Daddy's Home!

and we're so happy!  We missed him!  

Nate finally got home last night.  He was gone all week fishing.

 Grey attacked him the minute he walked in and tootie put her arms out for him to pick her up...and I ran out the door - hahaha!  Just kidding...

Nate might have forgotten to rub in the sunscreen all the way...nice white eyebrows -ha!

So today we relaxed by the pool...

Well some of us relaxed while others were 'scooting' around

 and we tried out some new floaties today thanks to grammy Ann...the other ones kept flying off...

Grey was a little cold...

 

 

That's what our day looked like today...We're sure glad Nate's home!

Our first REAL taste of summer

We pulled out the squirt gun and our plastic pool over the weekend...
Sister is not sure of it all yet...after a few squirts in the face (on accident) from Grey and a couple splashes of cold water...I guess I wouldn't be to sure either...

Grey didn't care how cold the water was...

Check out this action...and it was going on right in our front yard:) - Sailor was amazed -ha!

he's trying his best to hide it, but i think he's cold...

See...I told you she was amazed...

.....que - face of amazement;)

Sailor kept her distance from the pool...she was fine with just watching...

By Sunday, Sailor was a lot better with the whole 'pool' thing...

So, the four of us just hung out all day....(and then I had two glorious hours to myself)...Grey, Sailor, and Nate all took a nap:)

I decided to add flags to my flowers for Memorial Day...

I'm always up for a little red/white/blue action

I'm sorry but look at those lashes...(no editing I promise)...she was enjoying an ice cube...

and this one is about to loose his drawers...

We're ready for Summer...Bring.It.On!

Summer Days

From the minute this little guys feet hit the ground in the morning

he's ready for action

and a little morning TV...particularly SPROUT

drawing a picture or more like erasing his chalkboard.

and he's good at giving me funny faces especially when he's telling me - "no more pictures mommy"

We jump started our morning with arts and crafts at the park.  They just started this week.  So we gathered up a whole 50 cents and we were good to go - can't beat it.  It just happened to be painting.

At first Grey didn't want to do it...of course he just had to get comfortable and the next thing I see was him grabbing for a "paint" shirt to put on...it always takes him a minute with something new

Livy came with us too

and our lil' buddy Brody was there too

Livy's was neat and precise

while Grey did a little more "exploring" with his...he mainly stuck with the blue paint

After arts and crafts we had a picnic outside and then we met Auntie Mims at the pool

Grey had a ball...

Running around with his new swim shoes on...I love those things...

Auntie Mims gave me a nice break today...I just sat on the side of the pool and soaked up some rays while she and Grey played in the pool...

Summer Days are the best!
