June Happenings

Summer is in full swing around here and we are loving every minute of it.  Here is what our days looked like in June.
 
Science Experiments...
 

Making a volcano.
 
As soon as it bubbled up his reaction was to back up as fast as he
could to get away from it.  This was the same reaction he had when we did this last summer.   

Sun prints.

I love his face.  He was so surprised at the outcome.

 
Hanging out at the pool...

We go to the pool about 1-2 times a week.  I was a little unsure how I was going to be able to handle taking two kids to the pool by myself but so far it has been great!  Joshua does a great job with his floaties and Kayla has a little floatie lounger she just hangs out in though she is starting to not want to be restrained and wanting more freedom.  Might need to look into floaties for her size.  If we aren't in the big pool are playing in the kiddie pool where Kayla crawls and crawls until I go rescue her from going under water and repeat until I get too worn out to chase her. 

First picnic at the pool of the season.
 
 
 
 We love when Daddy can come to the pool with us!
 
 
Look at that face.  Pure delight!  She was having such a great time!
 
 Popcorn, popsicles and forts oh my..

 
 

It doesn't get much better than this for a little boy does it?!
 
CFA's Pirate and Princess Day...
 
Joshua dressed up as a pirate for CFA's Pirate and Princess day.  I didn't get a picture of Joshua dressed up because he was too busy playing but I did get these of Kayla and the cow.
 
She spotted the cow.
 
He's coming her way!
 
 

 
Fun at the park...

Playing outside...

 
 
Fun at the splash ground...


 
Notice whose water bottle she has?!
 
One of his favorite buddies, Cayden. 
 

 
Lots and lots of water fun at home...

Playing with the noodle wall.

 
Bowl of shaving cream + tub of water+ farm animals= 1 whole hour of fun

She likes putting her face in the water. 

Yes she sure did climb right on in the pool with her clothes on. 
 
 
Having a "juice" party with Jake the Pirate and Mickey Mouse.
 
 
In preparation for baby number 3 we moved the car seats around to make room for the baby's seat and we also turned Kayla's seat forward facing. 
Kayla's first ride faving forward.  She likes looking
out the window and asking, "what's that?" 
Joshua likes to hold hands with her almost first thing
when we get in the car.

Snack time.   
 
Joshua's favorite things to play with right now are a bungee cord, tape, and rubber bands.  He is constantly coming up with crazy ideas.
 

 
 
Poor Dog is zip lining.
 
I asked him to put this ball in our pool bag
(the yellow bag you see in the picture).  Guess he got distracted.
Either that or he thought the handle of the vacuum was a better spot.
 
  
He likes to tie a rope around his giraffe riding toy then tie it to his motorized car and tow it.  It kept coming undone so Daniel drilled a hole to tie the rope in.  Apparently the hole also makes for a good sunglass holder.  

Kayla wore her first pony tail this month and looks absolutely adorable.  She hates getting her hair done and pulls it out any time she sees it in a mirror.

 
And this is what her hair looks like after we take her
pony tail out at the end of the day.

 Omah and Papa took Joshua to a Rodeo. 


 
 
Omah and Papa days...
 
Joshua just loves going to spend the day at Omah and Papa's.  I love how comfortable both the kids are there and how much fun they have.  It really is like a 2nd home for them.  Of course having a day to myself is nice too ;)  


Pool time with Omah, Papa, and Aunt Anna...
 

 
As you can see our summer is off to a great start!
