Teddy Bear Picnic

I can't believe we only have a handful of days left of summer. It seems like summer slips through our fingers like the sand on the beach. We had to sneak in a little teddy bear picnic for a fun lunch today.

Sticks (pretzels), bear sandwiches, teddy grahams, gummy bears, and honey sticks.

How old are you?

I love to listen to my little peeps chitter chatter.

 

Oliver: How old are you?

 

Paisley: I two and a half!

 

Oliver: So, I'm five and a whole!

The Fair

Thursday was free kids day at the fair. Grandpa came down and went with the kiddos and I. He treated me to my admission. Thanks for the fun day papa. We love spending the day at the fair with the animals.

Sweet Accomplishment

It is always a sweet day when a little is officially potty-trained. Miss Paisley took about 48 hours. Good job cutie pie. x0x0
