Another Picture Day

Playing outside

Yesterday the weather was so beautiful. There was no humidity so we spent most of the afternoon and evening outside. We had a house full for a BBQ my sister Nik came over and brought Mr Chris and half his family, well not really, but we had a lot of fun. With so many people around the Bambinos were worn right out....... very cool at bed time they were out like a light.

Some pictures I missed

I am trying to organize all the pictures on my computer and store them to disk. But the program I'm using confuses me. I have saved them in two separate spots now, but am unable to reopen them.... not a good sign for preserving them for future use.
The fun thing is I found some I liked, but I hadn't previously posted, so enjoy.......

Pictures of the day

Other then my day starting really early, it was a good one. We got out of the house really early. We got all our running around done by 12 just in time for the Bambinos to fall asleep as I pulled into the drive way. I woke them up with a bribe of being able to help me put away the groceries if they didn't cry. I'm not looking forward to when the bribes won't be in my favor anymore.

New this week
Ava and Ethan have started playing together, as in follow the leader or playing tag. I've also seen Ava try to get Ethan involved in a game she was playing. This is the start of what everyone has been talking about that they can amuse each other. So loving it! With this new skill however comes tag teaming, one after the other through a series of tests for me..... really we're not supposed to do that? Ethan at this point will let Ava do more of the testing although he is more defiant on his own.

I took some pictures in the backyard today so if I get to them tonight I'll post some :)

Bees

Ava found another bee today. She somehow managed to pick the only stone on the shore with a bee sunning on it. This one got her on the other hand. She shed a few more tears this time. The swelling wasn't as bad though, hopefully this is her last painful run with BEES.

Canada Day

Waving to granddad in the boat

We made a quick trip to the cottage in the morning. The kids did great this year, there were no tears about the life jackets for the boat. Ava even willingly got into hers.

Race You

Nothing better then a nice cold drink and a deck
