dining al fresco

I put together my new patio table today and the kiddos thought that they should break it in.
IMG_6170 IMG_6171It was kinda windy with a storm rolling in and Jon thought that flying the kite would be fun.IMG_6178

The block wall was causing some wind pockets to form and the kite just wouldn’t fly.IMG_6188 IMG_6190Kaylee had the great idea to add wind using her room fan. You know to help the kite fly.  She was cracking us up.IMG_6193 IMG_6194It was a valiant effort, but a no go. Also we are working on putting in a new sprinkler system WOOT. 🙂

Meeting Logan Noah

The day after this little man was born two of my kiddos had a mystery fever. BOO! So we didn’t actually get to meet Logan until he was about a week old. There was a mix up about which location to be at for his appointment with his specialist (clubbed feet) and so they ended up clear over by our house (we live just over an hour away from each other) with time to kill while waiting on their new appointment time. So we got a surprise visit! YEA!

My little Monkey girl was NOT happy to see me holding a different baby. She made her baby self very clear that it was only okay for me to hold her. HAHAHA! A wee bit jealous. She kinda sort of got over it.IMG_6164

I had told the kids that I didn’t want them to touch Logan just in case we still had sicky germs. Jon had told them the same thing. Kaylee and Regan were just beyond excited to get to see him. Regan was all bouncy and Kaylee was just beaming.IMG_6165

Jason told the kids to kiss their cousin goodbye when it was to for them to go. Regan was so conflicted. He got to different sets of instructions from different adults. Explaining that Uncle Jason trumps Mama and Daddy on this subject took a bit. 😉 IMG_6166It finally came down to Mommies and Daddies are in charge of rules for THEIR babies. Jason and Jack’ee are in charge of rules for Logan. If Uncle Jason says you can kiss baby goodbye then it’s fine.

You have never seen a happier boy meeting his tiny new baby cousin. The kids are so looking forward to another visit. 🙂
