June and July 2015

School's out for the suuuuuuummmmmmeeeerrr!
Wahoo, mommy is so excited to have this time with you! I still had to work the first week of June so yall got some Nana and Papa time!


Brody - you started swim lessons. You were a little leery and cried for about the first two days of lessons. After that you slowly got better and better. By the end of it you were going under, jumping in, and actually liking swimming! We are so excited that you love swimming now and are enjoying it!!! It was well worth the money. Payton - you were a trooper and watched Bubs during lessons and just hung out. You are a very easy baby!


The next week, mommy and daddy headed to NYC for their anniversary trip!!! It was hard to leave you guys (especially for mommy) but yall did great!!! You went to Lolly and Peeps house. Mommy and daddy had a great time but sure missed you!!! We got home and had a couple weeks at home. We did some play dates with Cole and Finley, went to the library, went swimming, went to Little Giggles, and made lots of Forts and Lego towers at home.


Payton, we took you to the ENT the first week of June. On the 27th, you had tubes put in! You did great with the surgery but had a hard time coming out of anesthesia. You screamed....a lot. But by the evening you were awesome! Hopefully this will fix your ear issues!


We celebrated the 4th of July by watching Fireworks and First Baptist in Centerton and Brody loved the inflatables! Payton - not so much! But we had fun watching the fireworks and Brody, you really got into this year!


The next week, mommy and daddy headed to Louisville, Kentucky with the youth for Nazarene Youth Conference. Nana and Papa came to Bentonville. It rained a lot this week but yall at lots of fun at home, going to parks, and the "ummunity center" as Brody calls it. They have a pool there.


We missed you again! We got back and headed to Uncle Jared's wedding. Both did awesome during the wedding. Brody pulled you Payton down the isle in a wagon - so cute!!!


Then we had a few weeks at home. The Amazeum opened up in Bentonville so we got our year pass for it. Yall LOVED it! We will be going there often. We went three times in about a week and a half! There is so much fun stuff for you to do and it will be a great place to go in the winter too!!


We had so much fun with playdates with Cole and Finley to Little GIggles, the park, the splash pad, exploring creeks! We built forts and towers at home and went on lots of walks. We LOVE summer time although it went WAY to fast this year! :)


The first week of August we headed to Orange Beach for family vacation - but that will be in the August post. :)


We love you guys so much!!
