Rock Barn Pool

This weekend while the cousins were here we went to Rock Barn to swim. It was fun to see The boys swim and even jump off the diving board.

The shared a noodle and even taught Poppy how to blow water out of it, like a squirt gun!

Harper chilled in the shade and enjoyed rolling around on the towels; the water was a little cold for her to take a dip that day.

Cousins!!!!

Not usually a Swift fan...

I heard this song watching a vlog I follow and it brings tears to my eyes as I think about how fast Harper is growing and how BIG Chatham already is!!!!!

Busy, Busy

So I already wrote about our trip to the air port Saturday, well that's not all we did- it was a VERY busy day!

We did lots of crafts- I traced Chatham's outline and let him color it, he drew eyes and a heart. Then he asked me to do the hair and "a smiley mouth". The rest was added by Chatham and he mentioned a belly button, food, grass, and a soccer ball. We made a turtle and a crab out of construction paper that we ripped into squares.

 Friday night after we got home from swimming Paul came by we a treat for Chatham!! A SANDBOX!!! Paul helped Devin build the swing set back in March and knew we were in the market. Thanks Paul!!!!

 After the trip to the airport we went to Geitner park and walked down by the lake. Chatham found a little wooden bunny marking the start of hiking trail.

 Devin and Chatham spotted a boat and watched it drive off into the sunset. Then it was time to go home and get some rest.

 But first Harper needed to eat, and for the first time Chatham offered to feed her. It didn't last long- but she ate about a sixth of the bottle on his lap. HAHA

Another water baby

We have awesome neighbors that have us over to swim often. We've been swimming about twice a week since the beginning of May. Harper loves the water (since they keep it heated to 88 degrees) and floats around for about thirty minutes before getting out to snuggle and nap.

Chatham has been having a ball too. The last two times we've been over I've taken off his swimmies and let him swim with me. He is getting SO good. He'll go under to grab rings, do a cannon ball off the side (a real one, he even grabs his knees), and will float on his back (while I have one hand loosely on his back.  I am so proud of this boy!!
