What Have We Been Up To?

Well I'm long overdue for a blog post, I'm sorry it's been so long!! There has been so much going on with our house loan, Kevin starting a new job, Callie's birthday, Keira going to camp, Keira's first dance recital and now Keira's birthday party this Saturday.

We've enjoyed our time here at grandma's swimming & playing, but now we are really ready for own own place!! As I am sure grandma and papa are too! We were originally scheduled to close on the house June 30th, but it's been pushed back to around July 15th. We had some setbacks with the loan since Kevin started a new job and had to start over with a new lender. That combined with the fact that the builder is a little behind schedule. However, it's coming along nicely; we have a driveway, tile inside on the floor and bathrooms, our granite is in as well. Now we are waiting on light fixtures, plumbing fixtures, carpet, and grass! Hope to have some updated pictures soon.

Meanwhile, here are a few pictures of the girls and what we've been up to the past month!

Callie learned how to drink out of a straw! She is so proud of herself!

Gardening with Grandma! The girls LOVE to help water plants, plant new ones, and generally anything outdoors!

I got sprayed with the water hose by sissy!

Keira getting her nails painted

And showing off her dance moves

Here is a turtle we found on one of our many walks. It was pretty hot so we moved him back down into one of the small canals so he can get to the water. We thought about keeping him but with the dogs around thought it might not be a good idea!

The girls love swinging in the hammock out by the pool. Mommy & Daddy do too!

 

I have some adorable photos from Callie's birthday party & Keira's first dance recital I hope to post this week. Quiet time to do this is rare with the 2 girls and Keira not really napping anymore!
