Jeff went camping again this weekend, and the kids and I are totally missing him.  It's funny how much I look forward to Saturdays, because it's the one day that I can get some extra help with the kids.  It's almost like a rejuvenation for the upcoming week.  

The day before Jeff left on his trip I went to get the stroller out of the car, so the kids and I could go for a walk.  This is what I found in the back of our car.  Needless to say I had to think of something else to do with the kids.
We decided to head over to the racket ball court.  The kids LOVE running around in it.
Bella discovered her echo, and was having so much fun hearing herself repeated.
Today I noticed Logan at the breakfast table finishing up his cereal.  Where did he learn this?
Bella decided to concur the stairs.  I'm glad she is learning now, because my parents have a lot of stairs in their home.  It will be good to know that Bella will have some confidence with the stairs when we get there this summer.

I'm still working on getting a photo of my kiddos, and I still haven't had any luck.
I told the kids to give kisses.  Bella is blowing hers and Logan is going for Bella.
Apparently we will have to think of another punishment than washing Bella's mouth out with soap.
She actually got a bite out of the bar of soap, and liked it.  She is crazy!
Then she moved on to cotton balls.  Check out her facial expression.  She  can be so sassy sometimes.

Why are kids so peaceful looking when they are sleeping?
I bought some wrapping paper at the dollar store, and let the kids go to town on it for Jeff's Father's Day gift.  I'm thinking I might frame it, because it turned out pretty cute.


Here's some video of the kids playing, and Bella tackling the stairs.

Where did you find the free Mommy and me day? That looks so fun. I would love to go. Where is that strawberry patch? I need to come up and hang out with you and Krista. I'm always so impressed by how many fun things you plan for your kids.

Fun! And I totally disagree with your statement about "I'm still working on getting a photo of my kiddos, and I still haven't had any luck." The picture of Logan and Bella doing kisses is AMAZING! I LOVE IT! Their expressions are perfect - it is SO both of them.
