Summertime

It's been so long since I have blogged. I probably should give it up I'm so terrible at it. You'd think that this newly formed "staying at home" business would give me a perfect excuse to have loads of blog posts. I must say I stay pretty busy considering I don't have a full time 'job', my job is my little girl and boy is she the best job I could ever have.

We have definately been enjoying our summer...on the fourth we did kid friendly fireworks (i say kid friendly but i'm pretty sure Kai got burned more than once, poor guy) Sparklers and Snaps! Kai and Eli had so much fun throwing the snaps and staring at the sparkling stick they held in their hands.

We went to Thanksgiving Points fireworks and they were BORING!!! The fourth is my favorite holiday and needless to say fireworks being the highlight and i was sorely dissapointed. (good thing AF made up for my missing fireworks shortly after with fireworks concluding Steel Days, they were awe-some) The kids went on a lot of the kid rides at the carnival..Jessica went with me on the ferris wheel and was so scared she got blisters on her hands JR and I rode the ring one it was pretty fun but I gotta say once you've been to Cedar Point (in Ohio) nothing compares...not even Lagoon, it's sorta ruined it for me :)

We are awesome


Tiffany came to visit her last night here before Peru!


Brady graduated from Cornell and so Brooke and Brady moved in with my mom for a little while! We are so lucky to have them back. Her boys are so stinkin cute!

They ran in the kids 1/2 mile and got first and second place!!! HOORAY! I just love these boys!!



It's nice to have us all so close by. I love my sisters!


And my sweet little one...she is getting so big. Almost 3 months next week. At her two month checkup she was in the 95% weight 90% height and 25% head circumference :)!! She is such a good baby..she sleeps so well at night only waking once in the night and she is so happy and smiling when she's awake. She's found her voice and talks to us all the time she even giggled for the first time the other day at my brother and sister inlaws dog Nebo and our dog Skylar playing. It has been such a fun experience being a mom I absolutely love it!
Thats all for now. I'm so tired, that's probably another reason I don't blog I usually only get a chance to get online at night and I prefer to sleep :)

lily is such a good baby she makes a new mom jealous of all those snuggles.
nice to have a girl around too, maybe she can teach my boys some manners...
