play date

skylar has had such a busy schedule this week! she is juggling time between friends, home, and sleepovers at grancy and grandpas house. and now we have a stellar babysitter and will be taking advantage of her more often! skylar spent the night last night with grancy and grandpa. i had to pick her up promptly in the morning because we were hosting a play date with some of her best buddies! here they are...

mackenzie kelley... 3 1/2, madelyn kelley... 5 weeks, skylar, 2 1/2... bailey biermann, 20 months... bianca, 7 months.

can you believe we got them all to sit still for that long? bailey was out in about 2.5 seconds but we got the picture! mackenzie wins bc she is sitting pretty and smiling perfectly in every photo i have. she has been trained well. ;-)

the girls had a ton of fun playing together and wore this momma out! i cannot speak for the other mommas, but it was nice to be able to visit with my friends stephani and whitney for a couple of hours. of course, skylar did not nap. last week, when she got out of bed, she said to me "mom, welcome to my NO nap!!!" groan!

anyway, after her NO NAP, grandpa picked her up to take her to see a movie with uncle charlie and megan. she apparently told grandpa that she was observant, and then defined the word for him. she is such a smartie pants! little lady does listen to books well, thats for sure. after the movie, she came back home and played in the backyard with grancy until dinner was ready for her immediate family, grancy, grandpa, and nana. after hosting dinner, she was off to get tucked in early by her daddy. what a long day!

tomorrow she will have a babysitter because my cousins band is playing at busch stadium before the cardinals game! go justin!!! russ and i will be there to partake in the event and figured it would be a ton more fun sans children. ;-)

oh, and look at these pictures!! who loves her sister???? bianca does!!!
