We got to celebrate the Fourth of July for two full days this year and it was a lot of fun. The boys and I went to Mommy and Me yoga on Friday morning with Shannon, Clara, Russell, and Bailey and then we went to the Parkinson's for swimming, pizza, fireworks, and dessert on Friday night. Kieran was in the pool for over an hour and then played with the other kids the rest of the night and Reed was in the pool for over two hours. We had a great time and other than trying to keep Kieran on the blanket before the fireworks started the boys were great. I loved snuggling up with them while they were nibbling on cookies and discussing the booms and colors up in the sky. The kids didn't get to bed until 10:30 (three hours passed regular bedtime) but it was well worth it and Reed even slept in a little bit on Saturday morning.

After such a big 3rd, we were hopeful for long naps on the 4th, unfortunately only Kieran got the memo and Reed failed to take a nap at all. We still went to C and Tio's and had a great time swimming, eating hamburgers, playing in bubbles, and hanging out but left at normal bedtime since at this age, two late nights in a row can get rough with the boys. The kids all did great playing together but Kieran was especially fond of Connor and loved accepting the hugs and kisses C-note is known for.
