We tried to do a lot of stuff our last week of summer and had a lot of fun!
Monday
We were supposed to meet some friends at a nearby mall to go walking & strolling but our friends ended up getting sick so they ended up having to cancel. We still went because it was too hot to walk outside! Like feels like 100 degrees by 9am! So the girls and I went and did a few loops around the mall. While we were walking we ducked in several shoe stores to look for flower girl shoes but didn't have any luck.
Aren't their dresses adorable?!
After the mall we went home, had lunch, and I did some things around the house while the girls napped! A pretty uneventful day!
They love to be puppies on Snapchat
Will climb shelves for books
Tuesday
I was having a little bit of cabin fever and was soooo tired of being in the house so I convinced another friend to meet us at a different mall to go walking! We went and walked for awhile before having lunch together. We also checked out some more shoe stores and still didn't find dress shoes in the right size so I ended up ordering them online. After the mall we went home for naps!
Noelle decided to get herself stuck in the seat of her car. This is when she thought it wasn't funny anymore.
Wednesday
We tried out a trampoline park today! I had never been to one but have always wanted to try one out. If you haven't heard of one before it's basically a big warehouse that the floor and walls are made out of trampolines! They had a dodgeball court and a ninja warrior course too. The park had morning hours for little kids so we met up with a friend and her daughter there and jumped for at least an hour! It only took the girls a few minutes to figure out how to walk on the trampolines and while they didn't actually jump, they would bounce themselves (feet didn't leave the floor) and run across the trampolines. I would also lay them down and bounce them up and down which they loved!
Thursday
Thursday was kind of a crazy day. We first met one of my mommy friends and her two kids at a splash pad nearby. It was so cute! The perfect size for kids. I'm kinda bummed that I just learned about it the last week of school but I'm already planning on buying a membership next year! The girls were a bit fussy so they didn't play as much as I thought they would but they liked playing in the water that sprayed out of the ground.
After that I took them to my friend's house to nap because I had to run to a quick appointment. After they napped, they played with my friend's daughter and we took them to the park for awhile. Then it was time to meet up with my old first grade team for dinner! I say old because one of my teammates moved schools and another quit so we have a new team this year! We ate at a really yummy Italian restaurant and even though we were there quite awhile the girls did sooooo good! They didn't really fuss until the very end.
I'm going to miss this team!
Friday
I didn't plan anything for us to do on Friday because the girls had their 18 month doctor appointment and I wasn't sure what shots they would be getting. At 18 months Natalie weighs 23.7lbs and is 31.5" tall and Noelle weights 26.6lbs and is 31" tall. I'm not sure if I buy that Natalie is taller since they look the same to me and it's hard to measure a squirming baby! They only got one shot and a finger prick to check iron levels and they did great! We spent the rest of the day at home playing and reading books!
Noelle did learn how to climb up on the end table! This is what I saw when I turned around. She was so proud of herself! And we rearranged the family room.
The girls also got their 18 month pictures done this past weekend. I've already seen some sneak peeks and I can't wait to see the rest and share them with you! Have a great week!
Isn't the splash pad so great?! We were supposed to go with Rachel and the kiddos before what-is-my-life happened. Selah loves the kiddie pool with the little fountains too. :)
