Fun this past week!

This past week has been a fun one : ) Here are a few things we enjoyed!

On Monday night we used Chip and Kenzie's birthday club coupons for free meals from Red Robin and free Cold Stone Creamy and had a SUPER cheap family date night : )


Kenzie had fun dumping out all of the sugar/sweeteners all over the table.


Once again...she couldn't get enough of the lemon slices!


She was so excited to get a birthday balloon!!

The evenings have been a nice time to play outsidel...once the sun starts to go down the temperature cools down to a very pleasant temperature. Kenzie had a great time playing outside with her friend Kingston the other night. Ryken thought he was such a big kid when we let him ride the bike!





This could be dangerous.....

Now that the weather has been heating up during the day (mid 90's and even close to 100 already!!) we've been playing with water outside. We did this on Monday and Wednesday this week and the kids LOVED it!






On our second outside day, we were teased by a few small breezes. Chip has been dying to try out his new kite that he got as an early birthday present...so even though we really knew that there was no wind, we decided to go and run around with it a little bit. It was fun..and Chip got a great workout running around trying to get it to "fly".




Kenzie has been having fun doing some crafty things. We got her markers and scissors for her birthday. She loves to color and cut.



Although we have to keep a close eye on her.....unfortunately we've seen what can happen when we don't!!



If you look closely you can see where she cut out a chunk of her hair...


Kenzie and Ryken are getting to be good little playmates. He loves following her around, and most of the time she is happy to have him join in with whatever she is doing. .


He is also becoming quite the little daredevil. Here is where I found him tonight.....and he isn't even 9 months old yet. I have a feeling things are going to get pretty interesting in the next few months.....

Looks like fun! :) I haven't dared buy scissors for Svara yet... maybe in another few months! Looks like Ryken will be walking early, just like his big sis!!

Birthday clubs are the BEST! It's exciting to get coupons for free things in the mail or in your inbox, isn't it?

Those photos of your daughter covered in marker and "playing" with scissors look quite familiar. Our 2-year-old has been found looking like that on quite a few occasions. ;)
