FATHER/SON CAMPOUT & GIRLS NIGHT

Friday night was the Father/Son campout. Geoff and Aedan were pretty excited about it so they decided to go. We packed up our little tent, some sleeping bags and goodies and off they went!  Geoff said that Aedan had a great time!

Doing some poses in the tent:

Aedan wanted his animals to sleep with so Geoff said "Let's see what Mom packed for you". Inside his bag was his dog Geoffrey (yep... he named his dog after his Daddy.) and Pablo (Backyardigans). He was soooo excited so he hugged each of them.

Then he played some games on Geoff's new ipad2 (he's super excited about that!) before bed.

In the morning they got dressed and Aedan had to stop for a pose in front of the tent. Man... I love this kid!!

Then they went to eat some breakfast with the other fathers and sons. Aedan just chilled talking to everyone. I guess all the guys got a huge kick out of him. They all let me know at church how cool he is. :)

(he was my Ragnar captain and he's pretty cool!)

Geoff tried to get Aedan's milk mustache

While the boys were gone Cali and I had a girls night! We read some books and then got some pillows and our blanky's and got all comfy to watch Tangled and have some ice cream...

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!

This morning I took the kids to a favorite flower shop of mine to get some flowers to deliver to Grandma for Mother's Day. They didn't have a great variety but the kids were very excited and I let them pick which one they wanted to give her.

They picked a cute basket of flowers which Aedan carried inside her office and gave it to her with a balloon. She was very surprised and excited.

Happy Mother's Day Grandma!! We love you!!

DIRT

Today the kids wanted to go outside and drive some of their cars in the dirt. Aedan packed up some of his cars (just to walk down the stairs) and set up a little area by the big tree outside. He had a great time driving the cars around in the dirt and over all the roots from the big tree. Cali just played along or ran around.

Aedan saw me taking pictures and said "wait Mom, the sun is in my eyes." Then he stood up and posed for me. This kid cracks me up!

Then he was back to playing...

Gotta get one of this little cutie too...

Then after all the playing in the dirt, the cars were dirty! So of course, they needed a bath! Aedan and Cali washed all the cars and then laid them on a towel to dry.

TIP: Don't let your kids give their toys a bath without supervision unless you want a pool of water on your sink and floor. Seriously!

SWIMMING!!

Today we went swimming!! We went last week too but I didn't take any pictures because I was holding both kids. They have floaties now and last time they were both too scared to let go of me. Today Cali was the same but Aedan let go of me after a few minutes and swam around all by himself! I was so proud of him!

Cali with her floaties!

Aedan still holding my hand...

Then he let go... 

(and was very proud of himself!)

Look how far away his is... all by himself!

Me with the kiddos...

POLKA DOTS & POSES

Cali's dress yesterday matched her little fingers and toes. It was pretty cute. She also wore some new shoes that I love. :)

And of course Aedan wanted pictures in his snazzy outfit. He's worn it before but he's been totally into his vest! He thinks he's such a stud all dressed up. It's so cute and I love the poses!!

PINK

Saturday night I painted Cali & my toes PINK. I also painted her finger nails. It's so adorable!! Since our feet matched we took pictures of them. Cali was acting silly so we have some silly feet pictures.
