June.

June was filled with a lot of sunshine, relaxing, and playing outside. We have loved having the pool and the kids are turning into little fishies. The first of the month, we had Tyler and Erin and their kids over for a BBQ and swimming and of course our luck would have it that the pool cover was jammed and wouldn't open. So we still had our BBQ  but then got out the slip and slide and water table. We had to improvise and Cade and Blair didn't seem to mind.  

 Lincoln had a little summer camp at the Children's Museum for a week. It was only a hour long so Norah, Cade, and I usually stuck around that area. One day we did the carousel, another day we did the splash pad, and then did the children's museum the last day with Lincoln.  Of course there were no complaints from them.

 Lincoln finally gave in and let us give him a Summer BUZZ haircut.  Once it was done, he loved it, especially not having to comb his hair everyday.

 Norah and Emma signed up for a week long summer dance-- beanie Boo camp. They loved it. They learned a little dance, did crafts, and had fun dancing and playing with the little Beanie Boos they got (Norah got a little rainbow Cheetah whose name was Dotty).

 She also LOVED her dance leotard and wanted to wear it everyday, all day.  :) Love this little, strong willed girl.

 Cade has been a nightmare lately when it comes to sleeping. He figured out how to climb out of his  crib... even though we had lowered the mattress all the way to the floor.  We tried everything. We even tried buying a sleep sack and zipping it up backwards so he wouldn't be able to take it off or climb out of his crib, but it took him all of about a minute to figure that out... so that was a $15 NOT well spent. So without naps, or wanting to go to bed at night--- it is pretty much a nightmare for mom and dad! This too shall pass.  The little stinker.

 Lincoln loved watching Uncle James as he was fixing the lightbulb in the pool.

 Cade is our little daredevil when it comes to swimming in the pool. He runs and jumps in over and over again--- and could care less if he has his life jacket on.  We have to be super careful with him as soon as the gate is open and make sure he has his floaties on.  He is pretty entertaining to watch though.

 He also loves to hit the ball off the Tee... and tried out his new version of running and then hitting it on the go.

 We got Blue snowcones one HOT HOT summer day in honor of Baby Brother and our 20 week ultrasound showing a healthy baby!

 We also finally bit the bullet and purchased a Lot to build a house. It is located in the Snow Canyon Estates in Santa Clara!  We are excited, a little nervous, and hope we made the right decision.

 One afternoon craft was making zucchini muffins- turned into hot air balloons for the little lego guys.

 Adam with Gary Talbot and Mark Wimmer from work. They got to tour some sort of mine.

 Hauling hay is always a fun activity during the summer time! here is some of the crew that helped this time.
