Swimming with Lauren

Sadly today was our last day to have Lauren as our sitter.  Since the fall last year we have been using Lauren 1 or 2 days a week to watch Ava for a couple of hours so I can run errands, go to doc appointment, meetings or just a quite lunch with friends or the hubby.  Starting next week Lauren will be student teaching an unavailable durning the day.  Ava is going to miss her so much and so will I but hopefully she can come over in the evenings from time to time.  Also Lauren will be getting  married in less than the month.  We are so excited for her and Justin and look forward to being there on her big day.

For her last day to watch Ava I went to get my hair cut and then had to go to a Battalion Civilian Appreciation Luncheon on post.  It just so happened that the Luncheon was held at "The Landing"  Which has the pool and Splash Park out back.  I signed Lauren in and her and Ava got to splash around the pool all afternoon.  Ava even went down the big slide!!!  Lauren was able to capture some fun moments with the camera.  We sure are going to miss you Lauren!!!!

Miss Lauren

See the slide behind Ava and Lauren?  That is the slide Ava went down.  As long as your 3ft tall you can go down it and a life guard catches you at the bottom.  

Lauren said she loved jumping off the side
