Fun weekend

We had a lovely weekend...spent tons of time with the kids, got to go out on a date on Saturday night (our first meal together alone since the kids came home and I didn't even cry...thanks Dave & Doreen!!), took the kids swimming. Lots of fun! Here are some photos from the past few days.

This is what happens if we don't push all the playroom chairs under the table very well!



Catalina is crazy about both of our dogs. She always says, "Mama, look at Murphy. He's sooooo sweet and cuddly and white!" But, Murphy kind of does his own thing and doesn't really stand for Catalina climbing all over him. He's more of a mama's boy (like Gus). Doc, though, is practically Catalina's jungle gym. They are buddies and are together all the time. The thought of Catalina seeing what Louie and I saw last Friday morning (seizure) makes me feel sick.




One of Louie's doctors gave Catalina a gift card to Build A Bear, so we went there on Saturday. I guess I should have known better than to go on a weekend. It was worse than going to Chuck E. Cheese on a Friday night. So crowded, with kids running around screaming that they needed this cell phone or pager or stroller for their bear. Not really my scene, and it wasn't really Catalina's either...she seemed stressed by all the decisions she had to make. In the end, she got a bear, whom she named Kitty Cat, that she really, really loves!



Gussy went into the pool for the first time this weekend! He thought the water was really amusing...he kicked it and smacked it with his hands and laughed when I spinned him around in it! As usual, Catalina had a great time, too.
