Garbage trucks, diggers, dump trucks...oh my!

One of my besties came to visit from NOLA and brought her 3 year old son! From the moment they got in the car I knew I was going to learn a lot about all things construction vehicles! At this point I just classify everything as a truck or bulldozer...boy am I wrong! Anyway...we had so much fun! Finley and Zane loved following Grant around it was pretty cute!

WE hit the park in the morning then cooled of with some yummy fro-yo and then played out back until we couldn't stand the heat!

Grant can climb!!!

Zane going down the hill when he wasn't supposed to!

Holding hands...awwwww!!

Again, trying to cool off with popsicles!

On Wednesday, we had a few friends over to play! What fun!

Then we headed to Zilker to ride the train and get sno balls!!!

What a great visit! We miss you already!

Yeehaw!

Finley was playing with her shoes today and wanted some rain boots that were too small. So I decided to pull out the hand-me-down cowboy boots from a neighbor and they were a hit! Here is my little fashionista in all her glory!

This girl loves her shoes!!!

Choo choo!

We were invited to a friends birthday party with a train! I thought...they love trains, they can't get enough of trains, so they will love to ride on the train...not so much!!

Riding very cautiously...

Oh well...they did enjoy watching from afar and got excited every time they saw the train and would exclaim "choo choo"!

They of course loved the snacks and CUPCAKE!!!

Here they are watching the train leave on its last train ride!

Wishful thinking...

Finley pulled out the warmest clothes in her closet the other day and put them on. I think she is wanting some relief from this heat too! Cooler weather please come!!

She did not keep it on very long...I think she realized she was hot!!!

The new playhouse

Grammy and Papa Tank got Finley and Zane an early birthday present (that momma had to put together)!!! With our backyard still a dirt pile, I was desperate for an outdoor space for them to play. So I sweated it out during a couple nap times and built their house. Daddy built the foundation and it is just perfect! They request "house, house" all throughout the day! Now we just need to figure out how to install some A/C!! Thank you Grammy and Papa Tank!!!!

F and Z just doing some gardening after some pool time!

Finley wanted Tank to go in the house so she kept following her and saying "Tank house, Tank house...." and did not understand why Tank wasn't listening!

And Zane was just blowing kisses! I just love this new trick of his!

When it was time to go inside for dinner Finley ran into the house...and protested.

Needless to say they love their new house and so does momma!
