Water Bug!

We just can't seem to get enough of the baby pool!  If she could sleep in the water I bet she would do it!  Whether it's the pool, the hose, the bath, the kitchen sink, or the bathroom sink...water, water, water is all we need to entertain ourselves.  Where does this love of water come from?  I'm just glad she has it, because her mama loves the water too.  We are going to have a fun summer!

Chinese Culture & Arts

Saturday afternoon was the Annual Student Recital for the Chinese Cultural & Arts Institute in Harrisburg.  This was our first time attending and our friends, Lisa and Dean, had 2 children (Emily and Ethan) performing in the show.  While Cadie napped through much of the first half, she was a captive audience for the second half, clapping and moving her little self to the music and movement of the traditional chinese dances.  After the show, we joined several other families for a chinese meal at a local restaurant, where Cadie finally let Emily hold her!  We had a wonderful time. Thank you Lisa and Dean for including in such a nice event.

Cadie and I headed down to Maryland's Eastern Shore with my parents for my nephew's 8th birthday!  This was Cadie's first overnight stay from home.  Jackson was kind enough to bunk with his mom and dad, so Cadie and could sleep in his bed.  Jack's party was on Sunday afternoon, and the sun came out just in time for the kids to have a water battle.  Cadie promptly found a puddle while the other kids took a break to eat, and had a great time dunking herself in the dirty water and running through the hose!  The bottom picture is the scene at 4 pm as we left to return home- this was only 10 minutes in the car!  We had a great weekend at my sister's and can't wait to visit again.  Below is a picture of Jackson giving Cadie a ride in his truck- she wasn't so sure about this!  Happy Birthday Jack.  Love KIKI
