Fluffy butt!!

Soccer then the zoo

After Dylan had soccer this morning we went to the zoo with Jodi, Sammy and Sawyer!  It was crazy busy today but the kids still had a good time!  They had Animal Art on display that the kids thought was really cool!

Tuesday was a fun day!!

Tuesday was a day that Kira and Dylan were so excited about!  Their buddies Sammy and Sawyer were coming to play for the day....I think all the kids were excited to get to hang out.  Sammy and Kira have hardly seen each other since they started school which was a change from spending a lot of time together before that.  It was fun to see how they really were still good friends!

We all went to Dylan's soccer in the morning.....Kira, Sammy and Sawyer played on the playground while Dylan was doing his class...he wasn't too sure at first about that but was fine once I assured him he could play later!

Sawyer taking a break for a snack!

Eva was thrilled to play a game of peek-a-boo with Sawyer

Pretty girls....

After we had fun making our own pizzas for lunch, the "little" kids took naps while Sam and Kira watched a movie.

Then it was time to go outside...the weather was BEAUTIFUL!!!!

It was only in the 70's but the kids insisted on swimming...go for it!

And ya know, all that swimming makes you hungry....

Then they decided that maybe it wasn't warm enough to swim all afternoon, we got the playdough out.

Eva was very happy right here...

Over 1 1/2 hrs later....the girls were still playing with the playdough.

Eva LOVED Sawyer!

We can't wait for Sammy and Sawyer to come back in a few weeks!

Soccer!

Today was Dylan's 1st day of soccer camp...he goes just this week.  I wasn't sure how it would go.  I could see him getting frustrated and just being in a bad mood or I could see him loving it.....it's safe to say that he was loving it!  And he was EXHAUSTED when it was over and is napping right now so that makes me a happy mama! ;-)

Checking things out while waiting for his coach

Kira pouting because I wouldn't let her go to the playground by herself and nothing I brought with for her to do was what she wanted......

He was literally smiling all the time..

Telling his coach that he was ready to play soccer!

Gotta stretch before we play soccer

I looked down and Eva was doing whatever the kids were doing on the field... too cute!

Jumping jacks.....

Lined up and ready to go!

It takes a lot of concentration to get from one end of the field to the other AND kick the ball!

GOAL!

Eva's new favorite place to be......

NOW...if only she could figure out to get down...and not smack her head on the hardwood!!  UGG! :-)

She still loves to jump...and this tiger is her best friend!!

My little angelfish!

Dylan has been doing swimming lessons for the last 7 weeks and he absolutely LOVES it!  He's doing great and I can't believe how much confidence he has gained in just a few weeks.  He's going to be repeating the "angelfish" for another session since he still hasn't mastered keeping his mouth shut under water (although I feel like he has that problem OUT of water too!) :-)  Here's a couple of short videos from today.....

He no longer has a fear of jumping in....

Monkey walk!

Mommy's little helper

Eva was happy to help Mommy fold her diapers tonight.....

Today Kira had her dentist appointment so I though I would share some pictures of that "big" event....

Oh wait, she was beyond hysterical so there are no pictures! YIKES!  We'll try again in a couple of weeks.  I was VERY impressed with the staff, nurses and dentist.  They were very supportive and encouraging to both Kira and Mommy! 

We also had to go have bloodwork today that her pulminologist ordered after her sleep study.  Nothing major, or so they say.  Everything was normal for the most part but her legs moved pretty much non-stop all night so they wanted to check for a few things to see if there were some answers there as to why Kira has been even more tired than normal lately.  Needless to say, it wasn't a fun-filled day for Miss Kira!!

A night out with Daddy

Monday night I had the board of directors from preschool over for our end-of-the-year party so Jason took Kira and Dylan out of the house for awhile.  They started out at the library and then since the weather LOOKED like it was going to cooperate, they went to a Mallard baseball game.  Kira had talked about it all day so it was good that they got to go but after not even one whole inning, the storms rolled in and the game was called.  Jason did get some great pictures for me though......it still amazes me how far Kira has come!!

I remember a day when this would have never happened!  I guess Dylan was all about Maynard!

I can hear them giggling when I look at these pictures!

Hi-5 for Millie

Bonehead!

Time to eat!

YUM!

Actually taking a minute to watch the field!

Kira loved this last summer too!

Of course, Kira remembered the icecream sandwiches!

Since the game got rained out, we can redeem the tickets for another game so hopefully we'll find an afternoon game to check out later this summer!
