This past week was a such a great way to spend my last week before going back to school!! My mom got here last Tuesday and then my dad got here on Thursday. My mom was able to see Cole finish his last 2 days of swim lessons and on his last day of swimming, we decided to take him to the splash park by our house. The heat here in Dallas is a little unbearable to be outside so we didn't stay at the park too long. Cole had fun though and was able to burn off some energy!

Good thing Granddad is so tall so Cole can reach the giant beer bottle. :)

Saturday was our little friend Carter's 1st birthday party. Ethan and Oni have a pool in their backyard but they also got this giant water park/slide thing and it was a big hit! Cole, who isn't a huge fan of water even loved playing in it.
This is a picture of Cole with his friend Joseph. They are so cute together and Cole would just follow Joseph around everywhere.
Unfortunately this week had to come to and end and my parents are having to go back to Colorado tonight, boohoo!! Besides the unbearable heat and not being able to be outside too much, we really did have a great week. One thing that really cracked me up this week is that for the past 1.5 years, we have always referred to my parents as "Grandpa and Grammy". However, while they were here, Cole kind of changed their names to "Papa and Meme". How cute huh? I think he says Papa because Grandpa is harder to say and for some reason, Meme is what he decided to call my mom. He would walk around the house saying, "Meme, Meme....Papa, Papa". So precious!
I start my teacher inservice this week and then the kids come back the following week. Again, I'm super excited that I will only be teaching 4 hours a day so Cole and I can hang out in the afternoons. I think we will start the Mommy and Me swim classes with Cindy but those will only be once a week.
Oh Summer....where did you go!?!
