Skirts! Shorts! Sun block! Bathing Suits! Pool! Is it summer already?
Nope! But it sure felt like it today. We dressed in shorts and skirts today and headed to the pool. We didn't stay too long but it felt great to get out in the sun and pretend it was summer. We met Courtney's little friend Boston at the pool and they played on the steps and splashed around. I fed Caylee and then Courtney wanted to eat snacks (of course! This little girl loves her snacks AKA lunch). She loves snacks so much that I just call her lunch snacks.
Afterwards, I had to go to get something at Best Buy so we grabbed lunch at the District, then headed home for naps. It was a quick dose of summer, but it sure felt good.
Once naps were over, I fed the girls early dinner and we headed out again. We went to the nature center in Newport Beach. I had heard they were showing a movie for the kids. I wish I would have known the situation before we went, but we still had a great time. It was just me and the girls that went, Daddy was on call tonight. They had the nature center open and we played around in there and then we went on a hike with the group, Courtney found a bunny and was calling it, "Sweetie Pie". Hmm wonder where she got that name?! After the hike we sat down for the movie, which was outside. Of course I had the girls dressed for summer and had taken out all our sweatshirts from the car. So we were a bit cold, a lady from the center loaned us a blanket. We lasted for awhile and then Courtney started to get really loud and silly which is her signal of getting really tired. But we really had a good time. I'll definitely take the girls again.
It was funny, by the time we got home, Courtney would go from super happy to crying back to happy in seconds. She was so worn out fronour busy day. I usually don't do this, but she asked to sit in her chair with me in her room. So I turned on the lullaby music and held her for about 20 minutes and just silently prayed for her. It was really sweet she quietly asked me if I would pray. I prayed outloud and then put her in bed. A perfect end to a great day with my girls.
Caylee was really cute this afternoon. She was so happy and laughing about everything. She was loving eating and any attention I would give her. She did great at the movie. She was even awake when we go home and I just laid her in the crib and she fell asleep as I got Courtney ready. Why did I get such a perfect baby? Thank you Lord!
