Summer

Here is some of what we have been up to this summer....

 *Favorite time before bed...brushing teeth together

 *Finally trying on the cute outfits Daddy brought back for the kids from India

 *Watching a kids movie at the theater most every Wednesday morning

 *Keeping busy indoors with masking tape roads and little cars

 *A surprise dinner out at Texas Roadhouse with the cousins

*Playing dress-up with mommy's high heels. At least one of us is getting some use out of them!

 *Checking on GramPam & Pa-Pa's new house being built

 Amelia loves collecting treasures at the new house.

 *Jack wanted to have a turn pushing Amelia on the big swing

 *A tricycle ride

 *Walks to Mom-Mom & Pepa's house

 *Bath towel snuggles.  They like wearing their towels around after their showers and pretend to either be super hero's or Jesus. :-)

 *Little mugs of hot chocolate on a cool august morning

 *Playing outside

 *Wearing the new shirt mommy made

 *Posing for a picture after having gotten himself dressed for church all by himself for the first time - shoes and all!

 *Learning how to play Candy Land

 * Fun with the hose and a watering can outside

 *All wet

 * Watering Amelia :-)

 *Amelia sitting on Jack's lap while he reads her a story

 * This is what she does when you ask Amelia to show you how strong she is!  And here you get the bonus of a face covered in a cupcake.

 *A ride on the big cart at Lowes.  Jack with his cup, Amelia with her baby doll

 * Jack wearing his "boots" (rain boots that he picked out) to Trail Dust Steakhouse.

 *Dancing on the stage at Traildust - Air guitar

 * Days at home with my babies are the best!

 * Swimming at the pool

 * Playtime for Amelia & Eliana

 *Taking a trip to the Frisco Firehouse

 *Amelia's 1st pedicure - 21 months old.  She was well overdue on having this done for the first time!

 *Getting ready for fall and trying on their new coats.  Jack was trying to get Amelia to smile for the picture.

 *A relaxing ride on the swings

 *Building a road with wooden blocks

*A little bit of sewing. This is the baby doll I made for Amelia.

 *Amelia taking 2 baby dolls on a walk.  On her way to give Eliana her baby doll.

 * Jack sleeps in his big boy bed...most of the time

Perfect summer with my precious family!
