homemade popsicles.

We just love our popsicle maker from Mimi and Grandpa!  Popsicles and pool time, make the best Sundays!  Thanks Mimi and Grandpa!

first painting.

It has been really HOT this week, so we have been hanging indoors quite a bit.  To spice things up, we did some painting yesterday!  I was very excited to see how well Hazel did.  She hasn't really gotten into crayons just yet, so I was surprised at how much she loved using a paintbrush.  Hazel was so into it, she got upset each time we had to pause to dip the brush into more paint.  We had so much fun and now we have new artwork hanging in our kitchen!

Our clean canvas.

I showed her one stroke and then she was off on her own.

She only tasted the paint once :)

Trying new colors.

The artist at rest.

Our kitchen featuring Hazel's masterpiece!

Hazel had the best time walking Buster the other night.  Or was it, Buster had the best time walking Hazel the other night?

playN.

This weekend we had the chance to check out PlayN, an indoor play park.  They sell all kinds of swing sets and outdoor gear, and have samples out for people to try.  We had a great time testing it all out!

Trampoline!

Ben and Hazel looking so grown up!
