Whoaaa!

I am way behind in updating this blog. WAY behind! Happy 2nd birthday today to Caroline...hopefully I will get organized and get some more fun stuff up of the girls soon!

Katie Funny...

Katie has gotten in big trouble lately for sticking her fingers in her ears when she doesn't want to listen to what I am saying. Yesterday I was talking to her about something exciting like chores I expected her to accomplish that day and she just looked at me and said, "I turned my ears off." I think I need a copy of the Serenity Prayer in every room...

CHEEEEEESE!

We are heading to a baby shower this afternoon...

Katie: What's a baby shower?

Me: It's kind of like a party for a baby.

Pause.

Katie: Is there gonna be cake?

Me: Yes.

Katie: Let's go!

Surf's Up!...or not...

Katie and Caroline had some friends over to swim today because the weatherman said it was going to be HOT HOT HOT. The weatherman was WRONG WRONG WRONG! The kids got a whopping 20 minutes in the pool before the thunderstorms hit and the party moved indoors. 6 Mamas and 10 wet kiddos under the age of 7 in our basement eating lunch and killing time waiting for the storms to pass. It's amazing what kids will come up with to entertain themselves. Needless to say, it was very loud. Thank God for the mama who brought the margaritas.

Showtime!

Katie’s dance recital was this weekend. She was mostly excited about getting to wear makeup for the first time. She and her BFF Ally did a great job in “Sea Cruise” to which she shook her tail feathers and “surfed” to the Beach Boys’ “Catch A Wave.” Her older cousins took hip hop this year and were also in the recital. Caroline did a little dancing in the aisle before she had to be removed from the auditorium after exhausting her snacks and figuring out that she could not join the dancers on stage.

Happy Memorial Day!

Aquatic Accessories
