This last week

Well, it has been about a week since I have last blogged. It has been crazy busy lately and I have taken pictures but not had the time to post them. Last weekend Laura and Josh came to visit. It was so much fun, but kind of sad because this is the last time they will visit before we move. I have grown attached to their monthly visits. They came up on Saturday and left on Sunday. Dave took a four day weekend so he also had off on Monday and Tuesday. Monday was spent steam cleaning. Dave steam cleaned the whole house and the car. How great is my husband!!! Tuesday we just hung out around the house. We had Rob, Maria, and Madison over for a grill out on Wednesday night. Now it is Friday and almost the weekend again. Next week is Dave's last week of actual work. The week after that is when he out-processes from the army deployment to Texas and then we leave for Wisconsin!! I can't believe how fast that is coming up! Without further ado, here are the pictures:


Dave and Josh were playing copy cat with Alaina. She was laughing so hard!!!

Josh helping Alaina fly with her fairy wings.

Josh, Laura, and Leo hanging out on the couch.

Josh is going to be such a good Daddy! Look at how well he does with Alaina!

I was reading Alaina her princess book.

Alaina loves to pick flowers now. Here she is in our front yard:

Giving some flowers to me.

Picking more.

Running to the house to give them to Daddy.

Leo's first try at eating cereal. He did really well.

Here was Dave making Alaina do his chores. Just kidding...Alaina wanted to help Dave take out the garbage. She took the bag away from him and drug it to the garbage can herself.

Leo passed out in his swing with all of his toys. He is getting a lot better at being able to grasp, cuddle with, and suck/chew on his toys.

On Wednesday night when we had Rob, Maria, and Madison over, Alaina wanted to hold both of the babies. Madison was born about a week before Leo was. I can't believe how much smaller than him she is!

This morning Alaina took over Leo's bouncy chair.

After she got up, I put Leo in the chair and he started watching cartoons. He stared at the TV for at least 20 minutes.

I am going to attempt to take both kids to the park by myself this morning so I should get going to get them ready. We have to go early because it is starting to get really hot during the day. Yesterday was upper 80s and very humid. Hope you all enjoy your Friday!!!
