Fun, fun, fun


Today was beautiful outside. We found ourselves at Target and bought every outdoor toy they had (ok not every one, but we might have gotten a little carried away)


Softball and glove, T-ball set, soccer ball, tennis balls for Archie to chase (mini ones. He has a tiny mouth!) Anyway it was just fun to spend time outside together. We've been lusting over having our own backyard for a few years, so we vowed to not take it for granted and to use and enjoy it to the fullest! - Now if only we could get that deck built we've been daydreaming of!


This week our mother's group went to the Botanic Gardens. Twice a month they do a preschooler activity and it was a lot of fun!


They decorated pots and planted flower seeds in them. (you have no idea how long it took me to get her to hold still, and look into the camera long enough to take this picture. Ok maybe you do - you have kids too)

They made little "bees" out of toilet paper rolls. Here is Caroline dancing around going "bzzz...bzzz...bzzz" I love how this captures some of her personality!
Caroline and her friend, Lucy. This picture makes Caroline look crazy-tall! Caroline is older than Lucy, but only by 8 months! (I guess when you're 2 and 3 years old, 8 months is a lot though!)

...and a random picture of my kids playing Guitar Hero. Aren't they cute? And before you go thinking Caroline is a gifted musician child, I should tell you she doesn't have a clue how to play. She just has fun pressing buttons and pretending. She does, however, know how to point her index and pinkie fingers in the air and yell, "Rock On!" Oh, the things we learn from Daddy!

I love that picture of her with her bee. She has so much personality. That picture of her with Lucy is cute, Lucy is alot shorter then her!

looks like lots of fun. Caroline is getting such a personality on her...she is sure growing and enjoying doing bigger things...I absolutely love the guitar picture! That's funny.

I miss our yard!!! I'm so glad you guys have a yard that you can play outdoor things with Caroline. She'll love it so much! Glad you guys got a new TV too!! We have our camera working now, time to let us see Caroline again!!!
