We had another super-great week of swimming lessons. How I love to see my baby girls having such a
fun time! And in other super news…
1)
Out of the blue, Baby A exclaimed, “Mommy, your
tummy must have been really big when I was in there!”
2)
Daddy was teasing the girls that we would send them
into the store to pick up something. He
said we’d give them money, and B interrupted, “But money is dirty! We’ll need to wash our hands!”
3)
We met Miss Demara with M&C at the bounce
house last week, while five-week old A stayed home with her Daddy. My Baby A was so worried how he would feed the
baby while Demara was with us. “But how
will A eat?” I told her Mr. G would give
her a bottle. “Well what will be in
it? Milk from the gallon?” And then another discussion ensued about how
the milk wouldn’t come from the store. I
had to laugh…and beam…at her detailed questions.
4)
B worried over her art supplies one
morning, "This marker doesn't look washable,
Mommy." I love that kid!
5)
And I nearly fell
out of my chair during art time another day, when Baby B asked me, "Mommy,
what does 'pissed' mean?" Like what, Sweetie? Can you use it in a sentence? I replied,
trying to remain very calm. "Like
the 'sharp-pissed' crayon. You asked who had the 'sharpest' crayon." Whew!
6)
The girls have
been all about their baby dolls and building blocks this week. I love seeing them playing – in new ways –
with the toys that have been such a part of our lives for over three years now!
7)
On Friday night,
we decided to go out for dinner, a rare treat.
We sat outside at the Mellow Mushroom, and the girls had such fun. Afterwards, Baby A asked for ice cream. We’ve NEVER gone for ice cream so late…but we
indulged ourselves with yet another treat.
The girls were in heaven!
8)
We had such a fun
time at a birthday party on Saturday afternoon.
I love seeing my girlies, playing with their friends.

My Facebook status on Monday morning: It's
not quite 8:30. So far today, we have...unloaded the dishwasher (a group
effort)...eaten breakfast...researched Finland, the Great Barrier Reef, and
tornadoes (in that order)...set up a store...and had a pretend birthday party.
We know how to kick off a Monday at our house!
10)
On Tuesday we went to Mammoth Cave National
Park to do a little hiking. Words cannot
express how I love to be out in the woods, just the four of us. It’s the best family time ever!
We saw a mommy deer and her baby...here, she'd just groomed his face. |
At Sunset Point. The drop-off over the wall was only about 4', I promise! |
Sisterly hug...I love it!!! |
A tiny bit of "fall" color in the woods. (This pic is for Marcia!) |
And there you have it...our weekly super highlights!

Oh stop with the fall business, I'm not finished with summer yet! Although its been rather cool these last few days...
Glad to see you went crazy and had some fun. A late ice cream is a sure sign of summer. Hope you guys have fun this weekend. :)
P.S.
I was hoping you had the first kid with a bad word!! Glad you were able to slide past that!
Your girls are just too smart
