Summer Staples: splash pads |
We brought swimsuits, but I opted to let you guys "just be kids." |
You really like this place. |
So much rain this summer! |
Sydney and Daddy went to a One Direction concert. |
You, Kylee and I hung out in the hotel. |
With the coolest whirlpool bathtub. |
Daydreaming about her close encounter with 1D, no doubt. |
Playing on the hotel bed. |
Beach visits every time the sun makes an appearance. |
Looking for sea life at the rocks. |
Daddy is the most fun. |
Our beach baby. |
Digging for coquinas. Always. |
Syd went to the driving range with daddy on Father's Day. Cutest golfer ever!! |
We finally have a hammock again. |
Catching a driveway sunset when we can't make it to the beach in time. |
Little sentences have made their way into you vocabulary. Your newest phrases are among my favorites. Possibly because they're new, but probably because they speak so much to who you are right now. Every other sentence out of your mouth is "I do'd it!" You are so independent and refuse to let anyone help you until you've exhausted all of your patience. You are also quite fond of "My turn", which sounds just like "action" for some reason. You're also starting to randomly put words together. Just yesterday you saw Dora the Explorer on the tv guide menu and you said, "I like it, the Dora." No lie! We just got back from Disney for the 4th and you were so excited to see Mickey...until you did. You just buried your head into daddy's shoulder and said, "Shy." You are really able to communicate these days.
You've finally mastered bubble-blowing! |
It takes a lot of effort, apparently. |
So we turned your newfound skill into art. |
A date with my three youngest to my favorite coffee shop. |
We packed in a park visit. |
Some time by the water. |
And pottery painting into the date. It was a good day. |
Watermelon on a stick. It must be summer. |
We take splash parks really seriously! |
We might've played a little trick on your sister with the water fountain. |
