We had a great BBQ last Saturday. About 45 people (including kids) showed up. We borrowed a bouncy house from a neighbor and I had filled about 50 water balloons so the kids kept busy. The weather held out great with early rain and then clouding over so we didn't bake. Everyone had a fun time and there was enough food to go around. The house was empty around 10!
I had to work Sunday and had a full day. Monday Avelyn started her next session of swim lessons so we went to those early and then came home for a quick snack and then headed to the park to meet Jessica, Landon and Adelyn. After playing at the park for a while we went to lunch at Qdoba - our favorite! We went home after lunch and Avi took her nap and then we played around the house until Brandon got home. He and Avi played outside for a while while I got Zach ready for bed with a bath. He just loves to splash in the water now.
Zach is now able to clap his hands both on his own and when he sees someone clapping he'll join in. Sometimes he does it in rhythm with our song "clap, clap, clap your hands" which is just too cute - he's so proud of himself. He's also "crawling" across the room now using his legs to propel and arms to pull - he's not up on all fours yet but he makes due!
I had to talk with Avi about making sure she plays with her smaller toys on the table top and doesn't leave them on the ground. We had to call Zach "zaczilla" this morning while Avi was setting up her train set Zach kept smacking the bridge over. He can also move himself from prone on his belly back to up to sitting which makes it easier since he can correct his position himself and doesn't start crying all of the time. He also couldn't wait to get ahold of her puzzle pieces too. Should be an interesting next few months and beyond!
We head to Myrtle Beach on Monday and will be there for a week. We're excited for the beach but not really looking forward to our first traveling experience with 2 kids but I'm sure it'll be fine - Avi's a good traveler and Zach is so laid back.
