Brotherly Love


First Day of School

 First day of school in our new school room! So exciting!! Jonah is starting first grade and wants to be a doctor when he grows up. Funny how things change. He used to want to drive a school bus or be a garbage collector!

 Henry is officially starting Kindergarten! When he grows up, he wants to work at Costco. Maybe that means we shop at Costco a little too much.

And Lucy wanted her picture taken and to work at Costco with Henry!

Morning Cup of Cuteness


Sunglasses


 Ben is seriously the cutest, chubbiest, happiest baby ever! He simply adores his brothers and sister. The boys love him to death and Lucy is still warming up to him. It helps that she sees how much Jonah and Henry love him and she wants to be like them.

 We found these crazy cute sunglasses that we got for Jonah when he was a baby. They've been on all the kids as babies at one time or another. So it was fun to get them on this little chunkster!

Of course, shortly after we put them on Ben, Lucy decided they looked much better on her. Funny how that works.

Henry the Builder

 Henry is so creative! He loves to sit and build all day long. This is his scorpion he built with these blocks. I love how his mind works and his confidence. Excited to see where the future takes him.

Sweet Randomness

 This chubby little guy is just the cutest!

 Best big brothers! Henry and Jonah love to feed him and there's usually an argument over who's turn it is.

 Sweet little guy!


 My favorite superhero!

 We met up with some friends downtown at this great little water area. It's free and really easy to get to. The kids had a blast and since the water isn't deep, it was perfect for the little ones!


 Our crowd!


 This little guy loves his Daddy!



Who says your too old to go in the exersaucer?

More summer fun

This is how he sleeps - with his tongue sticking out. And it's the cutest thing ever!!

Drive in with the family. This is our favorite summer tradition.



Swim lessons - another fun summer tradition!



Ben loves his new wrap. But mostly he love mama!

We had the coolest opportunity to visit an alpaca farm. It was really neat! The kids got to see the alpacas and tour the "factory" where their wool is turned into yarn.  Of course it was crazy rainy and stormy that day and Lucy was randomly throwing up, but it was still a good day and fun experience (minus the vomit).

July 4th

This year, we invited all our friends from church over for a playdate and the mom's all made these super cute shirts for our kiddos. It was so much fun and it was all super easy and cheap! Just paint, some ric rack and some hot glue. Boom - you got cute shirts!



Ben had a super cute homemade bib with his footprint on it for the flag.

Lucy and her twin!

All the kiddos from church. Pretty great bunch!

Our sweet family


Random but Cute

This baby gets all the love!

Mother's Day! I'm one happy mama!!

I don't think he's any cuter than when he's asleep!

Wait! Maybe it's when he's smiling!!


So cute with her "chicky" dress and her "chicky" hair clip!!





Of course Ben loves Perry!

We had a super fun day playing at Unbelievable with all our friends!


Father's Day - one happy daddy!

Ben's first trip to the beach.

He looks like a little sausage!!

Lots of helpers!


This is one of my all time favorite pictures!! Look how chunky he is!!

Painting rocks. Because, why not?!

I know Ben loves to wake up to this.

Donut the size of my head? Don't mind if I do.
