| Swimming has been glorious this summer! We enjoyed every minute of it. Now that our pool temperature is getting in the high 80's, it is feeling a titch chilly for us wimps...looks like Fall is underway in Phoenix:) |
 |
| This baby girl is a little too daring, EVEN without the flotation device. She now feels invincible in water thanks to this thing. She even decided to jump in with her clothes on the other day...thankfully, Mama and Hudson were right there to fish her out. (Phew...) |
 |
| With Hudson at school, we feel a bittersweet reality. We MISS MISS MISS him, but now we acually do girl things (aka: lots of shopping, tea parties, dancing and lugging baby dolls around). The girls love to keep busy pretending with their purses, babies and push things. I adore the show! It is always precious to me. |
 |
| Putting lots of rocks in a mini pool with friends? Now that's a great idea! We love Kate and Millie Bahr. Met them at the park last Fall and they have become some of our best friends:) xoxo |
 |
| This little shadow is the cutest EVER. Feeling a little arm and chubby hand wrap around your leg while doing the dishes, is probably my favorite feeling, She really has this thing with purses, babies and her blanket. Very rarely is she seen without all three in tow. Where did she learn to be SOOO stinking squishy?! |
 |
| A happy birthday shout out to our beloved Papa Montague!!! We feel so blessed to have so much love and support from you. We think you are pretty incredible and love the time we get to spend with your smiling face:) |
 |
| For Brielle's birthday, she insisted upon a chocolate cake, with LOTS of flowers, spots and stripes. Mama provides, hunny. It was sooo much fun to put this baby together, but a huge time sink. She was ecstatic so it definitely was worth the effort. |
 |
 |
| Bri's 3!!!!!!! We love you doll face! You are such a sweetie to your big brother and little sis. Your Mom and Dad are so proud of everything you are! |
 |
| Hudson builder was excited about the new toy from Bri's birthday and got into character with the fireman's hat:) I love this kid's imagination! |
 |
| Cookout in the backyard with Kate and Millie! We have loved this new house, neighborhood and feel so blessed to have the extra space for our chillens to explore. It is heaven sent to us. God has been such a part of every detail of our lives. Even the simple things, such as housing comforts. We couldn't be more grateful! |
 |
| Cloud of cuteness, Ruby... this hair is too much for me. The fluff. The bounce. It is overflowing!!!! LOOOOVE you. |
 |
| What is better than clean, freshly bathed kids eager for stories. This has always been a favorite part of my day: snuggling with my babies and reading bedtime stories. Aaaahhhh. I hope I always remember the joy of such moments. |
 |
| Hudson is a kindergarten champ. He has an amazing enthusiasm for school and even wishes it continuted through the weekend:) Homework? Fun. To him, school is the best thing ever! I miss you, but we are so proud of his remarkable attitude and eagerness to do his best. |
 |
| Picnic in our backyard! Why not? Any excuse to turn on some music and get snackie together. |
 |
| Here's the fluff that I'm obsessed with...and the profile and thumb...I need 15 of these. It never gets old. Being a Mom rocks my socks. |
