Playdate and Pics

Yesterday Jill and Sam came over to spend the afternoon with us. Sammy and Emma play so well together and I always enjoy Jill's company.

Sam is a gentleman and skimmed the pool for Emma

Sam the Man

Now that I have a boy I am a little concerned. Above is the best picture I could get of Sam. That boy is FAST! I have a pretty quick camera but it couldn't even catch him. Most of the pics I got looked like this:

Is that how boys are? No wonder Jill is so tiny!

Hide-n-seek

Emma gave Jill and I a huge scare in the afternoon. We were hanging out by the pool since it was so nice. Sam and Emma were walking around the pool deck while I held Ethan and chatted with Jill. Then we heard a splash. Jill took Ethan and I dove into the pool. Emma had fallen in across the pool and I got to her quickly. It was still scary that she was in the water alone. She wanted to get out of the pool and out of her bathing suit right away. I think they were trying to reach a raft in the water. After relaxing on the couch for a while she was better. I am not sure that I am yet though.

Last night when I was tucking her into bed she said to me, "Mommy, I was brave today." She was brave she kept kicking her feet in that water until I got to her. She was keeping her face out of the water. What a tough little lady.

Now for the Ethan boy. I really can't get over how grown up he is to me. Do the second ones grow faster?

I am not sure what the monkey said but it must have been pretty intense.
