pool days

I finally braved the pool by myself with both girls.  It wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be and we had lots of fun.  Vivi went for a quick ride in her float and then snoozed in her stroller while I watched Emma Jane make new friends in the kiddy pool.  Many more pool days are in our near future...

We got Emma Jane some diving rings for the pool and she LOVES them.  She plays with them in and OUT of the pool.  On this day, she pretended they were "fairy crowns" for she and Vivi and even made sure the crowns she chose matched their outfits!

mermaids & pirates

We attended Emmy and Hudson's mermaid and pirate themed birthday party at Saluda Splash Playground this weekend.  Of course, if splashing is involved, Emma Jane is THERE!  We had a wonderful time celebrating the twins' birthday.

It was Vivi's naptime, so she slept soundly...

While big sis continued to SPLASH!

Emma Jane and Savannah not-so-patiently waited for these fountains to spray them.

It was worth the wait!

Vivian continued to sleep...

The birthday cakes were very cool!

Emma Jane sat herself right next to the birthday boy so as not to miss out on the action!

The girls at the party were given mermaid crowns.

Vivian FINALLY woke up!

I know she's thinking, "Are you sure I can't have a taste of that cake?"

parkin' it

We went to Riverfront Park with friends last week.  These girls know how to have fun!

Vivi enjoyed watching the big girls.

Viv and Charlotte looked at each other...

...and finally at the camera!

Vivian successfully used her straw sippy cup for the first time.

 

The mamas kicked back and enjoyed watching the girls play.

As always, we had a BALL!
