Touch a Truck

What better event to take boys to than Touch a Truck? Michael, Logan, and Aiden got to see 26 different types of cars and trucks including a tractor, a fire truck, and an Indy race car to name a few. They were able to sit in the trucks, blow the horn, and touch any button they wished. They love cars and trucks so this was a wonderful outing for them.

Our funny story of the week......

A few nights ago the boys saw an airplane flying over our house. They looked up at the sky and then to Brian and said "Catch it Daddy!" If you had only seen the looks on their faces....I think Brian would have actually tried to catch it if he could!





I took this photo for my golf loving husband! See what you have to look forward to someday:)

Aiden is 7 months old!

Aiden is growing up so fast! He has been such a happy baby. He smiles and laughs all the time. He is really starting to interact with Logan and Michael. He will try to steal toys from them and always wants to be right by their sides. He loves to eat veggies and will be moving on to fruit soon. He can sit up well now and is trying to crawl. He is my little buddy and I love to cuddle with him. I can't believe he is already 7 months old!

A trip to the lake

Here are some pictures from our visit to Grandma and Grandpa's house this weekend. We had great weather and were able to do a lot of boating. The boys got to ride on the tube and go swimming. They had a lot of fun and were extremely worn out by the time we got home last night. It was a nice visit even though it was a short one:)

As the boys would say...."all done tube!"

Going to the beach!



Sitting up like a big boy!

I took Aiden out by himself this morning to have his 6 month photos taken. I loved the "beach" ones the best. He seems to know when he is getting alone time with Mommy and is very happy to be out and about on his own. After having a photo shoot with all three boys the last time, this one was a piece of cake! Michael and Logan spent the morning with their favorite babysitter Lauren and were happy to have her all to themselves.

Snuggle Bugs

Michael and Logan have been climbing in bed together when they wake up in the mornings. They love to snuggle together until I am ready for them to get up. Usually Logan climbs into Michael's bed. You can tell by the picture that Nemo is still Michael's favorite thing:)

Pool Party

One of my friends hosted a pool party for all of our kids. There were 8 total (including Aiden) and 6 of those were twins. Michael and Logan loved playing in the water and Michael was brave enough to go down the giant slide. After a couple hours of splashing in the pool the kids sat down to enjoy lunch together. It was a very nice play date.

Here is a short video clip of the boys favorite pool activity....butt flops!

Playing at the park

Brian and I took the boys to a nearby park last night and I was able to get some neat photos of them playing. At home they have to be sitting on top of each other but whenever we go out they run in opposite directions. Logan loved playing in the sandbox and Michael was climbing on everything that had a ladder. I am not sure who was more tired when we got home....the boys or Brian and I:)

My little sweet potato


This is a short video clip of Aiden eating sweet potatoes for the first time. If you listen closely you can hear him laughing in between bites. This was the highlight of my day yesterday:)

Aiden and Hazel

4th of July

Brian, the boys, and I traveled to my parent's lake house for the holiday weekend. It was a very chilly and rainy 4th of July which is why we are all bundled up on some of the boat pictures. Despite the chilly weather, the boys loved riding on the boat. Unfortunaly, they did not get a lot of swimming or tubing time thanks to all the rain. They got to meet their cousin Hazel for the first time and all the kiddos stayed awake for the firework show that we watched from the boat. Here are some pictures from our Holiday weekend:)
