Beach Bums

We got back from the beach today and had a great time as a family with Maw Maw & Papa. We were a party of 10!

Kylee loved playing in the sand and Kolton had a few mouthfuls of sand that he wanted to try out.
He even tried to find a few cookies (AKA shells) in the sand to eat.

Ready for the pool

Kept Maw Maw and PaPa busy

Dance, Play & 11

3 afternoons this past week Kylee went to a Magical & Glamour Dance camp up the road. She did not know anyone there, but did so well and was such a big girl! She was very nervous as evidenced in her pictures, however by Thursday she was talking to the instructor about seeing deer (her Daddy's girl), getting her ears pierced (that is what she wants for her 4th birthday) and interacting a lot more with dancing and talking to the other little girls. So glad she went, but I was nervous for her as well because I knew she was.

Kylee is straight across in the pink dress.

Getting her some "blush"

On Friday we had some special visitors come to see us. It was a great evening and enjoyed their visit. Kylee had gone to spend time with Maw Maw and Papa, so she was not here to play with Addie. That just means we have to invite them back soon so the girls can play. Kolton enjoyed interacting with his "girlfriend" Eliza, 7 months.


Kolton turned 11 months yesterday! Totally in denial that we are celebrating his first birthday less than a month from now. He is pulling up and cruising along furniture and anything else he can find. He will walk with your fingers and can stand on his own for a few seconds. We are not ready for him to walk yet! Kolton is into things Kylee never messed with, such a boy! I hope this next month goes by really slow because I am not ready to say I have a 1 year old little boy.

VBS

Our little girl did so good this past week at our church VBS, Amazing Wonders Aviation. It was a long couple of days, but she did great!

Recovery Mode

Kylee enjoyed helping Mommy this week prepare green beans to pick that Paw Paw sent us.

While we were preparing green beans this is what Mr. Kolton was doing...just like his Daddy!


Here are our pictures from July 4th celebrations....

Wow Mommy, those are some loud and BIG trucks!

Chilling with my friend Colin, wishing they would get us in somewhere cool!

All our parade friends!
Wednesday afternoon this was Kolton and I knew something was off...
He loves his Aunt Brooke, however he just doesn't lay on someone for an extended period of time. Wednesday evening he went to bed with a low grade fever and woke up Thursday morning around 5AM burning hot. Fever all day on Thursday and still not feeling well on Friday. Kylee began coughing on Friday and hasn't been feeling well either, so we spent the majority of the weekend resting and staying cool to get well. Kylee even took a nap today, which means she really did not feel well. She fell asleep on the couch, which has NEVER happened that I can recall. Hoping we are on the road to recovery.
Our day at home on Friday

Love this picture!

HOT

It has been one HOT weekend here at our house. It got up to 106 degrees here. We stayed inside most of the weekend needless to say. We had a few celebrations to attend this weekend, but other than that we were inside the house. We are trying to get pictures together for Kolton's 1st birthday party invitation so I don't have many to share of him this week, but I do have this CUTE, INNOCENT (laugh out loud), and BEAUTIFUL little girl to share.

Kolton was rubbing her hair all around and they were sharing sibling LOVE! :-)
HAPPY 4th OF JULY! BE SAFE & STAY COOL!
