Beach baby

Yesterday I was feeling rather ambitious. I am so incredibly stir crazy and had to get out of the house. Another day of staying at home with zillions of neighbor kids coming over just wasn't happening.
I decided to take the kids over to Rigby Lake by myself.

The goal was to be at the lake around 10:30 or 11:00. Yeah, that didn't happen. We got there around 12:30. 4 kids is kind of rocking my world I have to say.☺

Nate bought me this great umbrella that goes all the way to the ground. It blocks the wind and gives a lot of privacy so we brought it along. We hauled all of the gear over and I was hoping we would last at least a couple of hours. Anna and the boys were all doing so great though that we ended up playing for a good 5.5 hours! Felt a little more like my old self. And it was heavenly.











I thought I was a bit crazy taking a 3 week old over to the lake but to my surprise there was a 4 week old next to us and a 5 week old behind us. SEE....I am not the only CRAZY person out there!☺

Today my goal is to get caught up on laundry and try to get this house cleaned. Luckily I am getting some help downstairs with my "Harry Potter Movie Marathon" idea. Hehe.

Nice job, Mom! You are a total rockstar & even a newborn is not stopping you, I love it! Great job on the movie idea, although I'd be watching too and not get anything down. (I think maybe a 10 year old boy lives inside me? Cannot explain the Harry obsession otherwise)

So I've randomly linked over a few times from my friend Kelsey Jones's blog and have been excited for your baby girl after so many boys. My sweet little girl was born just a couple weeks after Kye. Your little Anna is adorable and I LOVE her headbands! So cute. Anyway... just wondering where you got your big umbrella you posted about. We've been searching for one -- heard they were at Costco but can't find one so just thought I'd ask. If you wouldn't mind you can comment on my blog or email me. Thanks! Hope this isn't too weird.
