Rain, cool front, perfection

According to the kids' weather tracking notebooks, the last month has been very rainy. It seems as if every day has brought at least some rain.

Inside, Mirek gives kisses. He is VERY loving.

 I love watching her team. So entertaining!




 A cool front blew threw on Monday which is always fun.

 Eaden identified some different types of oak trees and brought her findings into the swap shop to rack up some more points.


 Serious investigations going on.








Perfect weather. Perfect day. It just doesn't get much better than this.

Mirek's 2nd Birthday!!

Thursday was Mirek's 2nd birthday! Although I have been trying to stay away from planning super busy days, I guess I can make an exception for birthdays. We woke up early and arrived at the zoo shortly after it opened. We got home at 2pm so that I would have time to bake a cake and sing happy birthday to Mirek after my husband got home and before taking the girls to swim lessons. After swim lessons, Eaden had gymnastics. After gymnastics, I took all of the kids over to my sister's house for a sleepover. Sound busy? Yeah. It was.
































 Here is a video of us singing Happy Birthday to Mirek.





Happy Birthday Mirek! We love you!

And here is a video of Eaden finally learning to swim!
