Summer Fun!

Here is a glimpse at some of the fun we are having so far!
Painting
 Finished Product
 Reading
 Rolling trucks down the driveway
 Library
 Swimming Cutie
 Pink Toes!
 Nothing special, just some jammies and crazy hair
 My little artist
More swimming
 Ready for church
 She loves to play with the "Baseball Mans" (Rangers figurines and bobble-heads)
"Mommy, let's play hangers." She was very proud of her masterpiece.
 Waiting to pet the tiger at the library
 This girl loves her books

We've been busy this month. Some days we just stay home and do nothing, and other days are filled with shopping, stores, pool, and playground. Here are some things I want to remember this month:
  • She uses the big brown pillow in the living room as a "trampoline." 
  • We bought her a little potty. She has sat on it several times, but has never gone "pee-pee" in it yet. 
  • She has had a few time-outs, mainly for not listening and/or obeying. 
  • We had our first official tantrum out in public. It was at the library of all places. She didn't want to leave, so she threw a book, yelled no, and went limp when I tried to pick her up. She continued to cry all the way home. Ugh!
  • She now has my doctor kit from when I was a child, and loves to do check ups on us.
  • She says, "I'm just being-tend" for "pretending."
  • She loves to sing the "O-O-O-O'Reilly....auto parts" commercial. Random!
  • She says "last day" for anything in the past. ex: Last day I went to church. 'Member last day I went to Mrs. Karen's house. Last day I went swimming. 
  • Besides "playing hangers," she also has started riding the hangers like horses.
  • One day when I had a headache, she said, "Mommy we can color together to make your head all better." Awwwwwww. 
  • Her newest favorite book is Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day. She loves saying that line over and over again with us on every page.
  • A funny thing: One night we went to dinner at Cici's (which Kacie LOVES). When we pulled in the parking lot, she squealed excitedly and yelled, "There it is! There's Pizza CCC!"
  • Also, out of the blue when we were driving to church one night, we passed Bass Pro Shop. She got really excited and said, "That's where we see Santa!" I couldn't believe she remembered that after 6 months. We pass Bass Pro every time we go to church, and she has never said anything.

Indoor Safari

We went to a place called Indoor Safari with our friends Autumn and Lux, and this time there was also Baby Gavin! The girls had a blast! Unfortunately, our friends were running late, so Kacie played and explored by herself for a little while.
 Lux is here!! Hugs!!
Cutest little 2 year olds I know!
 Riding the elephant
 And a ride on the little train
 Time for lunch at...where else? Chick-Fil-A
 Ice cream, yum!
 Sweet Baby Gavin-just 2 weeks old
 Playground fun
It was a fun day! It is so fun to watch Kacie and Lux together. Most of Kacie's other friends are older or younger. Lux is the friend closest in age. Can't wait to see them again!
