Swim Ranch 2009

We completed our first year of swim ranch and the kids did great. By the end of the week, Stafford swam from one side of the pool to the other side(with a swim buoy, but they say it just really gives them reassurance). I was so proud of him and he was so proud of himself. Reese did well too, but by the end of the week, she just wanted to play in the pool and not take instructions. I guess you can't have two patient children. Overall, I think it was a success and can't wait till next year.

July Days

We have had some great July days and nights. From swimming in the pool to eating corn on the cob to eating popsicles outside at night. I just love the summer and the great memories you make. These kids are loving the pool and can't get enough of eating popsicles outside after dinner. I strip them down, especially Reese, and let them loose. You can tell from the picture how well Reese is at eating it before it melts all over her. See why I strip her down.

Makes me Smile

I found this picture while I was downloading my 250 pictures from the last few weeks. It just makes me smile. I hope to catch up in the next few days. I am really behind on my blogging.

piggies

Guess who is keeping their piggies painted every week? I can't get over how patient she is

to let me paint them, but she loves it. As most of you know she isn't the most patient child. I absolutely love it though.

Guess Who's 3!!

1st Birthday

2nd Birthday

This is what he woke up to this morning. He walked in the kitchen and said, "Wow, this is for my Birthday!".

Eating his lion pancake he requested this morning for breakfast.

I can hardly believe my little boy is 3 years old today. He has came so far for a little boy who most doctors said shouldn't be here. What a major blessing he has been to us and we can't forget who he shares this special day with. None other than his favorite buddy his Daddy!! So Happy Birthday to the best guys in my life!!
