Yup...we gave Cayden his first Mohawk this summer.

Andrew's first Pool experience

Unfortunately I missed the best part of this First as I didn't have my camera on me and I wasn't about to run inside to get it as I didn't want to miss the laughter of Andrew! Andrew Jumped into the pool with out any of us knowing.....Granted there is only about an inch of water in the pool. But he was literally jumping and kicking all over the place! The best part was when he would stand, look at us and then fall into the water! Over course he couldn't be the only one to get attention so Blake had to join in!



The running start!

Seriously look at that big Belly!

Tball For Blake

Blake always leaves T-ball saying he loves it and can't wait to go back. But if you were actually there watching him you would think a different story. I think it's because there so many kids that he likes to watch them all but he was always so quiet and usually the last in. If you know Blake personally that's not him. Everything is a race and He's loud! But here he is sitting in the circle while everyone tells there name and favorite ice cream. (Note to teachers.......20 3 year olds do not want to sit in a circle and listen to eveyone say there name and favorite ice cream EVERY practice. That was a waste of 10 minutes of a 45 minute practice!!)
Here he is running bases. He always stood on the outside. But notice he's rocking cleats and Glove!
Cayden was a great brother and was always cheering him on.
Practicing catching the ball. Looks excited huh?
And seriously believe me when I say he loved it!!!

Summer Begins.....

As I'm just now starting to Blog about our summer, summer is coming to an end! At least I'll be able to enjoy summer a little longer with the pictures!!

Andrew has kept us busy by the water as he loves it!! Really....he thinks he's a 2 year old that can swim and walk around by himself in the water! We always have to be 1 step behind otherwise he'll fall head first underwater and keep going!!
All smiles!
See what I mean...Catch me if you can, but I'm getting in!

Little Elsa! I just love her in red and her cute little curls that always seem to get curlier as the day goes on!


The boys rode this over and over....seriously my arms would have been killing!


Elsa and Andrew
Here's Cayden's frog....He had a name for him but I can't remember what it was. But if you notice it's missing a hand. I'm not sure if they found him that way or if for some reason there torturing it made it come off. This frog did everything that day merry go round, down the slide 10 times.....I'm sure it was so glad to be freed at the end of the day!

TWINS GAME

Justin took the boys to there first Twins game at the new stadium! They loved it! They even got to take the train into the city and thought it was so cool! But they seem to think Babe Ruth and Charlie Root are still alive, because Blake told me Babe Ruth hit a home run! Just goes to show that they listen to daddy's stories very closely at night!

Como Zoo

Sundays in the Park

I couldn't have asked for a better picture of this! I love how everything turned blurry except for Andrew!! You can never play around with your camera to much!! That's probably why I'm ALWAYS taking pictures!
Crawling!
So Big! Or as dad likes to say "TOUCHDOWN"
Blake is the one in my family that loves to have his picture taking! Here he is helping me test some back drops!
I'm glad Blake is always around because here is my dear sweet husband testing backdrops for me! Looks real thrilled huh?
Best Buds
Every once in awhile I'll let Cayden take a couple of pictures! Great Job Cayden!
Another Cayden Shot.
And Another!
Here's Justin's......hhhmmmmm


Always throwing rocks and getting a little too close to the edge for my comfort!

Blue Angels

Yes, we stood in the pouring Rain to watch these! At least I was able to pull out my camera for a quick shot.

Daddy and Andrew mow the yard!
