-THE SKINNERS-

4th of July Weekend!!

This weekend was a blast for our family. My sister went out of town so she invited us to "house sit" while she was gone. It was sooo nice to have a big house, "free" air conditioning, yummy food, a backyard with a nice big pool, and a park only steps outside of their backyard. Other things we enjoyed this week were:
.
Sneaking food from the fridge...

.
Spending time with Dad

.
Swimming EVERY DAY!
Dane loves his new orange tube. Everytime we ask him if he wants to go swimming he grabs his tube, runs to the front door and waits for us.
.
Learning new tricks...
Doesn't this face look so sweet??
It doesn't look so sweet anymore does it?!
Dane thought it would be a really fun idea to take his diaper off, throw it out of his crib, whiz out of the crib slats (I'm guessing he was aiming for the diaper but came up a little short), and quietly wait for me to come get him from his nap. By the time I got him all of his bedding was pee-soaked also. Let's just say this was a big laundry day for me!

.
We were invited to dinner at our friends' house where Dane was nice enough to give Jamie a horsey ride.

I am so glad I got these two on camera. Jamie would get on Dane's back and bounce up and down trying to get him to go. It was hilarious!!
I am glad that Jamie finally took revenge on Dane for all of the bullying he has done to her.

Awesome post. I can't believe he took his diaper off and was peeing over the ledge. That is hilarious!!! I was dying when I read that. Such a boy thing to do! :)

THe whizzing out of the crib is hilarious! Seriously, what a cool kid. I'm sure he was trying to aim for the diaper. How nice to have a big home with a pool and everything. Looked like alot of fun!

I guess thats one really good thing about having a girl! But I'm sure you just have to look at him and see how cute he is and then you forget everything bad he does!
