Summer HEAT!

I apologize for being a terrible blogger lately.. summer has been crazy! So far, we’ve had two camps (LK had Art Camp and Ethan had Lacrosse Camp), VBS, and let’s not forget that Chris has been out of town for 10 days of all of this! Whew! Momma is worn out!!! Thank goodness for my sweet Grams, her pool, and our amazing summer nanny, Alyssa! LIFESAVERS!

I’ll do a better update soon, but here are some phone pics that I’ve taken in the midst of all the craziness…

E LOVES his 3DS that he got for his birthday!!

G man was able to turn forward facing! He loves it!!! He sits in the middle so he is in the middle of all the action!

            

Speaking of Gray.. he has gotten QUITE brave lately! The other night I put Ethan in the bath, Gray wanted in so I put him in with Ethan. I washed him and let him play for about 5 min, then took him out. I got him dried off, lotioned up, and dressed – new diaper and t-shirt. Well, as soon as I was done with him he took back off to the bathroom. Before I could even catch up, he has CLIMBED IN the tub!! I heard “GRAY.. NOOOO!!!” and a splash! OH MY GOODNESS! This child is a daredevil, I tell y’all! He was quite proud of himself! My nerves are shot most days! ha!

 

He also likes to play with an old cozy coupe at my Grams. And what’s better than playing naked in the grass??! ;) He was in heaven!

These two brighten my mornings!!!

After the kids pictures the other night, we came back up from Mississippi near the airport. I couldn’t resist stopping at the end of the runways so that the kiddos could watch the plans take off and land. I remember do that at FedEx with my grandfather growing up. I definitely felt like a little kid again! Ethan thought it was the coolest thing he’d even seen! I even got a “Mom.. you are so awesome!” Made my day!!

The sweet sweet man, Chris Stickles, had these sent to me while he was out of town! Boy, do I love him!

 

We did ALOT of swimming while Daddy was away! Ethan is diving like a mad man! This is his “Elvis Dive”!

Essie glitter polish.. a BIG hit with 8yr old girls! Worth every penny to see that smiling face!!

Gray decided to take his diaper off the other morning. This is the site that I woke up too. G-R-O-S-S! We had a long discussion! ;)

Daddy FINALLY came home!!!! We missed him so much!

Cool Dude! Love him!

I promise to do a better post soon! I hope everyone is having a fun, safe summer!!! It’s 105 in Memphis today!! YIKES!
