Guys day out...

The guys - Nick, my dad and friend Ryan all had a good guys day today. They went fishing up at Crystal Lake. They all caught fish but it sounds like my dad and Ryan were the winners today.

Who's counting though? (Nick ;-) Such a competitor) Nick said he had a lot of fun!

Friday Fun...?

Well, well, well... What a Friday we did have! We started the day by having a playdate at Chick-Fil-A with Marci and Morgan. The girls had a lot of fun. We then headed over to Target b/c I had to grocery shop. Luckily Marci came with me b/c half way through Jillian was no longer having it so I had to carry her while trying to push the shopping cart and while trying to get groceries. I gave Marci the produce list and we made it through. Well I ran the groceries home and then went back to my parents to hang for a bit and get Kaylee. Well we are sitting there and Jillian has a BLOWOUT. I am holding her in the air while my mom is trying to delicately take her clothes off without getting poo all over her. We get the clothes off and I rush her into the bathroom to get her cleaned off and give her a bath. Morgan then comes in and from the smell throws up all in her hand. I am sitting there watching Morgan clean vomit off of her hand and am trying to clean baby poo. My gag reflex starts by this point but I managed to hold it down. Well we all get squared away and not knowing that Morgan had gotten some of her goodness on the floor Kaylee then stepped in it. I guess they don't call it Friday the 13th for nothin'... We all had a good laugh by the end of it all.

Where does the time go?

Today Jillian is 7 wks old and I truly cannot believe it. It seems like I just had her yesterday. She is changing each and every day. She smiles now which is the absolute best thing ever. She is starting to watch and observe things around her. She loves to watch Kaylee play and jump around. Kaylee loves her so much and loves to dance around for her. I love my girls so much and love watching them blossom but I sure wish time would slow down some. Before I know it they are going to be all grown up and I will only be able to look back at these days. Right now I am living in these days so I want to make each day count. I love you girls!

We love our Wed. playgroup

Today we went to playgroup as we do every Wed. and had so much fun as we always do. As soon as we are done with playgroup we are already looking forward to next weeks playgroup. Today it was at our great friend Madisons' house and her mommy - Kim planned a fun Father's Day craft where all of the kiddos made home made cards. Afterwards they all played outside and ate popsicles and then played musical chairs.

It is playgroup for me as much as it is for KK b/c I get to hang out with other moms and have adult conversations. It is especially fun too b/c there are 4 of us who have little babies within just weeks of each other. The oldest being 8 wks and the youngest at only 3 wks. Thank you Kim for starting playgroup and for thinking of all of the different activities we get to do.

Fun with friends

Yesterday we went and checked out the new Lil' Biggs on Powers and KK and her good friends Gracie and Kenzie had so much fun! They played for hours. KK finally happily rode the carousel and talked about it all afternoon. Normally she will not get on a carousel because she is scared so hopefully the carousel counseling we put her in this last yr. helped. J/K ! She loved it though and even pretended that our computer chair was one last night and kept spinning around. They jumped in a bounce house and played dress up. Thank you to Gracie and Kenzie for being such fun friends for KK to play with...

O', the innocence of children

Today KK asked me if my belly was all better (meaning after having Jillian). I said yes, it's all better. She asked, "then how come your belly hasn't gone down all the way?" ;-)

Goin' Camping

So it is only in the backyard but still tons of fun. O' and did I mention I am staying inside. :-) Well Nick decided earlier this week that it would be fun to do a backyard camp out. KK has been so excited! They set up the tent, we grilled hot dogs and we even roasted marshmallows. (I lost a few taste buds in the process - hey, its been a long time since I have had a roasted marshmallow!) I just put Jillian in bed and am sitting here by the window waiting to see if they come in but I actually think they are sleeping. I hope they sleep tight tonight under the beautiful sky.
P.S.Camping in the backyard sure saves you a lot of gas money.. ;-)
