One more page...

This was left out when I posted the pages. Logan spent lots of time perfecting his daredevil stunts off the side of the fountain. He LOVES to swim (I think secretly he must have been a fish in a past life, J.K.).

Our 2nd California Adventure of the Summer!

For our vacation this summer, we opted to go simple and low-key for many reasons...number one reason was because of Lauryn's age and ALL the stuff you must pack for a baby! We spent 4 wonderful days at my parents house in California and soaked up all the pooltime we could get! The boys just thought it was THE BEST to swim all day long, from morning to night. Since we currently don't have a pool at our house, this was such a treat and new concept for them. As you can clearly see, they truly had the time of their little lives! Even Lauryn swam and got some sweet Papa time in. We got to meet our newest cousin, Baby Riley. What a Doll!!! And we took in an Angels baseball game along with some beach time. These pages are only half of the trip, so keep an eye out for the second half coming soon. We had loads of fun with our California family, we love you and thanks so much for all the smiles, giggles and firsts that we experienced!

Fourth of July Weekend, 2011

I was lucky enough to be off for most of the Fourth of July weekend, and boy did we celebrate with many friends and family!!! My Uncle Mark and his family were on leave for the summer from Hungary, so we got to swim and catch up with them. We spent another water-filled day at the Finders, some of our most favorite peeps in the whole wide world! And we finished off with Eddie's family, swimming at the Krueger's. With all this celebration time, we STILL have yet to take the kids to see fireworks on the 4th. In the summer, it doesn't get dark until after 8pm here in Arizona, and our kiddos are just now able to stay out past 10pm without having meltdowns or falling asleep etc. Maybe next year we can see some good old fashion fireworks lying on blanket in a park after a yummy picnic! But it WAS lots of fun to be with so many this year, THANKS everyone!!!

Lauryn, Our 6 month Cutie Pie!!!

As I post these pages, I am just shocked at how fast the time has flown by. These are a few shots of our cutie at 6 months, but she just turned 10 months old! Here she is barely sitting up, laying on her tummy doing 180's, beginning to eat baby food, and in real time, she is crawling everywhere, getting bigger and wanting real food. She clapps her hands on command now or when she is just happy about something and she loves to be in the middle of whatever her brothers are doing/playing. She is already quite busy! I used to think that little girls just sat and played quietly and boys were the ones running around crazy...not so much anymore. She lets us all know she is HERE!

More Father's Day Fun...

We continued our Father's Day celebrations with a trip to the movies to see the new Cars 2. Nanny and Papa joined us for this afternoon extravaganza of popcorn, icees, candy and lots of CARS! The boys were so excited to see this movie, even Ethan had a new shirt to wear. Lauryn managed to get through most of the movie, but I think all the car chasing exhausted her and she napped through the 2nd half. Eddie especially enjoyed sharing this day with his kiddos, Happy Father's Day!
