Point Park and the weekend

When I was a little baby my parents took me up on Signal Mountain to Point Park and took some pictures of me. When Katie was a baby we decided to do the same with her. Of course then I wanted to do it with Ally and last week we took Blake up there and took some of him as well.
We had fun walking down the little path with my parents and then looking over to see the beautiful river, river banks, mountains, trees, open sky and more from where we were. Katie and Ally thought it was great to be so high and get to see so much.
After that we went to coolidge park and the kids and I rode the caresoul and played in the fountains. Then took a LONG walk around the paths in the park. Finally we ate dinner at Mud Pie for an end to a nice afternoon and a start to a great weekend.
Saturday Joe and I took the kids to the pool. Spent a few good hours there, brought a picnic lunch and then ran errands while 2 of the kids napped in the car. Finally grabbed a bite to eat with some free dinner passes we had and let the kids play at the mall.
Sunday we went to some friends apartment for a cookout. They have 4 cats and 2 dogs in their tiny 1 bedroom apartment. I believe Blake had a same allergic reaction cause he woke that night with a stuffy nose, that went into a green snotty nose and a low grade fever the next day. I took him to the doc Tuesday morning to learn he had a double ear infection. Poor little man. Although I want to blame it on the animals, I think it must have been a cold that went into his ears(although he did not show any signs till sunday night) cause Ally went to bed last night with the sniffles and now has a runny nose and is sneezing. I hate it when my babies get sick. And it runs through all three of them and takes forever for everyone to get well again. And it is so hard to take care of three kids when you aren't feeling well.
