Clearing out my camera

 
Kendall got to experience the pool with the Bardsley fam. Just look at her determination here! Swim Kendall, swim!

Chillin' with her Aunts Leslie and Aubrey and her cousin Eden:)
She even warmed up to her uncle Brett in the end!
 She liked the pool so much that when it was time to go (and I had already changed her into dry clothes) she decided she wanted to go for one last swim and walked right off the edge and into the pool! Oh my goodness, it scared me to death. Luckily, her Aunt Ashley was a few feet away and pulled her up out of the water. But crazy Kendall cried more about having to leave to go home than her near-death experience. I'm going to have to put that child in a life vest whenever she is even near water...just in case she decides to try that again!


We found out that our back deck had some structural issues. Thankfully, Matt's family decided to stay in town a bit longer than expected and helped us fix it! One big trip to Home Depot and a few hours of measuring and pounding later, it was fixed:)

Kendall is inspecting all the work.
 
Kendall was playing a little too quietly, so mama got suspicious and this what I found! Kendall found the baby powder and "decorated" our bathroom. (FYI, that's an otter pop she's eating)

 
Cole loves his swing!
 
We decided to lay some bark and plant some perenials around the house to spruce it up a bit. Here are some "before" and "afters".

 I didn't take a before pic but here's what it looks like after. Cool, huh?
 
Here's my crazy Kendall:)
 Here's the face she gives when you ask her to smile. (Notice her tiger with a pacifier and blankie around it!)
 Now she's taking care of her doll Cee cee.
 
And finally, we went out for a relaxing picnic in the park. Matt sure does love his little boy!

The End.
