We spent the weekend playing at the park, swimming at Barton Creek, having the traditional Huntley/Hauschild Sunday Brunch, and having great chats. Saturday night was extra fun---we put the girls to bed, then, while playing dominos, we passed around Chris's laptop and started a second game. It went like this: somebody would suggest a musical prompt (e.g., pick a song you love that no one would expect you to like), and we'd each take turns answering the question by finding the corresponding video on YouTube. For that particular question, I think the boys will be equally embarrassed by their answers: Kurt's was The Climb, by Miley Cyrus and Chris's was Always Be My Baby by Mariah Carey. Okay, okay, mine wasn't much better: Water Runs Dry by Boys II Men. Joie was the only cool one with Eminem's Lose Yourself.

We were picture'd out from Wisconsin, so the following pics were taken with Kurt's phone at the park. Thanks for coming, Hauschilds...we love you!
This pic is actually on our back porch. The girls grabbed some measuring cups and spent quite some time prentending to give each 'sips' from the empty cups. Love Avari's little tongue sticking out!

Chilling with Dad
Delilah on the slide. Notice the everpresent sippy cup. Our daughter doesn't suck her thumb, can take or leave a pacifier, has no significant attachment to a blanket or stuffed animal. But if you try to take this particular cup from her before she's ready she will start WWIII.
In this pic, Chris is trying to take the cup away from her b/c I don't think it's safe to slide with a large hard plastic object.
She evaded Chris and won the battle.
Hope everyone had a great weekend!

You told our secrets!!! AWESOME!!!!! Great story telling Rach and we had an awesome weekend!
You could have at least added the song topics that redeem us!
Kurt-
Please tell Kurt that I totally like that song too, and I totally get why he loves it. :)
Oh, and I just had to add that my daughter was the SAME WAY about her sippy cup. It was her 'lovey'. No special blanket, but man, if she didn't have her cup it was all over, lol. :)
Loved the pictures and stories.
Glad to see all of you having so much fun!
Love you lots.

*Sigh* So many fun things to do in your Austin, I am jealous! Looks like the kids had fun, and sounds like the big kids did too!!
Poor Chris, do you think he is aware just how many battles he will lose to that strong willed and precious child of yours?!?
Give her a big smooch from Miss Impatient pants!
love the pics of the sippy cup! if you figure out how to get those "favorite objects" out of their little hands, let us know!!!!! for such little people, they've got a pretty strong grip!
