I have a ton of pictures to share from the second half of summer. I can't believe that Cash will start 1st grade in 10 days. Aside from staying in the hospital when I gave birth to Millie, I've never been away from him for 8 hours. Like, never. It's strange that he'll soon be away from me 8 hours, 5 days a week. Sad. Also excited to have one on one time with Millie, but still sad. Anyhoo, here are some pictures of how we spent our summer days.
Osborne Aquatic Center. A regular activity for us. Cash has swim lessons Saturday mornings, after which we go outside to the outdoor pool and play area. Millie learned a song, Who Let the Dogs Out, while visiting Nana in June and every time we would go down the slide she would sing it all the way down. It was hilarious. There was no singing all day but the moment we started sliding she started shouting that song then she'd stop at the bottom. Silly girl.
A visit to Enchanted Forest with my friend Mandy and her girls Addison and Alexis. Addison and Cash were attempting to make a scary witch face at the mouth of the witch slide. They get along so well and loved playing together all day.
The Benton County Fair. Cash and Millie both tried out this rocket ship ride and although it went very slow, once it started it was VERY loud and it scared Millie so she started crying. I had to ask them to stop the ride so I could get her off. Josh wanted me to make her tough it out but I just couldn't do it, the poor small fry. :(
I take Cash to horse riding lessons every 5-6 weeks and Millie ALWAYS begs me to go. She has to wait until she's 5 years old though for liability and
safety reasons. I saw the opportunity to make it up to her by letting
her ride a pony at the fair.
My brave boy jumping.
Millie's first haircut. She doesn't have enough hair to give her a full haircut but her bangs were always in her eyes so we trimmed them up. I think it made her feel special to sit in the chair and to have someone do her hair. She was all smiles.
Back to school haircut!
