They are finally here!!

So it took me forever, but now they are finally here!  I have finally uploaded the pics from last weekend.  Oh, wait, no!  The weekend before!  haha.  I am so terrible!  These are mostly all from the Hop Festival in Moxee and a few others that we took just around the house.  I have been horrible about taking pictures lately and need to start remembering to do so! 

I could have sworn the was something worth writing about, but as usual, I can't seem to remember.  I am seeing this as a common thread lately.  My mind has just been worthless the last couple of weeks!  Just yesterday, I was wrapping a gift for my cousin's baby shower (part of which included some BOY outfits) and was happily humming along while I placed the gifts neatly into the bright pink baby girl gift bag.  Then continued to put pink tissue paper into it.  I placed the gifts in the back of the van and then realized I didn't have a card, so I went upstairs to make one..... got out the pink cardstock, found some super cute pink baby stickers and went to work.  As soon as I went to write on the card, I was trying to remember what they were naming their new little baby.  Then it dawned on me.  Joshua.  They are naming the little baby BOY Joshua.  Me = Dumb-o!  haha.  So I had to start over with the card and make a boy card (which turned out awful since most of the baby stickers I have are girl!) and I stuck them in the bag, put the girls in the car and headed to Yakima to drop it off.  Yup, that's right.  I left the gift in the pink bag......!  oops.  But I didn't have time to rewrap it (nor do I think I already have any BOY or even NEUTRAL baby bags that were big enough)  So poor Theresea is going to get a pink gift bag..... haha.  At least the clothes I picked out were boy!

This weekend we are going to go to Camano Island and go to Shawn's 10 year class reunion.  (which is why I had to drop the baby shower gift off instead of getting to go..... boo!)  I don't think I am entirely looking forward to it.  (Nor do I think anyone looks forward to going to someone else's reunion....)  But I am trying to be a good sport about it because I don't want him whining too much when it's his turn to go to mine next year!  haha. 

Shawn nearly gave me a black eye the other day.  I swore I was going to wake up with a big one yesterday morning, but I didn't.  I do, however, have a few HUGE bruises on my arms!  Argh.  We've been playing racquetball quite a bit lately at the YMCA.  It's (usually) fun, except when I whack myself with the racket! Or when Shawn nails me with the ball!  (though I did get him back today..... haha!) The girls also love it because they get to play in the childcare center.  Hannah especially loves it.  As soon as we get to the front door of the Y, she is on a dead run to the childcare center.  She sprints in there and makes a bee line to the ball pit!  haha.  And to think that she usually cries whenever we leave her somewhere......! 

Now I really can't think of anything else, so here goes the pictures.....!


Hannah woke up from her nap the other day with big bumps like this!  It kinda freaked us out since we had no idea what it was!  We finally decided to give her some benadryl, thinking maybe she touched something she was allergic to (no idea what) and maybe rubbed her eyes?  They went down though pretty quickly after the benadryl though!  So that made for a thankful mama!  She, of course, was still as happy as could be!


At the Hop Festival!  Having their first otter pop!  And boy, did Hannah love it! 

And so did KaeLee!  These have now recently become a staple in the Cox freezer!

Hannah running around, making grandma chase her.  She was just running around everywhere clapping her hands like a happy little seal.... haha

Silly girl...

Hannah riding her first pony! She loved it and did NOT want to get off!! haha!

I think KaeLee had fun too..... she never really showed any emotion.  But she said she had fun.

Took a break from the festival and rode on the tire swing with uncle Konner

Slide time!

the next day, after the hop festival, we went out to my aunt's house for a BBQ with my cousins from Montana.  The girls got to go swimming with uncle Kory and uncle Konner.  And they got to try out their new puddle jumper life jackets.  Hannah absolutely LOVED the water!  And she instantly started kicking when she got in the water!!  It was SO cute!

KaeLee is much more content and comfortable in a secure, safe floatie toy.  But just holding her in the water is not okay with her..... haha.

Uncle Konner with KaeLee

Uncle Kory with Hannah while she kicks away...!

Cole, Scott and Dawn's oldest, was also in the pool playing

More pool fun

Hannah tries to hula hoop!  She's so funny!

KaeLee and Kira playing together and neither of them are wanting their pictures taken!  haha

Hannah sitting with Auntie



Hannah was really into looking at the pictures on mom's camera

Then she saw me taking a picture of her, looked up and said CHEESE! haha

KaeLee joins in with the looking!  They love looking at pictures of themselves!

Uncle Konner gives the girls rackets from the badmitten......

And they are off and running with them in no time!

Last weekend we went up to Rocky Reach Dam to play on the toys, but they were super hot and untouchable, so we went inside to see the fish.... Here is a salmon!

Hannah and Shawn looking at the fish!

KaeLee and mama on the lookout for fish.  KaeLee is quite stubborn lately and refuses to smile for pictures anymore!  Argh!

Lately, one of Hannah's favorite thing to do it play dress up with all of her pretty jewlery!  If you call her pretty while she has it all on, she will dance around like a ballerina!  haha  She's so cute and IS so pretty!

I just really liked this one of her! 

The girls being silly!


That's all for now, folks!  Have a great Friday!
