Ahhh, glorious, beautiful, lazy, hazy days of summer, how we love thee!
The babies and I are thoroughly enjoying every milli-second of our time at home. We've been "swimming" at "thuh poo" several times each week (my goal is to go at least twice, but some days that's easier said than done). We're also loving our play dates, sleeping in (you know, until like 7:30 :)) and playing outside when it's nice.
We planted a real garden for the first time this year... it's flourishing nicely. We're going to have squash and tomatoes coming out of our ears in a couple of days ~ Yeee Haw!
Hadlee and Jack are growing, personalities are blossoming and at times even storming! Jackson is as boyish as a boy can be... climbing, exploring, opening, closing, turning on and off, banging, climbing more. He cracks me up. I SWEAR he's my little brother made over. He just decided to walk last weekend... at 13 1/2 months. I was ready to send him to physical therapy! It seemed like he took forever, but now is chasing "Iss" everywhere and enjoying the freedom that comes with being baby #2.
Hadlee Anne is... charming, witty, motherly, serious, silly, observant, a bit selfish, a leader, teacher, protector... she's a little bit of everything rolled into one super cute package! The things she says just crack me up. We were driving home from church the other night and she began sniffling from the back seat when I asked her what was wrong hr reply was, "Mommy, I'm just so sad. I can't sing my La La song anymore because I just don't have the time to practice." Sniff sniff, hang head for emphasis. I just laughed...
Brandon has been working like a mad man. He's been away quite a bit but we are soaking up every moment he's at home.
In a couple of weeks we are heading down to our favorite beach to participate in one of my best friend's weddings. I'll be the maid of honor and Hadlee will make her debut as the flower girl... Super exciting!
The babies need some attention and I must set the table for our every-other-Friday night sushi. YummiYummi, Crunchy Shrimp and Chicken Terrioky~ YUMMO!
