June 2013

We started a fun and busy month, with one of the best celebrations ever!!! One of our dear friends, Courtney-aka Boo, was baptized at her church.  It was such a wonderful moment and we loved being on the front row of her baptism and involved in her life to watch God's transformation of Courtney.

Some cuddle time with biggest brother

This little lady learned to sit up on her own and we quickly lowered her bed

She is so excited to have a new view of the world

Precious boy is so much fun

Caleb helped me with a little project- the process

and the finished product and place for way too many bows

Caleb and Avery were helping me with laundry and it ended with these two like this

Davis has been REALLY into ALL things sports.  He always loved balls but lately he carries balls, picture frames of his daddy playing soccer when he was little, books about soccer, he wears his cleats the majority of our time at home, and now dresses up to play soccer in the house.  This is a common look he has these days.

Davis took a nap in his soccer shoes and laying on top of his new soccer book from the library 

The boys were rewarded with a special treat of ice cream.  They got dressed in their swimsuits (so I could hose them off after) and they devoured these yummy cones.  

Devoured or ate them in very interesting ways

Avery is now clapping on demand

She loves her Daddy

Playing Baseball

Love Caleb's expression (hopefully he keeps his eyes open normally)

Boys sleeping/playing possum 

"Maybe if I rub this spot on Daddy's head, we will both grow hair"

I got him!

Now some kisses

And a little rest right here

Davis is also starting to dress up but then he gets really shy and hides

Trips to the library

The new park down the street from our house is finally open and we are there often (well before it got too hot).  Call us if you ever want to meet there.

We did  a really special service project, it is called Meals on Big Wheels.  We loaded a super fun bus and the boys delivered meals to senior citizens in West Dallas.  It was a great time and we will do it again soon.

We had a Date Night with our Community and played Top Golf.  We had a great time and had a few laughs.

The Boys

The Group

We had a special lunch and got in a silly picture war with Daddy at work

Crawling to Mimi

Our Neighborhood had a Flag Day celebration-this is the sweetest picture

Mimi and Papa were in town and were able to go to the Flag Day Celebration at the park 

Caleb rode his bike in parade that was led by a fire truck

Craig and Davis bringing up the rear of the parade

Caleb digging for prizes in ice cold water

And Davis pouring ice cold water in his eye--don't ask?

We were Craig's cheering section at his indoor soccer game--it was all Davis could talk about 

I'm training them early to comb my hair-Ah! The simple pleasures of a Stay at Home Mom!

We got the bouncer out of the attic and not sure who has more fun Avery or the boys.

A few trips to a splash pad because this momma can't handle 3 young kids at the pool by myself. 

Avery is beginning to explore standing up 

Just love a sleeping babe 

And that sums up our month, except something that was not included in any picture was the stomach bug we all shared.  Davis, then Julie, then Caleb all about 3-4 days apart.  It was brutal! Makes me blessed for having good heath the majority of the time.
