We've had a few journal worthy experiences lately. We have vallet trash twice a week, so yesterday I was taking the trash to our curb. It's about 15 feet in front of my door. I shut the door behind me so that Andrew wouldn't crawl out and get hurt. I put the trash down and turned around to go back inside. The door was locked! I couldn't believe it. Anna was trying to open the door to come out and get me. Instead, she locked the door!! I freaked out. We have a mail slot on our door, so I opened it and said, "Anna, UNLOCK the door!!" This was her response, "NNNOOOOOOOO!!!!" I was trapped outside while they were crying inside. Andrew is crawling up the stairs like crazy now but always falls down if I'm not there to catch him. Needless to say, my heart was beating pretty fast. I ran to my neighbors to ask if they would come stand by my door while I ran down to the office. I then sprinted to my leasing office and they drove me up on their golf cart. I unlocked the door to find happy, safe kids. Andrew was sitting on the first step, but I don't think he had any accident. Whew!
I was cooking in the kitchen the other day while Andrew was crawling around playing with toys. All of the sudden, I heard the toilet flush! I found Andrew standing up holding onto the toilet seat, grinning ear to ear, and playing with the toilet water! GROSS!! We definitely keep our bathroom door closed now!
Anna's been having a hard time with bed time lately and last night as we were putting her to sleep, I told her I was going to give her one more kiss and then..... She was to fill in the blank. I wanted her to say "Bedtime!!" Instead, she exclaimed, "CRY TIME!!" Oh boy!

Life is funny! We took the kids to a splash park the other day. They loved it. We went with our good friends, the Hintze's. It was a great day!

ooh, I love the fountains at Tower Grove park! what do you mean you don't update very much? There's a ton on here! And I love your picture at the top--is that the one you said you don't like?
those are great journal memories :) How scary though about being locked out! I would panic and cry! I'm always nervous I'm going to get locked out of the car with the kids still in since matthew likes playing with the locks - hopefully it never happens! I had to laugh at Anna's 'Cry time' hopefully it gets better soon! your kids looked adorable for the 4th of July!
Oh my gosh, I can't imagine getting locked out with the kids inside...I mean, sure, we all say we would love to get some time away, but that is not the way to do it! Your kids are getting so big and every bit as cute as they always were.
