First Summer Weekend


On Friday, Colby & Dawson left with Al for the coast. We were in charge of Dawson last weekend and since he had ballgames Friday night and Saturday in Brunswick, they all spent the night at Shellman to cut down on driving.


That left Aubree & me to do our thing.....Saturday, we went over to Tammy's to do some swimming or lack of....


AGAIN...she is scared of the water. Really, I thought Aubree would be more adjusted this year, but turns out I was wrong! I put her puddle jumper on and forced her to get in just to show her she would bobble on the water.....THAT did not go over well!!! :) Just picture trying to hold a cat in the water!! :) I had to remove her before we drew the neighbors....


After she got over the madness, she went back to playing on the step just like last year. I guess she'll get it in time......or be like her Grammy and still be terrified of water when she is a grandparent :) Aubree did at least let me hold her in the water to get wet and cool off from time to time. When I would reach for her, she would say, "Remember, I don't have on my float!" haha








When we came home that afternoon, Aubree and I kept Payton for a bit while Christi caught a movie. Aubree LOVES a baby more than any child I know....any baby!!!! My children are so different in that respect - Colby has never paid any mind to a baby...always shy around them and certainly wouldn't think of voluntarily touching one for fear of upsetting him/her. Aubree is ALL.OVER.THEM!!! With Payton, she wants to hold him constantly, feed him, shove a pappy in his mouth, strap rattles to his arm, etc. I spent as much time seeing about him as I did making sure she wasn't irritating him :) Without a doubt, she will be a loving mother one day......one far away day :)
