Hot Day at the Water Spray Playground

Today I had a moms group playdate at Crossroads Community Park in their water spray area. I never knew this place existed so I was really excited to find out about it. It's a great park with all these cool whales, dragons, rock walls, etc. that spray water, as well as a big dry land playground. Today was really hot so I was really looking forward to it. But, as has happened before, I never actually found the group! I had forgot the organizer's phone number at home so I couldn't call, and I've never yet met anyone so I had no idea who was with the group and who wasn't and there were way too many people to just start asking. In any case, we still had fun, although it was really hard for me to keep track of both girls by myself so we didn't stay too long. I'm hoping to go back in a few weeks when Paul is on vacation and can come with us (we could go on a weekend but I'm sure it's a zoo).

That park looks amazing! We go to splash parks every now and again...I can't keep track of them both either. One is in the water, one on the equipment! ;)

Transfer Anniversary

Today is the 5-year anniversary of my embryo transfer! 5 years ago today I became pregnant with my girls (I wrote about it in more detail a few years ago). It was a Saturday that year, also. Olivia and Kayley at 3 days post conception (wish I knew which one was which): And Olivia and Kayley 5 years later: That photo is actually a few weeks old. I tried to take one for today and this is what I ended up with: {Sigh}

The Girls' Room

So it's kids' rooms this week at Kelly's Korner Home Tours. Unfortunately, we haven't finished the girls' room make-over. We recently transitioned from toddler beds to twins. I would have loved to get bunk beds to save space, but the twin beds were given to us by friends of Paul's parents so we're making do. They were wood-colored (oak, maybe?) so we painted them white. It was challenging to figure out how to arrange their furniture because of the alcove/nook thingie on one side. I couldn't do the obvious two beds perpedicular to the wall with a nightstand in between configuration, so I had to compromise. There are lots of finishing touches still to be done. We need to replace their dresser, get a nightstand, put up a shelf (ledge) or two and some wall art, and curtains. We're also going to paint. I've had my heart set on purple for a long time, which is why I chose this bedding with some purple but not too much, but now...

Senior Prom

Last Friday was the girls' Senior Prom. A whole group of them met at a nearby park for photos, then they broke off into smaller groups and went to dinner and Prom. Olivia and her group rented an Air B&B for the night, and Kayley spent the night at a friend's house with another friend or two. Olivia and Gavin (just friends) Everyone Just the guys Just the girls Olivia and Kayley
