Summer Time Fun

Don't you just love the summer? I love the play dates, the water, throwing the kids in he backyard to play and eating messy foods outside!
Here Paige came over to play for a couple of hours. Since the girls love to play dress-up, Paige brought her own dress!
Hailey & Harris loved the push up pops in the sprinklers the other day, so I bought them some Popsicles. Here is Hailey with her first one. (Harris threw a fit and didn't get one... so sad for him!) Now if they just didn't turn their mouth and teeth different colors!
Harris did get to come out and play in the sprinklers!
Hailey loves Hanna Montana! Especially since her latest couple of songs have come out, Hoedown Throwdown and Ice Cream Freeze. She loves to sing these songs when ever she hears them. The other day in the grocery store, Hailey saw this cereal and went crazy for it. After looking at the nutritional part, I went ahead and got it for her. It's her favorite cereal now! And of course the cereal is pink and purple!
Last year I bought the kids a medium size pool and they loved it. I did too, it was big enough I could get in with them. But it was so big and they get so much grass and dirt in it. I would have so much trouble getting it emptied out and it took awhile to refill. This year I bought a small one and I can dump it every night and clean it out. Yesterday they played outside in it for 2.5 hours before nap and then another 1.5 hours after nap!
Harris is having so much fun playing outside. He is getting so brown! And Hailey is such a beautiful and sweet princess! She loves to pose for me!
Here the kids are finishing up playing in the pool. Since they were covered in grass, I stripped them down and hosed them off before carrying them in to the tub. But I just love their cute lil' nakie bobos! I had to get this picture! They love being naked and were laughing hysterically!

#1. Give credit where credit is due. If you saw a post, meme, idea, etc. that you love and want to recreate on your blog - go ahead. Just be sure to give link love to the person you blogjacked it from.
#2. Do not attack people with negative anonymous comments. If you're going to disagree with someone OWN UP TO IT BY LINKING YOUR NAME otherwise don't comment at all. Leaving negative comments anonymously is a cowardly thing to do. Obviously, you're not going to agree with every post you read by every blogger - but allow others their opinion. It's their blog and they can post what they want to. The purpose of comments in general are to continue the conversation, give encouragement, or thank the person for their hyperlink or thoughts.
#3. Capitalize, punctuate, and start new paragraphs. It's difficult to read blogs that are a single run on sentence. FYI: ALL CAPS IS LIKE SHOUTING.
#4. Don’t blog about something that will get you fired, or cause you to lose a relationship. Unless, of course, you’re fine with losing said job or relationship.
#5.Don’t be long winded. At least too often. There are times when it’s alright to expound a bit. But let that be the exception, not the rule.
#6. Each blog you visit is the Internet "home" of someone. You wouldn't dare walk into a home and run your mouth at the host. It's inappropriate to do on blogs as well. It's just ugly and you end up looking stupid. Don't do it. It's immature.
#7. When I'm considering posting I ask "Is what I'm about to say going to add value to the conversation?" My "opinion" sometimes means NOTHING to the core of the author's post. Therefore I keep my golden brain to myself no matter how great I think I may be at the time.
#8. Do respond to people that comment on your blog. It lets them know you are interested in their opinions and encourages repeat visits.
#9. Do think twice or thrice before you delete inappropriate comments from your blog. Some of your best conversation will come from controversy.
#10. Try to avoid comparing your life with other people's lives.
#11. Introduce yourself when you are commenting for the first time.
#12. If you read a lot of blogs, allow yourself to feel blogligated to no one.
