Silly Saturday!

Last Saturday was a fun day for us.  The morning was pretty routine.  Justin worked outside in his shop while I stayed in the house and entertained Karsyn.  She is quite the busy bee these days.  Normally, she gets up (6:30am, even on the weekends!) and will entertain herself for about an hour before its time for breakfast.  When I say entertain herself, she is either playing with her toys, or watching Disney Junior from her crib.  Before Karsyn was born, I thought Justin was crazy for putting a flat screen tv in the baby's room.  Now looking back, it was the best thing we did for the nursery!
Around lunchtime, we decided to go to BJ's Wholesale in Burlington.  I needed to pick up a few things, such as diapers and dog food, and while there, we might as well pick up 45 rolls of toilet paper!  We love BJ's.  (maybe that doesn't sound right...but you get the point)  It cheap, close to home, and has lots of neat things to play with!

Karsyn was fascinated with this illuminated vanity mirror.

After we left BJ's we stopped by Chick-Fil-A for a quick bite for lunch and then home.  It was hot as hell on Saturday, so we decided to all get in Karsyn's swimming pool to cool off.  She loves it.  And of course we love it because she does!  We could only swim for a little while because we had a birthday party to go to that night.  Our good friend, my long time neighbor, and somehow distant cousin, Jeffrey Hopkins turned 30!  His parents threw him a birthday party saturday evening at their house.  Happy Birthday Jeff!  As I wrote in your card, you're one of the nicest guys we know, and we love ya!

 This picture was taken back in March, sorry Jeff, it's the only one I had on my phone!  Look how little Karsyn is.

I'll tell you a funny story about Justin.... Before we went to Jeff's party, I was going to take a shower, and Justin was going to dry Karsyn off (from the pool) and feed her.  So I took my shower, and dried my hair.  As I was putting my hair dryer away, I heard something fall in the kitchen, followed by an "Aw, shit!"  So I wrapped myself in a towel and went into the kitchen to see what was the matter.  When I get there, Justin was on his hands and knees wiping baby food off of the floor.  Apparently, Karsyn had thrown her spoon, which was full of Pureed Chicken and Sweet Potatoes!  I immediately said, "What are you doing??".  He said, "I'm cleaning up where she threw her spoon, what does it look like?"  I said, "uhhh....I think you better look at your daughter."
Justin failed to remove the baby food jar from Karsyn's tray when he was cleaning up the mess.  So as soon as he got in the floor, she grabbed the jar (as most 7 month olds would do) and proceeded to try and drink from the jar!  She had dumped the whole jar of baby food down her front.....and Justin had no clue!  Of course, Karsyn was all smiles as always!
