Hello Summer

We welcomed in Summer 2013 this weekend, well, by doing "summer things."

We planted flowers.

The Little Lady has taken it upon herself to name herself the "flower waterer".
The poor flowers...they're going to drown if we don't stop her.
And don't you like her gloves.
{I love how she's looking quite pleased with herself in the second picture!}


She supervised her Dad putting in the swamp cooler.


We swam for the first time of the season.


Poor kids...I think they need a bigger pool.

GW thought the water was a little cold, he never got too upset,
but he didn't love it as much as his sister.


And, we had a "Teddy" party.
{The Little Lady calls Rapunzel, Teddy...that's another story for another day.}

Why did we have a Teddy party???
Well, potty training has been quite the project with this stubborn child.
Awhile back I asked her what it was going to take.
She told me that she wanted to have a Teddy party.
Easy enough.
I've had the stuff a month or two now, Wednesday, she told me
 "I'm going to have that Teddy party."
So between then and Monday afternoon, she had just one accident.
So, we had the Teddy party.
Hopefully, this is it.


Here's to a great summer!

Wow, sounds like summer is off in your neck of the woods, too!

Love that she did it all by herself, wanted a party and knew just what it'd take to get there, way to go Little Lady!!
