Summer is here!

Summer has finally arrived in Seattle and the girls couldn't be happier.  Kaylin loves the summer.  Even in the winter when it was sunny outside, she would ask if we could get her pool out and play in the back yard.  Since we live in Seattle, she equates the sun with the summer :-).  It took her awhile to figure out that it can be sunny outside and still be cold.


Nana and Pop Pop gave the girls this fun sprinkler.  Lauren especially loves it.  She kept saying, "Come on Kaylin!"  My favorite was when she said, "Come on Kaylin, let's get wet!"

Tonight we headed to Dick's for cheeseburgers and shakes and then hit up Cal Anderson Park across the street.  After playing on the playground for awhile we let the girls play in the fountain.  We weren't planning on them getting wet, but luckily we had a couple of towels in the trunk so they were able to dry off before driving home.



For those of you who know Kaylin well, please notice that she is wearing SHORTS.  You are not seeing things.  After about 2 years of wearing only dresses, with or without leggings, Kaylin is starting to wear regular pants. I view this as a small miracle.  I also think it makes her look so much older which makes me kind of sad.


We are all definitely happy that summer has arrived, even if it only stays for a week or two.

Love her shorts! Hopefully she'll keep it up. And I agree, it does make her look older.

So glad you guys are finally getting some warm weather, hopefully it lasts!

Yeah she looks so cute! I noticed her wearing those cute jeans the other day but forgot to mention it to you. She must be branching out into other styling options. :) It's looking good. I also love the picture on your other post of Lauren standing up on the karaoke stage. :)

Also, what's a girl got to do to get invited over for some sprinkler time?
