Naughty Little Monster

I wondered what was up when Kamryn was trying to put a diaper on Elmo, then she suddenly disappeared. I knew what she was doing as soon as I heard the toilet seat fall down. I went to investigate and found this. I shooed Kamryn out of the bathroom and Brody came running in crying hysterically for Elmo. No....Elmo didn't drown....he just received a complimentary swirley from Kamryn. He'll survive....but not sure his 'tickle me' parts will ever work again....he does need to be washed, afterall.

Harvest Time

We lost a ton of apricots to a few nice storms that we've had lately, but I was still able to stock up on dried apricots and jam for the next year.
This pic is kinda hard to see. But John was picking apricots for me in the rain. Cheap, good-looking labor.

Cute. Cute. Cute.

My boys.
I caught a pic of Kamryn holding Liam's hand under the blanket in the car. Too very sweet.
Liam loves his big brother. Teagan is very good at making Liam smile.
Caught you! -Kamryn sitting in the baby swing using her toothbrush on her feet. Nice.

Love My Babies

Have I mentioned that I just cannot get enough of this little girl?


Liam likes his big sister too.
She even "reads" to him. What a nice big sister.
Oh....Kamryn is sooo hilarious!

A Successful Day At Lagoon

Besides a frantic 10 minutes when we lost Brody, we had a very enjoyable day.
These boys are lucky to have such a great Daddy.
Totally soaked.
Totally stoked.
A ride with Momma.
Kamryn, pretending to enjoy her day in the stroller.
Too cute.

Kids Will Be Kids

What are you supposed to do when Mom hasn't got the pool set up yet and you reeeeally want to swim? You dump all the toys out of the outside toy bucket and fill it up with water, of course.
Yes. Those are shoes over her little Pj'd feet. And yes. She wore them to bed.

Old Fashioned 4th of July

Kamryn finally stopped throwing her "I'm freaking tired" fit and enjoyed the fireworks. Even baby Liam stopped to enjoy them as well. My bro Tony (with my john-john's help) put on an excellent firework display for the community....but I, of course, didn't get pics of them.
Brody, Teagan, and friend (Benjamin) watching the fireworks.
Sparklers with gma Lola.
My mom and sis-in-law, Nancy, belly dancing as part of the night's entertainment. We were so impressed with Mom and her bravery!
Cuddling with PaPa Nick.
Did I mention it had to be the coldest 4th I can remember?!?
Teagan and his cousin, Bryson, were one of the winners in the water balloon toss contest. Makes a mama so proud. :o)
Teagan playing 1st base during the community (mostly kids participated this year) softball game.
Brody playing 1st. He looks like a pro.
July 3rd we were in Spokane with Papa and Lola. This is basically what we saw of Kamryn as she explored Riverfront Park.
Brody boxing. hehe
Brody and Teagan got snakes painted on their arms and Kamryn got a little red balloon on her hand. So much for the popular face painting...my kids like to be different. It was a fun day.
The whole weekend was great... Fast, but great.
