Squeezing in the last of summer

What a week! We were busy doing last minute things to get ready for preschool starting on the 17th, getting some birthday shopping for the little princess and a few other things thrown in to keep me hopping and from thinking too much. That means you'll have to settle for lots of pictures instead of an introspective ramble from the Momma.

Last weekend was our neighborhood's annual mini golf and BBQ. Neighbors create their own mini golf holes and put them in their driveway, or garage or yard and all of us wander around with putters and take scores. Last year we didn't make it golfing but crashed the BBQ. This year I didn't think we were going to make it either. Ali and I were a little out of character after Mark working just over two weeks of 12 hour days and then being home for just over a week. We were kinda out of sorts. I'm happy to say Ali and I made it to all the mini golf holes with KeeKee.

It's becoming a tradition to get a picture of Ali and KeeKee at the BBQ!

On Wednesday the Momma had a short meet and greet with a new doctor and Ali stayed with Ashley and her Mom for a few hours. All was good, it seems Ashley loves doing Alexiss's make up and Ali loves being pampered and attended to.

The next day we had a visit from Ali's friend Jack. Ali had to..err..use the facilities. I closed to door to give her some privacy and so the stink would kinda stay in the bathroom. But Jack had other plans. It was too quite so I went to see where Jack was. Seems he was keeping Ali company and Ali didn't mind at all. Kids are amazing! 


Today was a family BBQ hosted by Mark's work. We had a ball, inflatable jumpy house and slides, sno-cones, popcorn, cotton candy, a clown that did balloons and a dunk tank. Yes, Mark was voluntold to participate and be a dunkee..sorry no picture.

Excuse me, is that a butterfly on your cheek?

The crowned princess is starting to fizzle out a bit.
