:( uh oh...

i think emerson has come to another hurdle.... i think she got some milk in her lungs, aspirated once again. i'm stopping all fluids by mouth until she is better. i hope this lung thing doesn't get worse than it already is this time....

tuesday...

we went to a nearby playground this morning with juanita and her kids. i had the kids all ready to go, dressed in shorts but we had to change into long pants and sweaters because it was pretty kool outside! i put both kids into some pants, only to realize they no longer fit. kai's were super short, hallies' wouldn't do up around her waist AND were short. soooooooooo had to pull out the next size already! yikes! kai is in a 4, hallie in a 5. i thought for sure their current stuff would fit until christmas. oh well....

kids driving the car at the park!

this afternoon, riding bikes and eating popsicles.


kai insists on riding hallie's old pink trike instead of his red one... LOL!




flowers for you, mommy!
emerson is getting closer to crawling! she gets into this position but doesn't know what to do after, so she sits back down! haha! my cutie pie :)

beans, beans!

emerson eating beans.... what a mess! haha! she is a great eater, likes almost everything!

splashpark!

monday we met some friends at the splash park! jane was there with her kids and some homeschooling friends, danielle, jen, juanita, michelle all were there with their kids. i hope i'm not forgetting anyone! it was a fun day! i locked my keys in the van but luckily kipp was able to come unlock my van on his lunch break while we were still playing at the splash park. oops!

monday morning....

i know a bunch of these are the same, but i just love the kids' expressions so i put them all on. my 3 happy kids!

sunday...

sunday.... i took the kids for a walk/bike ride to the park in the morning but it was sooooooo hot we didn't stay too long. then i worked that afternoon/evening.

saturday!

i worked saturday morning, and then we were off to a birthday party in the afternoon!

at the party, the bday girl received some masks and dress up clothes for a present that we were all trying out!

mmmmmmmm!
kai thought this mask was neat but also a bit scary...
kai, soaking wet!
princess hallie!
what a neat dora bday cake! a friend made it! the pic doesn't do it justice... the water river part was a clear gel, it was so neat!

friday!

friday we went to millenium place with juanita and R and their kiddos. the kids love the indoor playground there! after that, i took them to get their hair cut at beaner's (even though i hate the place, the kids love it and it's cheap so what can i say?!) and they actually got not bad haircuts. kai needed one, hallie never really "needs" one but she hadn't had a trim since last summer so it was time!

afterwards, off to grandma's for playtime & dinner!

jump!

hockey!
