Kate with my grandparents 
I had put Kate down on the playmat and went to fix lunch. This is how I found her just a few minutes later! 
Jaden loves for Papa to tell her stories, but she pretty much directs the plot, then usually wants to act it out too! 
My almost-6-year-old! 
Happy girl gets to sit wth all of us at the table now! 
I just can't get enough of her huge grin! 
We went to Maramec Springs for a Mother's Day Picnic/Play Day. But it was all flooded. The water was not the beautiful clear trout stream, and way yup over its banks. We waded through ankle-deep sludge to get to a picnic table, but we still had a good time. We're looking forward to going again when the water is down. 
We finally got all 7 Seeley grandkids at our Mother's Day BBQ at Jennifer's. 
Our fantastic family on Mother's Day. I got to sleep in that morning, then they all brought me breakfast in bed and the presents they had chosen for me. Derek had taken Jaden and Tyler to Dollar Tree to pick out something for me. It's so fun to take them there because you can say, "You can pick out anything you want," and see what they come up with. Jaden picked out a blue glass goblet, which is actually very pretty, and Tyler picked a 100 piece puzzle of the USA. Then they each got me a Mother's Day balloon. This was the best Mother's Day yet!!! 
That sweet face! 
She's looking at her reflection! 
Finally enjoying some nice warm weather- complete with the pool and pops! 
Even Kate joined us outside!
Kate's wonderful new talent! She is doing this all the time now! It's really cute, but I'm not sure how much longer I'm going to think that!
