Let's Catch Up


So, I haven't been blogging much recently and I feel like I have missed so much! 

The problem is time. There is just not enough time in the day to do all the fun things I want to do, all the things I have to do, and still have time to sit down and write about it. And at the end of the day I would rather be living my life than recording it, so thus explains the stale blog and my full backlog of photos waiting to be posted or shared somewhere.   

There is no way I could cover every fun thing we have done during my blogging hiatus, (and lets face it, no one would be interested in reading that much about us anyway) so I thought I would just do a quick picture catch up to let you in on a few of the fun things we have been up to.

Uncle Drew visited for a few days...
and Attia showed him her belly button.
And her feet :-)

We played at the new kid place in town, LOL Family Zone, and it was loads of fun! We can't wait to go back!

Attia had lots of fun crawling through the giant indoor jungle gym.

And she made friends with a ventriloquist dummy, who she thought she needed to take to every activity with her - the bounce pillow, the cars, dress up... :-)


 There were several other areas and rooms that she liked too. The stage and dress up area, the art room, and the kitchen were big hits. Before we could leave she had to run around to each thing and try it out one more time. We will definitely have to go back!

We made a few trips to the library...

And a few trips to the playground...

And every Sunday for the past few weeks (and some other random days too) we have been going out for a ride with the tandem and trailer. It has become a really enjoyable weekly family activity!

One day she insisted on where bike clothes also. She pulled it out of daddy's drawer and wasn't satisfied until I put it on her. 

Sometimes baby comes along.

And of course there are fun perks that come with bike rides too.

We watched a couple of concerts in South Park, put on by the Lawrence City Band.
Marching to the
Mickey Mouse March
We met up with Jack and Aunt Heidi for the Children's Concert. 
And we went to the last concert of the season with Aunt Heidi, Uncle Drew, Jack, Gram and Grump. This one was a 'Star Spangled Spectacular' complete with fireworks and a canon! Attia had mixed emotions about the fireworks. :-)

I'm sure we did many more really fun things, but that's all I will take your time with for now. I'm sure there will be many more to come. :-)

    1. I know, I wish we were closer! It would be so much fun if all of the kids could play together. Hope we can see you soon! We need to meet little Miss Edison!
