The summer has officially started!!!

Well, we finally got off our lazy butts and put the pool up yesterday! Let me tell you that it was not easy. If I had taken pictures, it would have been a site to see. We were trying everything in the book to get the ground level again, due to the thousand moles we have tunneling in our neighborhood. It was crazy. After three or four trips to the hardware store, we ended up using a slat from a bed we had, two scalloped garden bricks, and a neighbor's rope. It was a hot and sweaty job, but we did it! After that sweat bath, we had to put up the pool itself and let me tell you, I was a princess, just ask Dustin. We had to stop every ten minutes or so for me to rest or get a drink. I was a total wimp where as Dustin never complained. It was worth the effort though!

So after the kids got home, we stripped them down and hopped in. They both had fun although I will really feel a lot better when we get the kids swimming lessons in July.

Splash Park FUN!!!

Last night, my friend at work told me about a splash park in Tyler at Faulkner Park. I had heard about the park before, but didn't know they had this splash park. So, right before work I got a call from working offering me stand by and of course, I took it. So I thought we'd go check out this splash park since we lucked out and had time. It was so awesome! There's was even a little playground area too. Noah had so much fun. Livi was a little skiddish, but she had fun too. I know where we're going to be hanging out this summer!

Splash Fun

So, last night we went to toys r us to get a splash fun toy for the kids since they both love water now. Livi for the first year hated water, but now she loves it thank goodness. Before the kids woke up, I put together this splash table and as soon as it got warm enough for a little splash time, we took them outside to play. They both LOVED it. It was so much fun watching them both play. Gosh I love my babies more everyday. They are just growing up so fast and both have such great personalities!! Noah is the perfect example of an older child. He's always trying to entertain us so that we keep the attention on him (don't think I haven't noticed, bub bub). And Livi is the child who does no wrong and never gets a spanking. I feel bad sometimes, but that's how it is. It's crazy. I never believed that birth order had any signifigance, but apparently it does. What happens when Livi becomes the middle child??? Hmmm.
