Horse Riding Lesson #1

Caitlin LOVES horses and wants to be a cowgirl (so she says).  So we started her with horse riding lessons.  Her first lesson she learned how to walk around the horse without getting kicked, how to brush it, clean its feet, saddle it up herself, and how to walk the horse and steer.   She was in heaven!

Brushing the horse

Cleaning his feet

Putting the saddle on

Practicing steering

 

Hosing him down

Horse treats

Learning to steer -

I think she was afraid of pulling too hard on the reins and hurting the horse.

Stacation Day 5

• Church
• Watched Spy Kids
• Played together
• Ate popcorn

Alaina loves this zoo app on the iphone.  It has all these pictures of animals and sounds that they make.



Caitlin has been teaching her animal sounds.  I don't think she really knows what sound goes with what animal but it's cute she's trying.  My favorite, though, is the impromptu dance breakout around the 45 second mark.  It was all good until she got the booty bump from Caitlin.

 

Stacation Day 4

• Played in the playroom 
• Pizza for lunch 
• Baby shower 
• Bought some new toys 
• Fixed computer problems - YAY

Fun in the car!

It is 100 degrees outside and both my girls want to do this! 

So most of the time, their windows are down and I have the A/C blasting on me!

Stacation Day 3

• Pretended I had no computer problems to deal with 
• Played in playroom
• Danced
• Lunch with friends
• Cool springs mall for build a bear
• Walked the mall
• Ice cream at chik fil a
• Went swimming at pool

Caitlin REALLY wanted the Smurfette that Build A Bear was advertising.  When we got there, they were all sold out and didn't expect any until NOVEMBER.  So she decided on a kitten instead.

Warming her heart to go inside her kitten.
