Yesterday I was sitting outside and Kelsi climbed into my arms around 6:00 and snuggled up to me. By 6:30 she was asleep (which she never does). After a while I put her in her bed. Around 10:00, DJ changed her diaper and put her pajamas on and she woke up around 8:30 this morning. She has had a tough time taking naps this week instead of playing and I think it had taken its toll. 14 hours straight... And she even woke up happy! :)
We went to Raging Waters again with a Village Activity. Grandma Nettie and Pa came with us and we had a delightful time.
We went to Wheeler Farm with Duncan and his mom and brother.
We learned how to curl hair with a straight iron. :)
Jes had her last day of Gymnastics- she has been going all summer and loving it, but she starts preschool soon.
Jessica and Grandma Bear (and I) had a great time making caramel apples.
We went Piano shopping. I have been looking on and off over a year, but mainly at used pianos. We found one we love at a clearance price this week so as of Friday we will have a piano!!! I am so excited!!!
We snuggled
And we canned peaches. The girls were delightful and actually quite helpful. Thankfully I put old clothes on Jessica. :) Saturday I canned 28 qts by myself (no kids) (delightful) and Monday evening I did it with the girls and it was certainly messier, but we had a good time together.
Here are just some fun shots. Kelsi has enough hair for piggies!!!
She now sleeps in Jessica's room in a toddler bed. This was her first night.
And we made gingerbread men. We read the book and at the end it had a recipe that said "bake the gingerbread man, let it cool and then QUICK!!! Eat him before he runs away!
A few weeks ago Jessica wanted us to take off her training wheels, and she did really well. At the end of the session she had us put them back on, but they are raised pretty high. She loves to go tearing around the court on her bike, or any bike for that matter.
