A Visit to Daddy

Leevi was away for the week on a business trip, but he wasn't too far so the girls and I drove about an hour to see him on Tuesday and Thursday (we would have stayed the night but we had to get back for Leila...our neighbor let her out and fed her dinner so we were able to stay pretty late each time). Leevi was staying on a U.S. military air force base which has an amazing swim facility. The kiddie pool is awesome: heated, 3 small slides, one huge long slide, waterfall umbrella and small baby area. It was deep enough where Hailey could practice her swimming but not too deep where she couldn't reach the bottom. Kailee loved wearing the water-wing type life jacket and swim around on her own. We swam at the pool each afternoon until Leevi got off of work and then had dinner and hung out until bedtime so the girls would fall asleep on the ride home. His next trip is to Israel...don't think we'll be driving there to see him! :)
We were there a little longer on Thursday so we found a park to play at after the pool.
Kailee is doing amazing with her potty training this week! She hasn't had an accident in the past two days and is even waking up dry in the mornings and going on the potty! Too easy! Yesterday at the park she told me that she had to poop but there wasn't a bathroom in site so I just told her to go in her diaper. Hopefully we can officially call her "potty-trained" by next week!!! :)
