We had a great 4th of July weekend (despite Caydin HATING fireworks!) Sunday Monday was spent helping my brother and SIL move into their house. I didn't do much helping though! :)
Sunday afternoon, we headed to the grocery store, then Rob, Caydin and I worked on weeds in the backyard. Everyone came over for dinner and Caydin had a really fun time since he had everyone's attention! He was such a little show-off! Especially on his Spiderman bike - he rode that thing with his feet up on the seat and an "Uncle Josh" grin on his face around in circles while we were eating!
We got some simple sparklers, smoke ball things, and the little poppers that you throw on the ground thinking that if we kept the fireworks simple, Caydin might enjoy them. YEAH, NOT SO MUCH! He likes looking at them but hates, hates, hates the banging and booming. He hid on my mom's lap or inside the house the enough time that the guys played with them!
On Monday, we planned on some having some of our favorite people over for lunch. We found out what gender our 2nd baby is about a week before and were excited to share it with everyone. Mom and I worked on a 4th of July cake. My mom was able to get the color representing baby in the center and I added the strawberries/blueberries on top to go with our 4th of July theme! All of our little ones were dressed so cute in their 4th of July outfits that we had to get a picture! We left the porch door open and a really pretty butterfly flew in. Sadly, we couldn't get the little guy to fly out! (I should probably go check to see if he is still out there!) After a long nap, we headed to Grandma/Grandpa's for a swim. We grilled chicken for dinner and ate the leftovers from lunch! We were able to get a bunch of great pictures of the family (but I'll post those in another post!)
