Happy Father's Day!

I want to wish Peter, Gumbo, Grandpa, and all of the other poppas in our lives a Happy Father's Day!!!

Luckily Sadie only has a cold and it's slowly, but surely getting better. On Friday we went on a walk with Attie, Lawson, Katie, and Lola. It was HOT!!! Attie and Lawson hung out with us all day and we got things done that we had been meaning to get done during Attie's maternity leave--we made reservations for a trip to the beach and we made reservations for a Mom and sissy trip to NYC in September. I'm so excited about both trips! Attie goes back to work tomorrow. We're going to miss spending almost every day with Attie and Lawson, but I know we will still spend lots of times with them. On Friday night Peter picked up August Moon and we watched more episdoes from the first season of 'How I Met Your Mother.' On Saturday morning we went to the Farmer's Market again and to the PJ's downtown. Betsy was fascinated by the birds eating up her blueberry muffin crumbs. Next we headed to City Park for B to ride the carousel. When we arrived both of the girls were crashed. P and I took out the stroller and soon it started pouring so we quickly got back in the car--luckily both girls stayed asleep. We drove around City Park to see how much of it has been restored. It's looking really good. In the afternoon the girls and I went to Marme's for lemonade and cookies. We had so much fun. Last night Peter roasted the baby eggplant we bought at the Farmer's Market. I gave Betsy some eggplant over brown rice and she looked at it on her spoon and said "Yummy in my mouth please" before she ate it. Unfortunately she didn't think it was too yummy and she made a terrible face and let it fall out of her mouth and said "arrrrrghhhh!" She has been very talkative this weekend. She told me "Look, Mommy. I got da bears" and showed me two of her toy bears. She has lots to say all of the time.

This morning it was pouring so our plans to go to the Zoo were cancelled. We hung out at home then the girls and I took a nap before heading to Gumbo's for lunch. We got to see Jama, Pa, Taddy, Diane, Stevie, Calli, and Craig and of course the sissies, Lawson, and Beau. It was a nice day and Gumbo did a great job of making lunch for everyone!
