Splash Pad Fun

Fun at the Splash Pad!  When did Declan get so big?

Sad Day

Eloise, our sweet little kitten passed away this morning.  Eloise was super thin and we brought her in to the vet first thing yesterday because I was worried about her. She was in bad shape (and younger than we were told) I spent all day yesterday giving her droppers of water and giving her fingertips of meat baby food.  It was a houseful of tears this morning. 



Thankfully we already had a busy day planned and it helped to get everyone out of the house and busy.

Face Painting cheers anyone up

Bagpipes!

After the Scottish Festival we headed to the next town for their annual homeschool curriculum sale.  I had been putting money aside for a while and I'm glad I did!  So much great stuff!   We got there later then I meant, but it worked out great because people were starting to discount their books. 

Afterwards we went to the park for everyone to run around and play.

My beautiful butterfly - I mean Claire

Silly Fiona

It's Batman!

Our Little Lady

We went to the park today and I was just struck by how beautiful Fiona is.  She is such a little lady and ball of spitfire all rolled into one.  She can keep up with her big siblings, but loves a cuddle.  She plays mama with her dolls and loves on her baby brother but loves playing with Chandler's cars.  She is turning into the most interesting little person. 

3/4 Birthday and the Park!

I'm a slacker mom - but Declan is 9 months old!

He is a total mama's boy with 2 teeth and has just started getting on his hands and knees. 

And one of all my crazies!

Then we headed to get froyo and the park!  Everyone had a lot of fun - even Declan!

Waterfalls and Park

Well, it wasn't what we planned but we had fun this weekend.  We wanted to take the kids for a little hike around Cliffside Lake, but when we got up there we found out it was still closed for the winter.  So we ended up going to Dry Falls (always a favorite) and went to the playground in Highlands.  The kids enjoyed it.

Warm Days = Park Days

 It is finally warming up!  One evening we went to the park as a family and everyone loved it.

Declan's first time on the swings!  He loved it!

At the Park

I had the kid's pictures taken today!  It looks like everyone cooperated and made nice faces.  Hurray!  I can’t wait to see them.  Since everyone was so good we played in the park for an hour.  They had fun and it was nice to just sit in the sun.
