On Saturday, the Manglona's hung out together all day, dragging along DJ(Ashley's boyfriend) everywhere we went. He is great with Hailey and laughs at Elias (and Ashley!). Elias has gotten very brave with the playground and tries to climb up the slide and thinks the soccer ball makes a great chair. He is doing well at chasing his sisters around and making sure they realize that soon he will be able to beat them.

On Sunday we decided to twist Daddy's arm into taking us swimming at Granny's pool (we like to crash that place because it's a brand new pool and free). He got to see that Elias likes to drink pool water and splash. Hailey is now touching the bottom of the 4 feet deep part with a little shove from mom. This is a lot considering that she is barely 3 feet tall! She has learned after two swim days how to get the sticks from the bottom of the pool. She isn't in swimming lessons this year because apparently they fill up for the summer in early April. Mom will get on the ball for next year.

Today, we took the son of their babysitter to the sprinkler park with us. Direct quote from Hailey about Riley (the son).."Momma, Riley and I are gonna to get married and have kids together....cause we love eachother. Okay?". I figured we better take him to play with us once in a while if she has these plans already made! So, I also inlcuded a picture of Riley, our very distant-future son-in-law. Unfortunately, Ashley was at band camp while we were enjoying the sprinklers...sorry Ashley! More swimming tomorrow though....and she gets to go AFTER band camp. I'll give you a sneak peek though....DJ with new and improved blueberry hair....
