with bailey out of town, and all of us needing a break from the house . . . we headed to g &g's for some relaxing time . . . okay, so life isn't exactly relaxing ever around here . . . but a little time by the pool was nice! :)
the girls were little fish! :) mck was swimming all around with no float the whole time - jumping off and swimming to the side . . . even practicing diving for things at the bottom of the pool! WOW! mck went from not wanting to jump off the rock or the side of the pool when we got there . . . to two days later jumping off the rock with no one there to catch her and only one layer of foam in her float! AMAZING! and little kam . . . well, she wasn't scared from the start . . . kind of makes you nervous! she walks in with her floaty, goes under, drinks a bunch of water, and comes up smiling and coughing! :) we really have to keep an eye on her! :)
we spent a lot of time in the pool and just hanging out! :) it was great! we went to market street to see the "dancing" fountains and get an ice cream. the fountain is really cool . . . lot of fun to watch! :) we got some ice cream . . . kam picked marshmallow with m&m's, ken picked cotton candy and mck picked cotton candy with sprinkles . . . but ate everyone else's and then couldn't finish hers! :)
we walked over to the splash fountain where kids were running through in clothes and bathing suits. the girls all sat on the wall . . . not one of them even attempted to go touch the water until i said something about them being "weird" kids for not wanting to touch the water . . . they all chimed in with something about wanting to . . . pretty soon, they were all SOAKED! they all ran around having a great time until it was time to go and they realized they didn't have clothes to change into! :) they all got to ride home in their skivvies! a big treat! :)
we had a great time . . . then grammy offered to watch the girls for a couple days! :) ken and mck stayed for the weekend! it was nice to have a break and they had an awesome time! :) they didn't miss me a bit! :) it was really nice to have some time with just kam (and not breaking up any fights!) it was amazing to me how much easier just having one kid was . . . what are we doing having a fourth? CRAZY! :)
when i picked the girls up they were so excited to see me, but more excited to see kam! it was really sweet . . . of course the sweetness lasted only through the night . . . everything quickly returned to normal! :)
