Red White and TWO (part 1)

First Fourth of July with my TWO babies!!!

We had a great time at Ryans Parents house on Lake Conroe. We celebrated the whole weekend starting Friday afternoon and not leaving till Tuesday. Friends and family came throughout the weekend.

Here are some pictures of my favorite little boy having so much fun all weekend!!

Waiting for the fun to begin day 2!
This was empty I promise!FAMILY PIC!

All this fun lead to a lot of this too...

Thanks again Jean and Dave! You always go above and beyond! Love you!

Worth the Wait!

I got my Mother's day Present this week...

The two pendants have the kids birthdate on the back too!

The raw stones are diamond (sages birthstone)
and aquamarine (Avery's birthstone)

LOVE IT!

Thank you so much Ryan.
You did good :)
I love you!

Bath time!

Listen for the "Love you" at the end from Sage to Daddy. Melts my heart!



Check out our fun unplanned day below...

Unplanned FUN

So, on days that I have NOTHING planned , all day, I get a little nervous.

Those are days that seem to last extra LONG.

Today was one of those days, and it turned out to be SO much fun.

And we never left the house!

In the morning I (by myself) swam with both kids for the first time!

Sage is so independent with his floaties! And we have shade on our pool until 11:30 I found out! Then my cousin Lisa came over with her 4 kids. Sage LOVES them all, especially Carson.

He mimics everything he does.

He wanted Payton to read him a book. (random)

After nap we all cuddled on the couch for some Barney, then played upstairs for a bit. Then I decided it was too hot outside for Avery so Sage "swam" in my bath. He loved the jets. I realized that I never have to buy bubbles again!! He was in there for an hour. Avery just sat in her Bumbo or with me. We sang, we laughed, we played...

Finally, Sage helped me make dinner for Daddy. He was so excited. I promise he wasn't too close to the stove :) and I was right there. (except when I stepped back to take a picture) :)

Taste test..They are starting to interact. Sage loves that she can "talk." We all were baby talking tonight!

Sage thought she was drooling too much and suggested we put the wash cloth on her. He was so proud of himself!Ryan was watching a soccer game on TV, and Sage went and stood JUST like him. It was SO cute! He wants to be just like Daddy in every way!

"Talking"

I seem to have a talker on my hands!

Great Buy!

We went to a birthday party a few weeks ago that had this great

inflatable bouncy house with slide.

Sage could play in it ALL BY HIMSELF!!

I left the party knowing we had to have it. So....

Mommy gets to sit and relax (well, sit and take care of Avery, but still)
BONUS-he got to tired after playing that he slept in till 8:15 the next morning!

Avery was very entertained by my cousin Lisa! Thanks!

**Another great treasure we found this weekend...fabric floaties!
They don't hurt when putting them on or off like the plastic ones.
Sage can swim with these!!!
All by himself (with us watching from very close!)
He is so independent and he loves it!

Camera App

I got a new App on my phone called camera+. I have been playing with all the different effects lately. Here are some things you can do with it...

Jean did these two:

I just changed this one to black and white
