Playing catch up (photo dump)

Last week was more of the same for us except Thursday! Thursday we got to meet Jordan King! Samantha and Scott's new baby! I went to the hospital after work and Steve picked up the girls and met me there! OMG, you forget how little they are!!! We hung out there for about an hour and left when there were too many people there and it was almost time for him to be fed! Seriously so cute! So happy for them and Boston will be a great big brother! We needed more boys in this family!
 
Holly was watching Boston Friday night and Presley felt a little left out and said she wanted to also. She has never wanted to spend the night anywhere except Grandma's! So we packed her up and dropped her off at Holly's after work (fully planning on picking her up later when she decided she really didn't want to spend the night there!) and then the three of us went out on a dinner date to Fletcher's in Ankeny. (It was good and we liked it and will go back!)
It was their 100 day of preschool and she wanted to wear her hat to dinner! :)

Presley stayed all night at Holly's! Shocking to us but proud of her for doing it! So Saturday morning we had craft day at my Aunt Ann's house and Holly just brought her there! It was nice seeing everyone and letting the kids do some crafts and watching others and their creativity take over.
 My aunt Ann, uncle Leslie, cousin Jenny and her daughter Grace doing string art, which is super cool!
We got home about 1:30 b/c Presley had a birthday party next door, then we had more one on one time with Miss Piper and she wanted to play Memory (she kicks our butts 90% of the time) and clean/organize! She organized the shoes and picked up the family room.
Then she washed the patio doors and then went to her room and picked it up and made her bed! Just b/c she wanted too! Love this girl!
 Then she wanted to play catch in her dress up heels, of course!

Saturday night we just hung out at home, and then after they went to bed I went out with neighbor Sarah for some girl time (since the boys had gone out the night before!) It was nice to sit and chat with no kids since we don't get to do that very often!
 
Sunday morning we got up and ready and headed to Bass Pro Shop for our neighbor Collins bowling birthday party! It was fun and the kids really enjoyed it!

 Other neighbor girls, Bella, Presley, Piper and Gianna...nice smile Piper.
 So then Piper wanted to look cute like Gianna

 After the party we walked around Bass Pro, dreamed about boats that we would never own.


 Then we headed to Samantha and Scotts for the Packer game......Baby Jordan
 Piper wanted to hold him until he started crying.
 Even Steve got in on the baby-holding action!
 She loves him and wants to touch and kiss him....but she doesn't want pictures of her doing it!

The Packer game was shitty but we tried to see the positive considering 6 weeks ago we never thought they would've made it this far. Oh well, we had good family time this season so we enjoyed it!
