The Children's Museum

Last week, we headed to Edwardsville to visit The Children's Museum with Tia and Jamison. After seeing how much fun Aunt Jaycie, Jack, and Livy had there, we decided we had to go!

The kids had a great time playing and exploring all the rooms throughout the museum! Everything there was just their size. They played pretend newscasters, firefighters, librarians, grocery store cashiers/shoppers, marching band member, knights, and bankers. Make believe is so much FUN and the loved every minute of it! Afterwards, we all headed out for lunch at McDonalds. Trust me, not the adults choice. We were willing to eat it because there was a play land there. You would think they would have been tired, but oh no. Not our kids. The more fun..the better!
Man, our kids have it made don't they?

Thanks Tia and Jamison for inviting us!
We had so much fun and can't wait till our next play date.

Lets go SWIMMING!

It has been so HOT here lately that the boys and I decided we needed a pool in our backyard. Here they are waiting for me to blow it up.

Noah waited patiently too!

Time for the water!
We hooked the hose up to the sink in the laundry room so that the water was not too cold.


Bella Bella!

My water baby.

Joshua was so excited to have his baby brother in the pool with him.

All 3 boys

He held that cup and spoon the entire time.

Because Joshua could not wait his turn for the Larry the Lobster float, he improvised and used Noah's baby float.

Aren't you so proud that I am actually growing flowers in my backyard?
