Busy, Busy as always!

I know I always talk about how busy life is, but seriously!! Does it ever slow down?! I meant to post these pictures days ago, but obviously didn't get around to it. Last week was filled with lots of fun things....as I'm typing this, I can't even remember everything we did....I need to go look at the calender. See how my life is? Am I the only one like this? Anyway, David has been so busy studying for the dental boards so I have been trying to keep out of his way and do fun things with the kids.

For playgroup last Wednesday we went and toured Mercy Flight--the lifeflight helicopters--The kids loved it! They even got to see one of them land which was a big hit! They are stationed next to the airport and have this cute little area right by the runway where you can sit and watch the airplanes take off and land as well, which is always fun.

Maia was pretty excited to sit in the cockpit.
Here are all the kids lined up to watch the helicopter land.
One of the paramedics was really sweet and let all of the kids try on her helmet.
This is just a random picture of Maia, but I had to include it because it depicts what we see her wearing WAAAY too often....this girl is getting into this phase about changing clothes...she will change them 4 or 5 times a day. Sometimes it's into princess stuff, sometimes play clothes, sometimes sundresses, just whatever, but she LOVES to dress and undress and dress again!
Then on Thursday we headed to the beach with Megan, her niece Madi, and her mom, Alice. It was so much fun! Maia had a ball splashing around in the water with Madi. It was a perfect beach day and I'm so glad we got to get out and go. Thanks Alice and Megan for helping with Elsie so I could play in the water with Maia...couldn't have done it without them!

Maia loves the water and could play in it all day!
And here's our little chunk...rolls hanging out everywhere! How come it's so cute when you are a baby, but not so much when you are an adult?
Then on Friday we hit up some garage sales, of course, and scored this sweet "Arcade Sprinkler" for free. We just had to try it out so we called some friends over and played outside that afternoon.
Below is a picture of Maia and her friend Rylee playing the "arcade" game on the sprinkler. So exciting. And I know Maia's swimsuit it totally from the 80's but it is her "outside/sandbox" swimsuit. Yes, we have separate ones...no sense dirtying up the cute ones right?
That night we had a picnic at this cute little place by the Niagara River with the Fox's and the Davis'. It is a really fun place to go. They have picnic tables and a walking trail and little restaurants right on the river front. It is so pretty!

David and the kids watching the boats on the riverfront...
Maia's first experience with an ice cream cone...as you can see, she LOVED it.
This is one satisfied little customer!!
I guess that brings me to this week where now I have no energy to post anything about what we've done...some other day....maybe.
