Packed Weekend!

This weekend was a scorcher and our schedules were packed. On Saturday, we went swimming at The Hills Athletic Club in the Oakland Hills. My cousin and her family are members and my cousin ZR spends a lot of time there because she is on the swim team. The club is on top of Mt. Olympus in the Montclair district in Oakland. What a beautiful location! Baby C thought the water was a bit cold at the beginning, but she quickly warmed up and had a great time "swimming" with Daddy J.

In the late afternoon, we attended a surprise 40th birthday party for our friend VB. We missed the "surprise" part because the kiddies had to nap, but still got there in time for some food, cake, and toddler play. The birthday girl loves polka dots, so Baby B wore this special outfit just for her! You like her bow? This was the first time we put one on her...her hair is getting so long! Kinda sad the faux-hawk is no more...=P


On Sunday, we went to an impromptu 3rd birthday party for TM. His birthday is actually next week, but his mom, my friend SM went into preterm labor like 2 weeks ago (she is fine now, baby is still in the oven), and they did not want TM to miss a birthday party IF the baby decided to come early. The party was at Super Franks and it was great fun! Here is a picture of Baby C and TM playing toddler air hockey. It's so cute watching them play like KIDS...not babies anymore! =)

Then in the evening, we went to Lowes to finalize the details of a window shades order. We are ordering new shades for all the bedrooms. The girls' rooms will get new blackout cellular shades to help with heating/cooling/light. The master bedroom will get some new top down, bottom up cellular shades so we can get more light in the room while maintaining privacy.

We ended the evening/weekend at Little Mad Fish and Blush Yogurt...YUMS!
