Marlee Turns 3

Marlee turned 3 on August 18, 2009. Where does the time go? We kicked off the birthday week making cupcakes. Had dinner with friends at Salsaritas on Monday. Had snacks at daycare and cake and friends on her birthday night. She was so excited to be three. The day after her birthday on the way to daycare she asked, "Mommy, am I still 3?" - so cute. She got clothes, play dough, movies, and lots of art stuff. Happy Birthday baby!

Carowinds 2009

For some reason I decided that we needed to have one more little trip before school started back and of course the weather ended up being 90+ degrees, oh well. Before we melted away, we had a good time. Marlee I think had the best time, there were plenty of things for her to ride and Dora, Diego, Blues Clues, and several other characters were at the Meet and Greet Station. Dora of course was in top demand. She had to go visit Dora several times as well as Diego. Marlee rode the kids swings and yelled over to me "this is not too bad:-)" what I had told her to encourage her to ride. McKena got to ride a few bigger roller coasters than she had ever ridden in the past. Next year will go when the weather is a bit cooler.

Big Bang Boom!

McKena attended a week of camp at the Children's Museum in downtown Greensboro. She had a good time and on the last day they got to perform a show. Her group was called "The Cowgirls" hence the cowgirl attire you see in the picture. Of course the song they picked was by Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus - Hoe Down Throw Down. Very cute:-)

Waterplay!

At daycare every few weeks they get to do waterplay. It's so easy to get Marlee to go to school in the mornings when you say it's waterplay day. She was ready to go with her Dora bookbag full of her towels and clothes, her sandals, and new summer hair cut. Yeah for waterplay!
