Today it was raining in the morning so we decided to take a day off of the waterslide. The kids were so tired from the last two days that they slept until 8:30 AM this morning! Wow. Soren's normal routine has been 6 AM lately, so this is a huge improvement.
Today we went to Brooke's house to celebrate her 3 rd birthday. On the way over to her house Soren started to point, yell and then started to cry. He said "it's red, it's red, you were supposed to stop." He saw a stop sign on the side road and thought it was for us. Apparently he knows what a STOP sign is and was very worried that we missed it. I see a backseat driver in our future....
Here's some pictures from last night and today:
Last night the kids got their first Root Beer Floats-- they loved them!
Kaia ended up shirtless, because she was really getting into hers.
Since we were already shirtless we just let her go in the swim diaper, but she insisted that we get her, her shades!
Today Soren and I made a flag cake. I use a can of diet sprite instead of eggs and oil, so if you ever ask him how to make a cake he'll tell you that "you just dump the pop in and stir" and he's correct :)
Using pop instead of eggs also makes the batter safe to eat, so I let him lick the spoon.
Kaia was in timeout and was sad so Soren went to sit with her.
Here's the flag cake that Soren and I made!
Soren enjoyed eating the flag cake too!
Marty got "snaps" for Soren. These were his fireworks for tonight. He thought they were awesome. He got so excited that he wiped out on the driveway and has a pretty nasty cut on his toe. He shook it off and continued to do his snaps. We can see the Lakeville fireworks from our front lawn so once they started we decided to wake him up to show him. He came down to look at them, but decided he was just too tired and wanted to go back to bed.
Happy 4th of July! Thanks for reading our blog!!
