Pirates Who Don't Do Anything

Movie with Spencer and Curtis Daems.

Girl Time

Since the boys were at Reds Camp and Addie was at a one day camp at Lifetime I decided to treat myself to a pedicure.  Lisa and her girls, Gabby and Olivia, joined me and then I picked up Addie and we went out for a girls only lunch.

I'm going to miss Lisa so much.  She is one of the nicest people I've ever met.  I don't know what I would have done these past two years without her!  These pics are a little blurry but I don't really have a lot of me with Lisa so I'm posting them anyways.

Tough Day at the Field

I LOVE to watch the boys play baseball.  This year they are on the same team and Scott's the coach.  It's so great.  They are so cute in their uniforms and their eye black.  This day was pretty hot so the eye black ended up everywhere but I love it.

Scott is just in heaven.  He says if he could support our family by being a little league coach, that's what he would want to do.  I love watching Scott and the boys on the field and little Addie is such a trooper to get dragged along all the time.  She never complains, maybe it's because she always gets a team snack at the end of the game!

This has been a crazy season though.  We've had so much rain so lots of games have been cancelled and are being rescheduled.  Today I heard on the news that this month we've had rain on 22 days out of 27 - crazy!!

Addie's Outfit to the Park

Date Night

Scott and Addie went on a ‘Daddy Daughter’ date night at LifeTime.  Don’t know what she enjoyed more, the actual date, or being able to tell Parker and Owen that she got to go on a date with Dad and NOT them.  Scott was so cute and brought her flowers.  They had a blast, complete with heart-shaped pizzas, prom-style photos, dancing with a DJ (she requested ‘Dynamite’ and went crazy) and mingling with the Disney Princesses.  The night was capped off with face painting.  Addie, of course, picked the design with the most make-up and the artist commented that she seemed “unusually relaxed” for someone her age.  We’re in trouble….

Since Scott was out with Addie I wanted to take the boys on a date.  The choose Noodles for dinner and then Owen had a birthday party so we dropped him off and headed over to "The Web" where Parks and I rode go-carts and played miniature golf.  The go-carts didn't go quite as fast as Parks would have liked and he told me "I thought you were a better driver than this."  It was really fun.  We double dated with Lisa and Ethan Huntsman.

Addie-isms

I love the cute way my kids mispronounce things.  I know it's probably not the best thing, but I hardly ever correct them.  I figure they'll learn one day and I'll just enjoy the cuteness until then.  These are some of my favorites from Addie right now.

Lalem for Lemonade
ogrit for yogurt
crocidator for crocidile or alligator
Litstip for lipstick (she says this often since she's OBSESSED with lipstick)
Scootboarder - scooter
Wipey Towel - paper towel or toilet paper

FHE

We have a few favorite FHE games (probably the fave being Boulah Boulah - which is what Scott says his family played at pretty much every FHE - it's just the getting hotter/colder game) but our favorite game du jour is Pickle.  Since we don't have a ton of stuff in our basement there's lots of room to run.  We've pushed the couch to the wall and the kids love to play pickle with us.  Of course, Parker has to dress appropriately by putting his baseball pants on since he's going to be sliding.  Last night everyone (including Addie) had to get their baseball pants on.  Pretty cute.

 This is Scott's "action" shot of them sliding into the pillow base - doesn't look staged at all does it???
