The fun continues with lots of family in town. It's a little crazy to swim with 7 kids, but luckily we had plenty of adults!
Nora is LOVING the water!
Kissin' cousins :)
Best buddies, Ham and Bo :)
After swimming all day, we had a houseful of tired kids!
Nora had a high fever for a few days that turned out to be roseola :(
Even with persistent high temps (103-104), she looked surprisingly perky at times. When she wasn't sleeping (which she did a lot), she played a little bit...
Trying to reduce our temp in a tepid bath...
Fever finally broke and we were back to our normal routine! Celebrating Mallie and Dallie's 37th Anniversary...
We also had a great 'staycation' just hanging at home this month. Playing moondough outside...
Just being so stinkin' cute!
Dancing in the rain...
Ballet class...
While Nick was out of town in CO for the week, Grandma came to stay with us. It was a good thing too, because the Smith kids (minus Rach and Cam) were still in town so we needed all the extra hands we could get :)
We still managed to get all 6 kids out for story time, picnic lunch, and feeding the ducks...
We also got to celebrate Grandma's birthday with a special dinner at Louie's and dessert at Steel City Pops with Linds and JE...
The kids are on a major puzzle and painting kick...
I even took the 3 biggest to paint ceramics...
The kids loved just playing in the back yard...
And watching movies...
(while trying to simultaneously scratch each other's back :)
Nora's appetite improved during this time...we finally realized it was because she ate better when she thought she was stealing food from Anna!
Upon return, Nick took Presley and Liam out for a special lunch treat at Olive Garden...
Liam also attend his friend Anu's birthday party. The girls were dressed as princesses and the boys were knights. He was so excited to see his buddies Laksh and Arkadeep...
The Smith kids left at the end of the month and while we miss them, we are so fortunate to have had a whole month to play together every day! (And we still get to play with baby Fox all the time :) Can't wait to see them later this year, and maybe visit them in Cali in the future!
