Prelude to Summer





We had a wonderful weekend with lots of playing! On Saturday we had a nice family walk/bike-ride and then hit the indoor pool. Gabby is doing awesome with her swimming and is a fish!  Lilly....not as comfortable in the water. Likes to play with it but not as excited about swimming in it yet. On Sunday morning we fed Aunt Susan's dogs and then hit the park. The spontaneous park sessions are the best - until the potty needs call and there is NO bathroom at this park. I think that is forbidden with new parks these days - but it is true, this park does not have a bathroom so we made a mad dash home and dad came to the park rescue. Lilly hopped in the bike trailer and Gabby on her bike and they went back to the local park and then over to the clubhouse for ice and soccer on the clubhouse grass. After nap time, both girls hopped into our pool! I couldn't believe it. It is cold and I have no interest in getting in, but they did! We are gearing up for summer...I am fearful that it is going to be a long and hot summer :(

Maddy is enjoying crawling everywhere. She is getting really fast and is very good at cruising. Not much interest in walking yet, but that's OK with me...they all come to do it at their own time. Lilly has gone a week without any accidents so I think we are making great progress in that department. I have to remind myself that she is only 28 mos! We forget and treat her like she is 3...she is in a mommy phase right now and it is wonderful and challenging at the same time because she wants mom to hold her ALL the time :)
