Cousin Time

The past week cousin MacKenzie came and spent a couple of nights with Kennedy and Jaxon. The kids enjoyed playing together. We mainly spent time around the house and at the pool. It is amazing how long a tub with bubbles can entertain kids. I was quite tired after our shopping trip with MaMa and the girls on Friday.

Swim Lessons

Kennedy started swim lessons this week. Not that I wasn't ever a firm believer in lessons, but now whatever doubts I had are no more. Kennedy has always been quite timid in the water. I think one reason for this was all the issues with tubes and having to wear plugs. At the beginning of the week she would barely put her head in the water and at the end of the week she was jumping in the pool head first and swimming some...3 more weeks of swim lessons!

Fun with Granny and PoPo

Hot summer days call for some water play. Granny and PoPo were visiting this past weekend and that is just what we did-enjoy the water! The kids had a blast playing and are always sad when their grandparents leave.

Need a New Maid???

I have mentioned this before, but Jaxon is obsessed with vacuum's. He goes to the closet, pulls them out, and is at the outlet ready to go. Alot of times if we are rushing to head out the door, which is more often than not, I plug a vacuum in and this is what you get. He is either vacuuming or pulling something around the house.

Brenham Goes to State

Granny and PoPo gave us a call Saturday to come watch the Brenham Cubs play at SHSU. I was a little hesitant at first just thinking about Jaxon running the bleachers, but it turned out to be a great game and the kids had a blast!! Another treat was that the Maurer cousins were there too and the kids got to play together. The Cubs clinched a state play-off spot in game three!! Although, we now bleed purple, we still support our Alma Mater....what an amazing accomplishment for the Cubs.

This is one my favorites of the girls! They really enjoy playing together!

Jaxon enjoyed sharing popcorn with PoPo and the dollar fan I picked up at Wal-Mart was the best buy ever!!!

Got to Love Play Dates...

Friday's signify three things 1) day off 2) mommy time with my babies and 3) many Friday play dates. Friday we packed up and met Cooper and Brooklyn for some shopping and water play at Market Street. The kids had a blast together. It was nice to get in some "girl" time, lunch, and some much needed shopping.

Boy versus Girl

You always hear everyone saying, "He is such a boy, or she is such a little girl!" Well, we have been blessed with the best of both worlds. Meet our prissy little princess, however, I think she is a tough little girl, and our messy little boy!!

I have reverted to allowing Jaxon to feed himself quite often especially on game nights. This little outfit got tossed in the trash and this little boy was washed well after this meal!
