What A Weekend!

Friday, I had my month after pregnancy doctor's appointment, so Betty took Lani and Dax to her house. I took Harper with me and we met Jarod for lunch. Harper and I then went to Betty's and spent time in the pool - Lani and Dax also enjoyed there first ice cream from an ice cream truck. Dax keeps referring to it as Road Ice Cream - haha!


Dax loves the water!

This is Lani showing me that she can touch the bottom! I can't believe she is old/tall enough to touch the bottom of the pool :(

Of course, Harper enjoyed her nap by the pool. I did put her in the water today! She loves to take a bath and she loved the pool too. She just couldn't stay in very long, because Dax was a little too close to her for comfort - I didn't want him to push her head under water or anything!!



The Ice Cream Truck - They loved it!!


Dax decided he wanted to try Batman Ice Cream.





As you can tell, he really enjoyed it!!




Lani decided on Pink Panther - basically pink is her favorite color!
Saturday morning we took a drive up to Walhalla and visited Stumphouse Tunnel. The kids loved it, and were not afraid at all!







Walking into the tunnel!







Climbing the rocks - the was as high as Dax went!




This is actually in front of Isaquenna Falls - a nice old man took our pic!
Saturday night was also a Family Fun Night, with Pizza at Melissa's house. My contribution was a brownie banana split pizza for dessert - It was yummy!
About a month ago, we had tickets to a drive game with the Hix's. Well, that game got rained out, so our new tickets were for Sunday. Boy, was it hot!! Harper stayed with my mom - too hot of a day for her. I have to say that Lani and Dax did very well, considering how hot it was! We were on the first row, so Dax was able to get a few autographs on his baseball!



Lani, Reedy, Dax





Autograph time!!!



Poor Dax - He stood like this, well most of the game. He would say, "I want a ball, throw me a ball." He got a little upset when someone hit a home run, because he thought it was his ball! I think we have a little baseball player on our hands :)

Oh, How Time Flies!!

4 Weeks Old Already!!! I can't believe Harper has been here for a month already! Time goes by so quickly and it makes me sad :( Harper had a check-up at 3 weeks old and weighed 9 pounds and 10 ounces and had grown 1/2 an inch! Harper is a sweet baby and we all love her very much! Happy 4 weeks, Harper!!!

~Library~

Thursday was Library Day! Lani loved the library, Dax - well not so much! Before we left, I was explaining to them that in the library you have to be quiet. As we are walking to the car Dax runs to the back yard, gets his baseball bat and tells me - "Lani go library, I go ballgame."


Harper, once again sleeping on our adventure!

This entertained Dax for maybe 3 minutes!

Thanks Emily for your help!



Dax was more interested in the statues! He even tried to climb on them!!


Lani's little finger - She was reading a book where you find different things. She loves those books!




Lani reading her book!
Lani was able to get her very own library card, and she is so excited about it. Lani checked out two books and we finally convinced Dax to check one out as well!

~So Far.....

We have been having fun this week. Monday we made and decorated newspaper swords, went swimming, I went to see Chris Daughtry and we have chilled out at home too.



This is how our swords began....

Lani and Dax painting and covering their swords in stickers.


Time to fight.



The finished product




Tuesday, we went to the pool with the Hix's - This was what Harper did the entire time!






After the pool = Chasing bubbles





~We're the three best friends, that anyone could have~
Lani's favorite song lyrics - hahaha








I know this isn't a good pic - and that shadow head, well let's just say, she was somewhat annoying - she danced even when music wasn't playing - Every time I attend a concert, I manage to be seated near the craziest people!
Wednesday we stayed at home all day, well until we headed to church.
What's in store for today? Maybe a trip to the library. Lani has been begging to go to the library, so we may take our first trip there today!

~Wedding Weekend~

A friend of mine, Sara got married this weekend and we all had a great time celebrating with her! Sara and I go way back - Our mom's were friend's and were in this friend group thing and the first time I met Sara, I think, was at my 5th birthday party. We went to different elementary schools, but became friends in Middle School, when all the Elementary schools joined together. We also cheered together in high school and have tons of high school memories!
