The Perfect Summer Day... in January!

Today was absolutely the best summer day! And the great thing about it? It's in January! While other people are suffering through horrible cold, nasty weather, we get to enjoy weather in the 80s! What made it such a great day? Well...

Makenna got up this morning and we had breakfast and played with her toys for a while. Then we headed to the library for Babytime. This is a fun time full of rhymes, songs, and books for babies. Then we headed home for a nap (mom finally got the kitchen and a bit of laundry done), lunch, and a little bit more playtime.

At about 1:00, Makenna and I headed out for our walk to the park. It was actually pretty warm out there! We stopped at the park to play on the swings (once again, Makenna gave the best pouty face when it was time to get out!) and to sit by the lake and watch the silly ducks.

Next we walked to Dad's school and met him by the reflecting pool. It was nice and relaxing there! We walked home and put Makenna down for a quick nap while mom ran to the store. When I got home, Makenna was already up (Austin said she didn't really even sleep at all). So we got dressed and headed to... the pool!


Makenna loved it when I walked around so she could kick her feet in the water!

Uh-oh! She's getting ready to splash mom!

Makenna had so much fun sitting on on the steps. She would walk around and splash water everywhere. She also liked standing on the second step and hitting the top step.


Mom and Makenna at the pool. Yes, I know, Mom looks about 8 months pregnant instead of 4... don't judge! : )

We had such a fun time at the pool! Austin came with us and took pictures and played for a little while, but he didn't get wet. Afterwards, we sat on the grass to dry off and played for a while. Now it's time to grill out for dinner. I love winter time!
