Oh, August

August has always been a very busy month for us and this year is certainly no exception. As I mentioned before this month is full of birthdays, including, Auria's best friend Talon's FIRST birthday! His birthday/party was yesterday and we were lucky enough to celebrate with him and his family.
At first, it seemed just like any other play date together...

Then we got Auria suited up in her newest swimsuit...



Auria tested out the water first...





Then the kiddos got to splash around together...



And splash, and splash...




When the clouds came back in Auria sat on her daddy's lap and enjoyed watching the bigger kids on the slip 'n' slide...

The birthday boy fell asleep and after waiting a while his mom and dad decided to wake him up for birthday cake and presents....



Mr. Talon didn't have as much fun digging into his cake as everyone had expected. He actually ended up crying when they shoved his hands in the gooey frosting. He also showed very little interest in opening his presents, despite his mommy's best efforts to get him involved. [*Note to self: Do the birthday song BEFORE nap time!]Anyhoo, all in all it was a fun time and it was special to get to be a part of Talon Fisher's big day :)


The day before that, Auria spent a few hours at her Oma's while Josh & I went to a different birthday party.
We were helping my sister-in-law celebrate her 25th birthday! Her boyfriend had a party at his house and he rented a huge blow up water slide. I'm pretty sure this is a slide for kids because when anyone over 100lbs went down it looked like they might fly off the end and land on the fence, haha! Once my husband tried it out and survived without injury I got brave and went down too. It was definitely a little scary to look at but it ended up being a lot of fun! I'm thinking I may need to keep something like this in mind for Josh's 30th that will be coming up in a few years. I can't think too much about that though, I have a more important birthday coming up in just 10 weeks! AH, I can't believe it!!!

Well, the last thing I'll report now is that Auria's gotten in one top tooth and the second one is on it's way! This means there is drool everywhere and she is chewing on anything she can get her little hands on...


Until our next adventure... :)
