffin is ready...

Cool cousins...Ryan, Adam & Griffin.


Just a few diving board shots...

These are my in-laws... Pat & Dave. This is a pretty good pic, isn't it Katy?I know he'll probably kill me, but I really like this photo of Bry. He's my sweetheart. I love you dear.
What better pic to end with, than this sweetie? Allison loves to be in the water.

Chuck E. Cheese...Yay!??!

I decided to suck-it-up and take the family to Chuck E. Cheese for Allison's birthday. In AZ, the kids really liked going to Peter Piper Pizza for pizza & games. We've been here 2 years, and I've managed NOT to make it into Chuck E. Cheese. The kids have asked many times, but it just hasn't happened. So, I thought it would be a treat for them. A friend of mine gave me some coupons & I printed some off the Internet too. We got tons of tokens, pizza & soda for everyone. We had a pretty good time, except for 3 emotional meltdowns - ALL thanks to Mia. One meltdown because she wanted to play a specific game, another when we were down to our last 2 tokens (one for Adelaide & one for Mia). Her final tantrum was on the way out when she changed her mind at the last minute about which prize she wanted (after our turn was over). We'll have to think seriously about another birthday @ Chuck E. Cheese. - Mia says she wants to have her birthday there next month. W...

SEW Happy...Some of My "Projects"

It's October, and I DO like Halloween. I think it's fun to dress up & pretend. Sometimes it's a little grotesque & scary or pretty or even silly. This year, I felt like I should embrace my "roundness". I kept thinking of ways I could emphasize my prego belly, and this is what I came up with (for about$7 too). I bought a black T-shirt (used a coupon) at Michaels. I got 1/2 yd of orange fabric for my pumpkin (which could have made 2), then 1/4yd of black, green & orange w/ polka-dots. I knew I already had some Under Wonder (Heat & Bond) stuff at home that I could use. I had an idea of how I wanted it to look, so I actually put the T-shirt on wrong-side-out & marked where I wanted the pumpkin, so I could decide how big to make it. I sewed with black thread to make lines on the pumpkin, just to embellish it a little more. I cut eyes, nose & mouth out of black & ironed it on with under wonder. Then, sewed around the outside edges. I attache...

Video Friday

By -
OK, today is video Friday. I was looking through some video clips with the kids this morning & decided to share a couple of cute ones. This is one of my faves. - This is just typical for Adam when Amelia was born. He loved his little sis SO much. What happened? It's just funny to hear Amelia "whine" as her brother loves on her.
