Just Hanging Out

It's funny how once the warm weather arrives, time seems to slow down and the fun begins.  Sam went to Grandma's house this week to spend some fun one-on-one time and it was reported that he was a perfect angel.  Meanwhile, here's a few things that Mabel and Max did this week.

Max and Mabel love to eat bagels with cream cheese for breakfast.   I think it's cute how Max always dives nose first into his. 

It finally warmed up enough to whip out the pool....infact our backyard warms up so much in the afternoon that the slide is scorching hot, so we turned it into a water slide....problem now is that we need a bigger pool.  The kids come down the slide so fast they nearly slide through the other side of the pool.

Popsicles are always a must for summer.

And summer wouldn't be nearly as much fun if we ate inside.   So Max and Mabel enjoyed a backyard picnic.  Mabel and Max enjoyed the swingset a lot this week.  Last week, when Sam and Max were home, they were too timid to play on the swingset, but Mabel warmed them up to it.

Sam was reported an "angel" in Salina with Grandma and Grandpa, however, once we got in the car to come home, he returned to his normal self and the tears and whining began to return.  It's kind of funny to see how they act when they are apart vs. when they are all together.  Mabel started doing a lot more silly things tonight, Max was a little more agressive to get attention, and Sam made sure his presence was known.  Now the real test begins now that they are all sleeping in the same room.
