Weekend updates

Well, we've been keeping busy lately, but I haven't been taking too many pictures. Last weekend, we made it to the last Party at the Park at Fairmont. We love going to the horse races. We always have so much fun. Didn't win any money though. I thought I did, but then everyone informed me that Kenny won :(

Saturday, we didn't do much. We went to the Mills and got an outfit for each of the kids for pictures. Got my last 1 1/2 hrs at the pool for the year - that was nice! I rented 27 Dresses (wasn't too impressed...just okay). I think they hyped it up so much when it came out that it was kind of a let down. We also let Alli out of her cage and put her in a big girl bed. She loves it! She has been waking up every morning and coming in our room asking if she can 'play Mickey Mouse on the puter b/c its morning now'.

Sunday, we went to Brian and Gina's annual Labor Day BBQ. It was fun, but a little hectic with all of our kids. Although, that should be a given now....we always get stressed when we're out, even though they are good, we just don't have enough hands to go around and I hate to feel like I'm pushing my kids off on others to hold. Even though everyone swears its no big deal. Thanks for helping us out everyone :)

On Monday, Jim's parents came over and my mom too and we grilled and ate. My mom and I went to the casino that night. Neither of us won anything, but at least we didn't lose much :) Then Ann and I took a walk. It was a good weekend :)

So, now this weekend. Friday night, a cousin got married. That was a lot of fun seeing all of the family. Today, I took Allison to see Disney on Ice. It was her reward for going pee-pee on the potty so good :) She LOVED it. Kept waving to the characters as they were skating off and she brought her Mickey and Minnie postcard 'picture' so she can show them. When they would look her way and wave, she would hold up the picture for them to see. I don't think she realized with us being almost at the top, they weren't really seeing us :) Jim is at the Cardinal game with some of his bosses in a box....so free beer and food. I guess the wives weren't invited b/c I'm sitting here with the kids, updating the blog.

Our little Alli is becoming quite the singer these days-I'm not really too sure what this song is about, but something about bunny rabbits and puppy dogs. She likes to make up her own words. Bad quality b/c it was dark in the car and the garage. Sorry!


The babies are doing great! They are getting to be so much fun, ALWAYS laughing and smiling. They are sleeping very well through the night too lately. They really haven't been doing anything new right now. We are trying to start them on a few table foods. Cassie is still working on crawling. I think she'll be doing it any day now. She is always up on her hands and knees rocking back and forth.....just ready to go! Jimmy has been tolerating his tummy time a lot better lately and rolling over a lot more. I'm sure his physical therapist will be happy when she comes next week. Still working on Jenners.
