Sunday, August 25th

Sunday was definitely an around-the-house day, doing a bit of leftover cleanup from our party and overall lazing about until the mid-afternoon.  Around 3:00 or so, our good friends the Cooks came over to swim, hang out and eat dinner with us.  What a lovely, restful day!


Jim and I always take turns sleeping in on the weekends - my day to sleep in is Saturday, and his is Sunday!  This is a beautiful thing :-)  I was trying to find things for the kids to do to keep relatively quiet and Victoria entertained herself for quite a while by talking/singing/making sounds at Waverly (who was also quite amused).



Meanwhile, Scarlett and Lincoln (later Victoria joined them, too!) were busily creating "booby-traps" and other exotic items out of a mix of play dough + ribbon + leftover party supplies.


Goofy Girls!  Scarlett and Sydney :-) 


Wavelry smiling away with Mrs. Cook~


Then the girls showed off their amazing hula-hoop skills, lol.  They are pretty decent with them, but more than anything I just giggle at the faces they make while concentrating so hard!



At first, Scarlett couldn't get it going around her waist - no problem, since she decided to use her neck instead :-p  I'm sure that's totally great for her spine.


Okay, now she was totally ready to dominate with it around her waist...


Going, going!


Gone!


It had been a really muggy morning and early afternoon, but then the clouds came and suddenly the kids said they were "freezing!"


Cute, random shot of Daddy & Waverly :-)  She is going to be a candy crush expert by the time she can work a phone from all of the many hours she's vicariously played along with Jim ;-)


Waverly's first bath in the actual bathtub!  At first she got a huge frown and I thought it was going to be major tears... that quickly moved to this face of "hmmm, how do I feel about this?"


Which was answered by a major smile and lots and lots of splashing! :-)
