Labor Day Weekend

This weekend has been pretty busy. Stephanie and the girls came in town this weekend so we spent most of it with them. We don't see them often so when they're here I try to let the girls spend as much time with Isabella as they can. We went to The Streets of Indian Hills and did some shopping and playing at the water fountain. Isabella still doesn't care to get in it. She just stands back and watches as the other kids play. You can hear a giggle or two as she watches. We went to the Children's Place and they had a ton of sales going on for fall clothes. Then we went to eat at Mimi's cafe. It was really great food! It's a very loud restaurant so it worked out for my little squealer and all the kids.
Saturday was another baby shower for Amanda and Harrison at my dad's house. We had a great time. The kids had fun together. Tessa was at home with daddy so she didn't come to this one. Isabella was mostly concerned with how much tissue paper she could pull out of every present. So silly.


Sunday we went swimming at Aunt Kim's and grilled hot dogs. Then this morning I couldn't help take pictures of Isabella in her pajamas sitting in her doll cradle. She sits down in there with all her stuffed animals and plays and laughs. She's laughing at Peter being silly.


Later today we plan to visit Mikayla. Leshia and I have been wanting to get the girls together for a while now. Since Mikayla and Isabella are in the same class at church we wanted them to get to know each other better and play together. I'll post some pictures of that play time too.

On another note, all I'm hearing about on the news is Hurricane Gustav. Let's pray for these families. You know they are reliving Katrina in their minds as they evacuate. Shawn (my brother-in-law) is also in Texas workingclose to L.A. so this is a family concern of mine as well. Hope everyone has had a wonderful Labor Day weekend.
