Rainy Monday

Its a rainy Monday! We ran to the store to get a Hot Wheels mat to play with. Here we are driving our cars around and enjoying hanging out inside this morning:)


Family Visit

We were so excited that Uncle Chad, Auntie Jolene, Everett and baby Isaac came to visit us this weekend!! We did lots of fun things and cant wait for them to visit again! There were so many pictures so mommy had to choose only a few to share:) Here is Colin holding baby Isaac. Kaitlyn held him too. They also helped feed him!
We went to IKEA and Abt on Saturday. Who would have known that the Abt electronics store could have so much neat stuff in it?? Here are K, C & E in the store by the water fountain.

They even had a big bubble maker. Uncle Chad and Everett in a bubble.
This huge granite ball was floating in water and spinning around. It was neat to touch!
We saw lots of fish in the huge fish tank. Colin was checking out the real eel that used to be in the tank but now is just on display.
We swam in the pool Saturday afternoon. K & C were dumping all of their pool toys in the pool.

The 3 amigos ready to go down the slide.
Splish Splash!!!
Baby Isaac was so good all weekend. He is only 4 weeks old!!! He was hanging out with us outside in the bouncer.
Sunday we went to the park. We put all 3 kids in the jogging stroller and off we went.

Kaitlyn enjoying the slide.

Colin enjoying the slide too!

1st Dentist Visit & Swimming

Today we went to see a pediatric dentist for the first time. We did really well getting our teeth examined!!! Dr. Pollina is a friend of our Uncle Jims who is a dentist too. He had funny stories to tell us about Uncle Jim and when they were in dental school together:)
Here we are getting our teeth counted. Kaitlyn has 19 teeth! Colin has 20 teeth!
We came home and our cousin Quintin came over with Auntie KK to play and have dinner.
All full of sunscreen and ready to go!
First we went in the sprinkler in the front yard.
Then we moved to the pool in the back yard. We didn't fill the pool up very much as the water was so cold and Quintin was in the pool with us.
We tried out the pool slide too!
Big Splash!
Super fast!
Can you tell how cold the water is based on Colin face:)

Navy Pier

We had a lot of fun at Navy Pier in Chicago today! It was a hot one though!! It was Cams last day off of work for the summer and I think we have accomplished everything we had on our list of fun things to do this summer! The kids loved seeing the water and all of the boats!
Here they are standing by a large ship! Mommy, Kaitlyn and Colin on the pier
It was funny how other families would ask us to take their picture and then we turned around and asked them to take ours. We were able to have 2 family pictures taken.
K & C resting in their strollers and watching The Odyssey cruise boat go by.
What a beautiful skyline! Kaitlyn kept saying "we are in the City mommy!"
Enjoying some yummy lunch!
Look at those rosy cheeks from the heat!
Kaitlyn and Mommy didn't want to ride the huge ferris wheel so daddy said maybe next year we would all go:)
Another family picture! The kids went to bed at 6:3o tonight so we knew that we wore them out today! It was a great way to end Cams summer break!
