Summer time...It's in full swing

Summer has arrived..and wow!! it's a hot one. I'm really hoping that this summer won't be a repeat of last summer. Record breaking temperatures, consecutive 100 degree temperature days...at least I'm not pregnant this go around. :)

Tomorrow is our first day of Heat Advisory....from 11am-9pm. Now, what to do with 3 active kiddos in a small house?!?!

 The pictures posted are from our morning at the park. I love the wildflowers and Leia enjoyed her cold drink. 

Vacation fun with cousins

 Landon's 1st Birthday....my nephew 

 I think he liked the cake :)

 Cousins having lunch outside

 Annie and Leia..the 2 youngest cousins

 Leia's 1st time to the beach

 Lily and her cousin, Lauren

Leia REALLY loved the beach ♥

Another edition of Vacation fun

 Watching the parade while at Disney.

 It's Minnie Mouse!

 And here's Mickey Mouse :) 

 Lily with Aunt Cathie watching the parade go by...there were so many people there but we found a good spot.

Despite the rainy weather, we still had an enjoyable time at the "Happiest Place on Earth"

Vacation sneak peek!

We are home from vacation...Home Sweet Home.

We visited friends and family, made a day trip to Disney World, and visited 3 different beaches.

The one thing we didn't do is make a stop by Krispy Kreme for Hot Donuts.

1 more sleep

yes! that's right!!! 1 more sleep til we leave for Florida. 

We are planning on leaving out after Jed arrives home from work tomorrow afternoon/evening. 

Driving through the night seems to be the easiest option to having a successful 16 hour road trip with 3 children.

The kids have selected their travel movies. 

Snacks have been purchased.

8 months already?

Guess who's 8 months old?!

I cannot believe it...she has grown so fast. It seems like just yesterday I was complaining of the heat and my big pregnant belly. It's crazy how fast little ones grow.

Leia has started saying "Dada (it was first), Baba, Buba, and Mama" . She has learned to wave. She doesn't do it on impulse, but it still the cutest. She is starting to cruise the furniture. And she is crawling like a pro.

In 2 more sleeps, we are headed to Florida to see my family and take in the attractions!!

9 months difference

Here is a before and after picture of Dakota....1st day of Kindergarten and last day of Kindergarten.
