Swimmin With Friends.

We have been very busy over here.  Blogging has definitely been harder since I now have two kids.  Also, Mark was in Chicago for 4 days for a wedding.  Thank God for Grandma, Grandpa, Nana, and Papa or I am not sure I would have made it!

Since Mark was gone we decided to just keep busy.  Thursday was our first day without Daddy so Grandma came over early and helped me get the kids all ready and packed up and we headed to our local park to meet some friends. 

Claire and Chase loved running in and out of the water.  They had a blast together!  

Oliver had a blast at the beach too.  It was super hot so he was happy as can be when we just laid him on the towel naked.  

Mommy and Claire enjoyed hanging out with Kristy and Chase.  

And what would a trip to our local park be without Aunt Jessica and Giada.  Claire and Giada loved running around in the spray park.

After the park, we headed home and took a nap.  Yep, that's right A NAP...ALL OF US!!!  Claire and Oliver both napped at the same time.  So obviously I curled up on the couch and took a GREAT nap.  It was awesome.  After our naps we headed over to Grandma's for dinner.  Claire had a blast playing in her little pool.  

When Claire was done in her little pool she talked Grandma into taking her into the hot tub.  She loved it in there.  Claire really loves water.  She was making the lifeguards a little nervous at the beach because she just jumps in the water and she will stay under there for a while.  She is a fish :)

As for Oliver, he has been just getting up once in the night to eat.  He has been going down to sleep around 11 and then getting up to eat at around 3 eating and then going back to sleep.  Then he gets up around 6:30 and eats again and then sleeps until 9.  Although I did get lucky and he slept through the night on Saturday night!!  He skipped the 3 o'clock feeding!  Hopefully he will do that again soon!  Also, Oliver is starting to really look around.  He will turn to see you when he hears your voice and he is so alert.  He is starting to hold his head up more and more on his own.  We are getting a lot of half smiles too.  I can't believe that is five weeks old already!
