a perfect weekend

Friday was a beautiful day and a spontaneous neighborhood happy-hour was the perfect way to kick off the weekend. The girls had so much fun playing with all of the kids on our street. I love that there are so many kids so close in age. They loved playing together on the slide and both Kenzie & Lexi fell in love with Ayla's baby doll stroller.

On Saturday while the girls were napping I went out and bought them each a doll stroller. When they spotted them out on the back porch they were sooo excited! We immediately had to take their baby dolls for a walk.

On Saturday evening Audra, Kyle and Maddie came over for dinner. The girls love "babies" right now and they were very smitten with Maddie. Kenzie tried to share her goldfish with Maddie ... now that's love :) We had such a fun evening with the Schlegel's!

On Sunday morning we took a trip to the Farmer's Market and of course the girls insisted on bringing their baby dolls and strollers along. They are such good "mommies". Lexi is gentle with her baby and stroller, while Kenzie is a bit rough. She will pick up the whole stroller and correct her course, at times inadvertently losing baby in the process. They were quite the hit at the market :)

On Sunday evening we took a family walk up to Ault Park and met up with some friends at the playground. The girls have graduated to the "big kid" side of the playground ... wanting to keep up with their older friends. They went down the tunnel slide for the first time on their own... they seem to have no fear!

I am so happy that the girls are finally feeling better and that we were able to have such a wonderful weekend together as a family. Life is good.
