Picnic Playdate

We invited some girls over to have a picnic and playdate this noon. Although one ended up sick and another had to go out of town, we still had four little girls (and a baby brother!) that had a blast together! The girls at a picnic under the tree in the backyard while the Mommy's had some lunch and visited. The Mommy's were actually allowed quite a bit of time to chat as the girls pretty much entertained themselves with painting nails, doing makeovers and playing dressup! A fashion show followed as you can see. Note: Landon also joined in the fun after much disagreement with the girls initially. He looked just as good as they did (the pic is of his toes!), until Daddy came home early and found out! Claire went to art class with Blair and Ally, and Blair also lives in our neighborhood and goes to dance class with Claire.

In other news...

We went and saw the movie Wall-E Monday afternoon. It was pretty cute, although Landon fell asleep during the last half (guess he didn't enjoy it as much as Claire). This makes the news because last year at this time I tried to take Landon to the movies. He screamed (and I mean screamed) through the whole thing. I spent it in the lobby or outside, while Claire watched it with the neighbors we met there. We tried again last week at the $1 movie I mentioned earlier and he did great, so I think he has matured! We also had a playdate yesterday at a friend's house. They have a "real pool", at least that's what Claire was telling everyone she saw before we got there. It was a warm afternoon; perfect for swimming with friends!
