Brooklyn waiting for a soccer game to start - she's on the far left

My friend Kayla and I went up to the Anthem outlets and shopped.  We got pretzels and let the kids run in the splash pad after.

Sunday night dinner with friends - all my single at the moment mom friends got together and did a Cafe Rio potluck.  It was deelish!  We met at Midwestern and the kids had a blast playing in the sprinklers after dinner.  They were all soaked by the end.

We had another ultrasound to confirm we are having another GIRL!!  We are very excited and can't wait to see what this little sister will look like.  I bought pink donuts for the kids and the above picture is how we announced it.

My friend Kayla put on a princess party for her daughter Lexi. Brooklyn had so much fun dressing up in her Elsa costume and doing all kinds of fun things.

A group of us girls went and saw Wicked!  I've seen it once before with Jeannette and loved it just as much the second time.  It was so fun to get a babysitter and have a long night out with these ladies.  I didn't want the night to end.

Brooklyn and Jake had their first preschool field trip to the fire station.  I found a sitter for Remmy and tagged along.  It was fun and the kids learned a lot.  Any time one of them fusses about putting their seat belt on, Jake says "but the fireman said we have to buckle up EVERY time."

Hilarious and dramatic at the same time.  All the kids got to sit in the driver seat.  Brooklyn was the first one up and immediately the attention all went to her.  She clearly did NOT like that.
