Cameron had to leave for a long temporary assignment so Presley and I headed to Dallas for 3 weeks. We stayed with Emily and Nick for the first half and my parents for the last. We had a great trip! It was so nice to see all our playgroup friends and my family again! Presley and Liam are really cute together right now. They weren't fighting quite as much as usual and they have so many common interests (Lightning McQueen and dinosaurs in particular) and they get so excited to share that with each other. Presley really got to play with Bryn, too! Bryn is starting to really play with toys and interact more with the bigger kids. It was so sweet to see Pres and Liam smile and play with Bryn.
Here's Pres and "Brynnie" (as she now calls her) in their matching outfits.
Pres and Liam took private swim lessons together while we were in town every afternoon. They not only LOVED swimming, they actually learned a lot from their teacher.
Pres is sitting on the seat in the train with our old playgroup friends at the new indoor safari park in Plano.
Presley's buddy, James. They play so well together. I know she's missed all our playgroup friends! It was so nice to jump right back in and get to play with everyone.
These were our water wings when we were little. My mom kept them and Presley and Liam swam so well with them. I am thrilled to be able to let her go in the water when she has these on and not feel like I have to hold her. Cameron got to fly in for Memorial Day weekend and we spent the whole weekend pretty much out at the pool.
Presley was such a big helper with Baby Bryn. She'd bring her toys if she got fussy or sing to her in the car. She even helped wash her hair!
We went to Mia's pool one day and played with Mia and Cate. These two girls have always made each other laugh and played so well together. It was great to get to hang out with Mia and her mommy. We sure do miss them!
Since they share so many interests, Pres and Liam even have matching Lightning McQueen pj's. I don't have a picture, but Emily does on her blog. These are their dinosaur pjs.
Here's an action shot from swim lessons.
Pres got sick the weekend before we left town. Liam came over to comfort her and play. She definitely perked up when he came.... especially when he brought doughnuts.

Kristy, James' mom, got Presley some princess accessories for her birthday. She LOVES them and now wears her tiara, watch and princess hairclips all the time!
Our visit ended with a champagne toast because Amelia and Daniel got engaged last weekend! We are so happy for them and excited for their future. Congratulations!
