Happy Father's Day!!!

Maci continues to enjoy her summertime curriculum at school which included a traveling zoo of reptiles and of course Friday water time!  I on the other hand enjoyed a busy week of compensation calibration meetings but alas the process is "mostly" done for yet another year :)  Clint was busy working on his post Africa report the majority of the week.  All in all, a pretty good week on all fronts!

Traveling Zoo!

Friday - It was such a gorgeous day and the rain would be rolling in at night so I headed out of work a little early to catch Verizon before the 5p Friday rush and crowds.  I was finally due up for a new phone and was quite excited to get my iPhone 6.  While I was at Verizon, Clint was at Maci's school for Daddy Day snack time (Popsicles!)  Maci was quite excited to have daddy at her school and to give him her gift - a picture frame with her in it holding a sign saying "I love you to pieces" and the photo frame had puzzle pieces all over it - very cute!  Much better than my school made homemade body scrub which HURTS from mother's day ;-)

Saturday - The day started off pretty icky with a lot of rain so we ran errands and took a nice long nap together.  Clint and I were supposed to have date night but unfortunately our sitter got sick which worked out in the end since Maci was put to bed with a 130 temp :(  Poor kid!!  Before we realized she was running a temp, we headed to Rojo at the West End for dinner and Maci was such a good girl at dinner.  Unfortunately when we got home we realized she was burning up and was very sad about it :(  She took some Tylenol like a champ and slept in a diaper.  After she was down, Clint and I again binge watched some Orange is the New Black.

Sunday - Yay Maci woke up feeling great and no temp!  Clint went for a run on his Father's Day morning and we got our cards all ready.  We went to a nice brunch together at Granite City and then picked up Daddy's annual pictures from Walgreen's for his frame at work.

Yep that about sums up the MANY faces of Maci

We attempted to come home for a nap and some household to dos but Miss M was not having a nap after all the sleep she got the day prior.  So we headed to the pool around 2p for a fun afternoon in the sun.  Fortunately Maci's random water fear only lasted about 1 hour of our 2+ hour trip.  Once we backed off and just let her decide when she was ready to go deeper etc, next thing we knew she was wanting to jump in to me, went down the big slide 3 times with daddy and finally went down the whale slide alone.  Of course we left with tears because now she LOVED swimming but fortunately that was short lived since we let her get some candy on the way out.

Clint and I are now itching from a little too much sun and Maci somehow just managed a 2nd wind after we swore she was down for the night at 545p.  We will spend the rest of our evening enjoying what remains of a great Father's Day weekend and mentality preparing our travel needs for the trip to the Sinnard Family Reunion in IN this coming weekend :)

Lots of Love,
C, K & M
