A Week of Fun!!!

Yep, this past week was FUN!!! Mostly because my parents came to visit...which means lots of things going on and lots of fun and lots of attention for the kids. My mom came early to HELP! And she did...a lot...and I NEEDED IT! I got a lot done, guilt free, knowing my kids were still getting lots of love and attention while I focused on things I just had to get done. Like cleaning, pictures, stuff. It was really nice. The kids were thrilled and demanded Nana and Papa's attention as much as they possibly could. Here are some pics from this week. Some of them are mixed up but they will document some of what this week was about...

Snack time...and cuddle time....

Duck, Duck, Goose. It's their favorite game. Michael gets EVERYONE involved...including the dogs and ugly doll:)

Snap shot of their new mini-playground....

She looks cute...don't let her sweet smile fool you.

We took a field trip to Glenview Mansion while Skyler was at school. I just love this place.

Papa and Sadie were running to avoid the sprinklers.

My Dad's pictures...so sweet.

Here is where the pictures get scattered. This is from today(Sunday). It hit 90 degrees and Sadie had a blast in the sprinkler. Skyler isn't a fan of the heat and headed inside fairly quickly. But, this one refused to go in until I dragged her!

So, while we are skipping around a bit...let's talk about today. I always mention how close my kids are becoming. But there are always these moments that define their relationship. Today it was when Skyler had hurt himself and was crying, also from the letdown of his party and my parents leaving. Sadie went over to him, said 'Don't cry Skyler', took his cheeks between her hands and gave him a huge smooch. Skyler couldn't stop laughing. Other times it's reversed and Skyler searches for the one toy that he never lets her play with that he knows will make her smile. They do this for each other all the time.
