Photo Dump Wednesday: A little bit of this...a little bit of that

We had a very busy but fun weekend. It was an opportunity to make new friends, catch up with old friends and celebrate a milestone. 

We registered JOE for soccer practice a few months ago. J & I figured since JOE is at home, it is a good way to let her socialize and help her make new friends. Sure enough, one of the moms whose son also plays invited us to her son's birthday party on Saturday. 
J, JOE, JAE and I all went for the party and we had a great time with them. They really are very nice. 

We've invited them to JAE's "introduction" a.k.a. "Sip and See" celebration later on this month. 

In the meantime, here are some new pics of JOE's soccer practice from last Saturday.

We had 2 birthday parties to attend last weekend. I didn't get a chance to take pictures of the first birthday party. Well, more like I didn't feel comfortable doing so since it was my first time hanging out with the family and I didn't want to seem weird pulling out a camera and taking pictures at their home. 

The next party though was for a friend I made through this blog and who I now know in real life. It was a joint birthday party for both her sons. We were really happy to attend and JOE had a fabulous time there as well. 

How awesome is it that they had a bubble machine? PRETTY AWESOME!!! Even I got to play a bit.

J & JAE. I love the look on JAE's face. It is almost like she is saying "oh come one, must you take a picture all the time???"

J tried to take a selfie with JOE and she was being a goofball about it. These 2!

Then there's me and my little JAE. 

I tried to do a family selfie but obviously, that didn't work out so well. JOE didn't want to take a picture with us and JAE was distracted with what JOE was doing. Clearly, family selfie fail. We'll just keep working on it.

J and his his little princesses!

On Sunday, we went to Church. Afterwards, I cooked our lunch for the week. JOE decided she wanted to have a tea party with real cookies. She had mentioned it late last week so I picked up a package of cookie dough when I went grocery shopping. I am glad I did because this was an activity she enjoyed.

In the midst of it all, on Monday, JAE turned 4-months. I'll do a separate post on her milestone but I just can't believe that my baby is 4-months already. She really is awesome and I love the bond she is building with her sister. 

I hope you're having an awesome week. I am so ready for the weekend. I feel like I am always ready for the weekend. I told J last weekend that we should have a day off in the middle of the week every week in addition to Saturday and Sundays :-). If only right?
