First we had Open House for Gracie and that is where we picked Kierstin up at! Then we went to Chick-fil-a to eat and play for a while, since it is so hot. Then we all went grocery shopping, I bet everyone is jealous and wants to spend the night with us.Right?!? We were out of all the very important things like juice boxes, trash bags and toilet paper, so it wasn't much of a choice. They were all 4 on their best behavior at the grocery store and we were in and out of there in 30 minutes! Yeah, that's right! I was so proud of them and the only thing they asked for was a pack of silly straws that cost $1.
We got home and they unpacked Kierstin's suitcase and started playing with their American Girl Dolls. I started filling up our kiddie pool for them to swim in. They all picked out the perfect swim suit to wear for the day and got in the coldest pool ever, but it didn't seem to phase them. Then after a little swimming they decided it was more fun to squirt each other with the water hose and they did this for approximately 3 hours. They were having so much fun, there was lots of giggling and squealing too. When I asked what they wanted for dinner, Hayden said spaghetti and Kierstin said Ribs, which would have made Mark much happier except he has been getting home late and it would have been 10pm before they got to eat and trust me they don't want to eat any ribs that Mommy would cook...so Kierstin decided that she wanted spaghetti too. They were so involved playing outside that when dinner was done, they insisted on eating outside too. So they did and they all ate pretty good and then they were back to playing, but this time they wanted to go out in the yard. They played and played, jumping on the trampoline, playing on the airplane and when they decided they were getting tired they were very nasty and there was a storm coming, so they took really fast shower and got all cleaned up. Good thing we did too because we had a horrible storm that come through and it was lots of bad lightening. Kierstin and Gracie were scared and even Colton cried when the Thunder was too loud, but we all survived even though it knocked our Internet and phone out for the rest of the night.
Finally at about 10pm, I put a movie in for the girls and they calmed down for the night. However it was probably about 11pm before they were officially asleep but then they slept until 8am this morning! They have played all morning in the water hose and pool. They also make sure they take very good care of their American girl dolls, which are named Natalie, Mckenna, Summer and Sleeping baby! Gracie has pretty much kept up with them and only cried a few times from being left out of something. Colton has tried his best to aggravate them as much as possible!!!
Gracie, Sleeping Baby, Kierstin, Natalie, Hayden and McKenna going Night Night!
Sweet Girls! Love the way Hayden put her arms around Kierstin and Gracie.
