We continue to have an awesome summer and our kids make us laugh every day!!  The highlight of my month was a 
girls' getaway to a friend's beachhouse last weekend.  S was Superdad/Mr. Mom and with the generous help of my parents, held the fort down while I was away for 3 days.  It was a MUCH needed (and I must admit, I feel that it was deserved ) break from the daily routine and I came back feeling mentally, physically, emotionally and spirtiually recharged.  Let me also say that S is absolutely deserving of some time to himself and is planning a guy's weekend in the fall.  It was great to get away for a break and it was also wonderful to come home to my awesome family!!

ADC had his 4 month check-up yesterday and weighs a whopping 14 lbs 13 ounces and is 25 1/4 inches long!! 


SO bored with the outfit changes and picture taking....


Blowing bubbles in the backyard---our favorite late afternoon activity





Getting a tutorial from Daddy on a new bubble toy...don't let that angelic face fool you---she
has her terrible two moments!!


She got the hang of it....


Playing at McWane Center, the children's science museum





Pushing all the buttons and "driving" the submarine





the purple sand center was a mess and not Mommy's favorite station!!


K's heaven----lifesize crayons!!





ADC hung out with me while K played but, wasn't too thrilled about it at this moment


Tuckered out from all of the action...taking a rest on the ladybug pillow
