Wow! I can't believe it is already June. Where has the time gone? I can already tell it is going to be a very hot summer, so I am trying to come up with some fun activities for the kids to do where we do not all get heat exhaustion. Plus, not sure if you have noticed but I have a very fair bleach blonde little girl, that just the sight of the sun gets her some rosey cheeks. I guess if they are ever casting for a baby for the Twilight series, Maggie might at the top of the list for the role!
We loved having Daddy home for three fun filled days filled with the spray park, pool time at my parents, and lots of popsicles. There were three sad little kiddos today when Daddy had to go back to work. I guess being at home with them all day, there is not too much excitement when I walk through a door, but with Daddy, well that's a different story. Chase walked in the back door this afternoon and the looks on the three kids face was pure happiness. I think he could probably have the worst day, but it all goes away when he walks in the door because of all the smiles, clapping, and hugs he receives when he gets home. I love watching it!
Our backyard has seen some sad days with this horrible heat, which means that the sprinklers need to run as much as legally possible. Now we are law abiding citizens, usually :), but when the idea of turning the sprinklers on a little early today came up, we jumped at the idea for some sprinkler fun! The girls aren't ready to run, even though sometimes they think they are, so they stayed in the kitchen to help me cook dinner while their big brother ran non stop for 12 minutes through the sprinklers. He was exhausted by the end, but had the BEST time! So, if you ever drive by our house during the day and our sprinklers are on, please don't call the city- it's for the sake of our children!
Marley and Maggie enjoying some fruit. They can not get enough watermelon! I finally learned to take their shirts off when they eat it because we have ruined many a white shirt already!
Miles running...
Taking a little breather...
