Wandering

Just some wandering around the farm land the other day.  It was a pretty pleasant day outside.  And as far as I know, nobody got any ticks.  Which is good. 

Headbandz

I played this game the other day with the girls.  Though I kind of made up my own rules.  I would describe what was on the picture and the Liv would guess.  And in the actual game the person wearing the headband asks questions to figure out what they've got.  But our way worked pretty good.  Except for Leesie wasn't so thrilled about playing.  She was actually being kind of a grump.

And Liv's face when she discovered I was trying to get her to guess that she had a spider on her head was pretty great. 

And Leesie rolled around on the floor and threw a fit.  Pretty typical. 

And then later the girls were playing a really cute game where Liv would tuck Leesie into bed and give her goodnight kisses.  So sweet.  

This week Liv will have her first week of four days of preschool.  It's only three hours. . . but we'll see how she does.  I suspect she will be a tired mess by the end of the week.  Although today I made her take a nap, and she took about a two and a half hour nap.  But she's still up in bed, not falling asleep.  So it's kind of back firing.  And Annalise has no pacifiers in this house.  They're all torn or lost.  So tonight we're pretty much screwed. 

So much fun

So much fun jumping on the trampoline!  Leesie wants to be just like Liv, so when she sees Liv do a somersault, she tries her hardest to do one, too.

And also she is getting a little braver and jumping a little higher, which makes this mama a little more nervouser.  But she loves it so much I don't have the heart to not let her do it. 

I love these sweet girls of mine!!  So so much. 

Little splash park

We went to a little splash park in town the other day.  This splash park is new, but to be frank, it's not in the best part of town.  So we avoided it all summer because it was usually swarming with unsupervised kids who would walk there and be, well, unsupervised.  But now that school is back in, it's sitting there empty!  I'm sure the water will be turned off this weekend, so I'm glad we got to visit it once this summer.  Well, the girls got to anyway.  Not so much the boys.  But what they don't know won't hurt them right?  Poor wittle boys. 

That's Liv with her little friend Kate.

Annalise barely allowed the water to touch her.  She likes swimming, but she is not a big fan of splashing water.  She would get close to the spray and then run away screaming.  She thought she was a daredevil, that's for sure.
