Tooth

Eli lost his first tooth today. I'm excited for him but it just proves that my baby is growing up!

He was at the pool when it came out but he was able to hold into it so the tooth fairy can bring him some money.

Bumbo

Isaac went in the bumbo for the first time today! He enjoyed being able to watch his brothers.

Isaac 4 months old

I can't believe Isaac is four months old. He is 'talking' up a storm. His spit up is still bad but he's not bothered by it. Isaac is sleeping through the night 8-9 hours!!!

I think he might be teething (he's chewing on everything!).

Isaac's 4 month stats:

24 1/2 in - 21%

14lb 6oz - 27%

Summer Fun Days

We went to the fire station yesterday for Summer Fun Days!

We had a great time meeting the fire fighters, getting a tour of the station, and sitting in the fire truck.

New Train

We got a new Train!

Our friends the Rays are moving and had a train from when their kids (Gram & Amanda) were little.

My boys love it.

The train all decorated

Thank you Julie for thinking of us!

The Hair Cut

While cleaning up after breakfast yesterday I found this:

So I started checking heads (although it was under Luke's chair so I knew where to start)

Eli had cut Luke's hair while Luke was strapped in eating. He waited until I went to change Isaac:(

I should of know something was wrong when Eli cleared his dishes, washed hands, and started working on a project without being asked.

The boys had needed hair cuts so I took both in for a cut.

Eli wanted a new look.

Before:

After

Eli has said, "I'm so happy I'm spiken my hair" a few times as he spikes his hair up. It is very funny. But I think he looks too old!

Luke's is just shorter.

Before:

After:

Isaac didn't get a cut but I'm sure he'll be ready for one in a few months!

Luke

Luke has some fun words right now.

ALLI (al- I) = Eli

Luke calls Eli ALLI and it's so cute!

Ice mallows = marshmallows

Luke asks for ice mallows for every meal, between meals, and as his treat. I can get him to do most things with the promise of one mini marshmallow:)

Friends

I went to George Town last Sunday with the boys and Courtney to meet up with Jill and Melanie. Jill was in TX for a family wedding and had Avery with her.

I'd never meet Avery so I was excited to see her.

We had an adventure on the way down.

I somehow missed the low fuel light (maybe since the key fob was over it) and we ran out of gas in the middle of nowhere on I-35W.

Since we didn't want to be sitting ducks in the van Courtney and I took the boys to the fence line for a picnic of sorts.

We had snacks, water, and a DVD player. What more do you need.

My hero Brandon came and rescued us!

Since we had built in extra time for traffic we weren't late getting to Gtown.

We meet at a fun restaurant for lunch. It had an outdoor play area for the kids to be crazy in. Then we headed to Melanie's house to change into swim suits before heading out to swim.

Eli and Julia made great friends.

We had a great time!

The drive home was long (5 hours) since we did hit bad traffic but Courtney and I enjoyed talking since the boys were all asleep.

I loved meeting Avery and seeing Julua and Collin.

And you can't go wrong when us girls are together!

We missed Marisa and Katherine. I'm ready for our girls trip!

July 4th 2014

We had a great 4th. We started with a parade through our neighborhood. Then the Richardson family came over for grilling and playtime. We ended our day with swimming at the Kirkpatrick's.

I sprayed the boys hair blue and red for the parade.
