Getting Creative!

Now that the sun is out we have been outside so much that I haven't been so attached to the computer. I did however notice while looking through my pictures that I needed to include some of our creative moments of fun during the nasty weather. Hopefully we won't have to be creative anymore and can just enjoy playing in the SUN! Here are some of the things that we have been doing...


Indoor Pool Party!!!

I put tarps and towels down and set up a kiddy pool and our slide in our basement. Henry was in HEAVEN. He loved playing in the water and the slide was super fast.
Emma also loved it and I was excited that I got to try out her new cute swim suit.
Henry got going so fast that he would totally flip under the water, it was really fun!

Sometimes Emma got in the way though! She liked to sit at the bottom of the slide and play.

The problem was that I wasn't in my swim suit and Emma kept coming over and bringing me books and movies and wanting to sit on my lap. I was pretty wet by the end.
So innocent.
Starting to get tired. Yes I am a bad mother, I stop to take a picture of my crying child.


Awww... much better. Here Henry, you can have it!

Thanks for being a wonderful sister-in-law!
