On Saturday we enjoyed a wonderful BBQ with our dear friends Abby and Alex, who will turn six in a few short weeks! Great food, great friends and great times!
Ella is such a great eater....
....while Aidan refused to eat anything except a plain hamburger bun!
Mike had to work on Sunday, so we spent the afternoon at the pool with Grandmommy and Grandaddy. I do have to admit that it is tough managing the tots when 35 weeks pregnant, but I refuse to deny Ella and Aidan any fun, despite my personal exhaustion.
After a long afternoon in the sun and pool, we enjoyed a wonderful cookout at the Parkers. It was a wonderful day spent with family!
Monday evening we met up with the boys for some more pool time.
Let's just say that having Mike around to help out at the pool made a HUGE difference! Not only is is easier to keep track of the kiddos, but it also affords them the chance to do things that I just cannot do right now....
....like take them to the diving board....
....or the water slide!
Yep, our little man decided to give them both a try, and he was thrilled with himself - see what I mean?
Ella preferred a little less action, and stayed with me on the sidelines....
....but not without a few breaks for hugs with her favorite boys....
It was a memorable day filled with firsts for Aidan. Not only did he conquer the diving board and water slide, but he also swam without his floaties for the first time, and became quite good at diving for objects.
