Play Dates

A big hug goes out to my friends and family who added so much happiness to our summer. Monday I return to school and Mehandis returns to daycare. A bit bittersweet but we have so much fun ahead!!!


I have also become more familiar with the world of play dates... and Mehandis is now doing more of the playing with the "dates" versus along side them. The following 3 photos are from a fun morning with Natalie and Rachel.


My "new" sprinkler find, from a resale shop, leaked a bit more than it sprinkled. But the kids still loved splashing in the puddles it made.


Don't ask Natalie to be the bubble blower of the group;) My speech therapist skills helped out with getting our homemade bubble solution going.
Mehandis loves to do his somersaults any chance he can... especially if sand or water is involved. All you have to say is "tumble" and he goes into a version of downward dog.

Our friend Carrie brought Gisela over for some playtime as well. Mehandis kept trying to get into Carrie's lap since that is where Gisela was. He also rocked his new little friend in her carrier and loved touching her toes. Gisela gave little smiles and kept her eye on Mehandis... smart girl.

Okay... we are now off for the cabin. One last Friday off for Michael before the family falls into the school year routine.

Michele, some aquarium cement might fix those leaks in the sprinkler toy. I've saved a lot of toys, appliances, even a birdbath with it! And as it happens, Aqua-Terra just moved even closer to you!
