Weekend Fun - August 5-7

Friday 8/5

Friday night, Amelia had her last swim class of the year. I'll share some pics in another post. And then we went downtown briefly for First Friday.

Saturday 8/6

In the morning, we got up and got ready - we were taking Amelia to a Sibling Class, so she could learn the basics of being a big sister!

She was pretty excited:


Heading into the hospital... not where I'll be delivering (they were all booked up for this class):


Ready for class to start!


First, we learned about all the kids and future siblings that were in the room, and then watched a video.

Next, the kids sat together with their babies, and learned some basics about baby care and safety:


Then, it was time to learn how to swaddle:



Giving her baby a hug:


Wrapping the baby again:


Look at the way she looks at a fake baby! Makes me excited to see her face with her little brother! :)



The big girl was rewarded with lunch out -- chocolate chip pancakes!!


It was time to head back home for a nap.

Later, we decided to head back out to a local festival - Amelia wanted to wear her Angels hat:



Like Daddy:


She rode a couple of rides - really liking this helicopter ride:


When you pull the bar back, it goes up higher (this is on her way up):


It was a corn festival, so some yummy corn was on the menu of course!


And her favorite... a "big blue yum yum yum" (blue slushie):


Sunday 8/7

All dressed up for church:


After church it was nap time.

Later, she decided that she wanted to play with her big bin of blocks:



Concentrating very hard.... (check out her little tongue out)


It was a great weekend.... time as a family and a few little things to get ready for the baby!
