Welcome

 Signs that greeted us at a recent visit to Laina's house. One to welcome us to the 'party' and one announcing a 'store' in Laina's room where I purchased a bookmark and Barry a toothbrush:)

One Lonesome Luau Picture

Was going to post pictures of our Luau that we hosted at our house Saturday night but after the night was over I discovered this was the only picture I took early on in the afternoon as I was just beginning to prepare.

Tot Time with Leila and Malin

 Leila's first time at Tot Time. She loved it.

 Malin helped push her around in her car.

 It's so fun to have helpful cousins.

 Malin hopped on and started bouncing. No instruction needed.

 This is a pretty fast slide and Malin was getting the hang of walking around back to go up the stairs rather than trying to climb up the slide.

Malin thought this was awesome.

Out Cold

After a hard day of play.

Arts 'n' Crafts

 Laina painting rocks Sunday afternoon while Hudson naps. Notice her new watch. She can really tell time!

 She got this cute straw hat at Target.

 Drawing her mom with sidewalk chalk as Lola looks on.

The finished "Terri". She does have arms although they are pretty small and you can't see them very well. Grandpa thought her shoes looked like buns.

Li'l Swimmers

 While Leila swam in the little pool..ah.....tub

 Malin swam in the big pool. She wore her new hat and shades.

Leila had to get out of the tub because she had a big poop explosion!

Arts Fest

Hudson, a good ole Iowa Boy, eating meat on a stick. 

Laina, sporting her pink hair extensions, painting a butterfly in "Belize" at Arts Fest.

Cutting a Rug

I bought this rug at the farmers market on Saturday. It adds color to the tile in the bathroom and I love the fact that it is handwoven. It is washable and I thiink quite reasonably priced at $26.25. 

Hello, I can sit up now!
