Pool time with my favorites!

My sister and niece came in town this past weekend and it was so great to have them stay with us! I LOVE visitors. With my family living in Lexington I sometimes feel so disconnected from them. I always get real pouty when I miss out on birthdays, family dinners, or lazy Sunday afternoons at my parent’s house. So, any chance that I can get to host them in my town of BG is a treat!! I love sharing my life with them and making new memories!

Now, not to upset anyone but my sister is always a very special visitor. Those of you who have sisters surely understand. She is like my other half….the yin to my yang…the peanut butter to my jelly…ha!! You get it? She is one of the few people who can make me laugh until I pee…which seems to happen more lately after giving birth!! And even though she is my baby sister she has taught me many things about being a mother and friend. I love how our relationship has grown throughout the years and I adore our time spent together more than ever now that we are both mothers. She is truly special and my life is so much richer with her and her beautiful daughter, Olivia, in it.

Enough with the sappy and on to the FUN!

On Saturday we took the kiddos the pool. It was Preston’s VERY first trip to the pool so I was a bit anxious about whether he would like it or if I was a terrible mother slathering him up with sunscreen and dipping him in chlorine at the wee age of almost 4 months. Well, I’m happy to say the trip was a success! He really enjoyed it! We stayed in the water for quite some time and he was perfectly content. Plus, he looked so stinking cute in his little outfit and hat. I LOVE a pool in the summer so I’m thrilled to know that Preston likes it too. I look forward to all the pool time fun in our future!!!

My little Beach Bum!!







Olivia is such a good cousin...pushing the very tired Preston out to the car!

Hope all of you are able to catch some rays with loved ones in the next few days too!
