Brendan spent the night at Mamaw & GrandBob's house after the Mexican party. So the next morning when we came over to pick him up, we went for a quick boat ride since the lake was still relatively quiet. It went better than we expected, but wasn't 100% relaxing with keeping a close eye on Brendan and trying to hold Katelyn with her life jacket on. Brendan kept saying that it was too bright out on the water, so we dug out a pair of Mamaw's old sunglasses that she keeps on there just in case. They were "amber" glasses...he kept putting them on and saying "Everything's yellow!" :)
We had our annual Mexican Party today. Great weather, great food, and great time with family!
Katelyn got dressed up for the occasion in her dress from Aunt Suzi & Uncle Joe. Too bad Aunt Suzi, Molly, John, & Lily couldn't make it up for the party...we missed you guys!
Brendan had a blast playing in the pool and of course with his train cars & his pink Barbie car. Yes, that is what he calls the car..."my pink Barbie car".
Brendan moved up in classes at Gymboree this week. Instead of a 45 minute class, it's 60 minutes. I think that it wiped him out! He fell asleep in the car on the way home, even though it was only a little after 11am! I carried him inside and put him on the couch, expecting him to wake up, as he normally does when I try to move him. Slept for almost 2 hours even with the dogs climbing on him. At one point, Ellie was even licking him!
We made a trip to the Splash Pad again tonight hoping that Brendan would be more into it than yesterday. He did a little bit better, but still wouldn't really get wet. Oh well, I think that he still had fun!
We had a very low key 4th of July. We spent some time in the morning at a nearby park. We tried to get Brendan to do the Splash Pad, but he wasn't interested. After naps, we went to Mamaw & GrandBob's house for swimming & dinner.
Katelyn even woke up from her nap in time to enjoy the water too! I was afraid that she wasn't going to like it, as it was getting cooler out when she woke up, but she loved it!
