Pool Party!

Today we headed over to my sister's house to have a pool/sprinkler party with Abbie! It was a lot of fun...I might have went a little overboard with pictures...so what!?! hehe :)
I didn't pose them like this...I was taking a picture of Abbie and then Kenzie ran over and posed with her! They are so adorable together (when they aren't hitting, kicking, pushing, biting eachother!).

I had to post this picture....Can you guess what's on Abbie's leg...

Yes, a caterpillar! Ewww....a few minutes before, the caterpillar was on her bathing suit top and we brushed it off...then it started crawling up her leg! haha...Sorry Abbie that I had to take this picture before I let Grampy brush it off your leg! Hope you still love your Aunt KeeKee! :)

Playing Outside...

Kenzie putting ice on her boo boo....We were outside and she went running towards her slide on the driveway full speed! She fell face first on the pavement! Poor baby! Showing off her booboo...
Jumping on the bed while Mommy gets ready to go outside.... Caterpillars...
More caterpillars....
MORE caterpillars....YUCK!
I am very excited for caterpillar season to be behind us. I cannot speak for Kenzie, who loves "papas" but they gross me out! The other day we had a little caterpillar accident...Kenzie gently touched it like she usually does, but some how this one stuck to her finger, Kenzie freaks out and somehow poor Mr. Caterpillar ended up in pieces on Kenzie's hand and dress. It was beyond disgusting! I brought Kenzie inside and made Jeff wash her hands but she did not learn her lesson and within minutes she was after more "papas".
Lately Jeff & I have been going to the track to run. We usually bring Kenzie along and one of us walks around with her while the other one runs. She loves it! She can make it around the track 1 time (1/4 of a mile) by herself, both running and walking! We were impressed! I definitely want to buy her little Nike Shocks! :)
On this day it was way too hot....Kenzie ended up asking Jeff to carry her around the track while I ran. After, Kenzie and I just sat on the bleachers while daddy ran!

We decided on getting Kenzie a water table but have yet to buy one...
so for now she gets her own water pail! haha
She wasn't too sure at first....
She quickly decided she like it and I filled it up many times! :) She even tried to stand in this tiny pail!
I promise baby, mommy & daddy will either get you a kiddie pool or water table...we don't expect you to play with a tiny pail all summer! :)
All this outdoor fun is too much for this girl....

It's been awhile!

It has been 2 weeks since I've updated! I haven't had the urge to update and I think it's partly b/c I'm still a little bummed about not getting any mommy/daughter pictures on Mother's Day! I had a great Mother's Day despite not getting any pictures of us t/g! We started the day at church, came home for Kenzie's nap then went to Cracker Barrel for lunch/dinner and then my sister and I went out for our free ice cream sundaes with the girls! The weather was not so nice....cold, dreary, and rainy! Not the best weather in May! I wasn't very happy when Kenzie had to wear tights with such a Springy dress!
I did manage to take a couple pics of Kenzie before church... The other day Jeff left to get breakfast but did not close the door completely. I knew Kenzie was by the door but after a couple minutes of Kenzie being too quiet I went out to check on her. She had put on Jeff's shoes and she was sneaking out!
I wonder how far she would have gone before someone stopped her? Haha....I can just imagine a little girl in jammies and huge shoes walking down the sidewalk at 7 in the morning! :)
On Saturday Kenzie and I headed over to Oneonta for Tatiana's 4th birthday party! I can't believe Justine has a 4 year old! It seriously feels like yesterday when we were living in the Bronx and just found out she was pregnant! Time flies...and it crazy to think of how much has changed since then!
We had a great time at the party! Two of my good friends from college were also there! It was so wonderful seeing them....especially since my friend Cynthia has never met Kenzie and I have never met her youngest, baby Elijah! :) When we lived in the city, she lived upstate and then when she moved back to the city, we moved upstate and now finally we are all upstate! So hopefully we will see each other more! Sam & Kenzie! :)
Kenzie & Ayana! How cute are they!?!
After church last week...
Either looking for rocks, ants, or possibly caterpillars...
I'm not sure if this is just around our area or it's in other places too but it has been raining caterpillars!! These gross things have been falling from the trees for the last week or so. They are everywhere....I have even stopped running/walking outside because they just fall from the tree and there are 100's hanging just waiting to fall... Kenzie loves to point them all out and touch them (I try hard to hide how gross I think they are!).



We have a fun couple weeks ahead...1st my brother and sister-in-law had their baby boy, Brayden David on Wednesday! I'm so excited for them and I can't wait to meet this little guy!! Also, next weekend Jeff's family is coming up for the weekend! I can't wait to see Baby Drake again! And, the weather is suppose to be nice and warm for the next few days! And, tomorrow is my last day being a 5th grade long-term sub! The words: 5th grade & sub just do not mix very well! Haha...it's been a long 3 months! :)
