Look What We Did Today!

I'm pretty sure Abby was doing something that I did not want to change here!
Laura decided that she was going to get a drink from the sprinkler.

This is Luke trying to help me with the camera. It was more of a close up.

Luke's Bike Ride

Luke has really mastered his pedaless bike. He's great at balancing it as he coasts down the hills or picks up speed. I am afraid that he is ready for a big kid bike (without training wheels). Scary!

Laura's First Ponytail

I finally am able to put Laura's hair up in a ponytail. It didn't last long, she tore it out.

Luke's Nugget Swim

Luke did take some time out from his swimming pool to eat his nuggets. This is a play at the park day, but we couldn't due to it is under construction. So that's why we settled for McDonalds (mom felt really bad for them).

Laura Lou Who's Swim Time

Oh my little Laura Lou Who! She is always taking the world be storm whatever we do. One of her favorite summer past time is Swimming and Sprinkler time. She is fearless around the water. She really likes to make sure that everyone (trees, grass, and plants included) all have water.

Abby's World

Abby's World must be a very fun and exciting place because all she does is laugh and explore. Her hands and feet are always a fun time. Listening to her voice makes us all laugh. Relaxing in her stroller always pleases her, but recently it is her jumper that really has taken her for a loop. She's not quite sure about it, but she does enjoy it. Here she jumped so much she fell asleep. It was only a quick cat nap because it must not be the most comfy.

My Babies

My little ones all eating together at the table! They are growing up to fast.

Abby's eating baby food

Well, finally Abby has decided to eat some baby food. She had really been putting up a fight lately, but now she has decided to give it a go. Does it look like she likes sweet potatoes?

Luke Turns the Big 3

I can't believe that my little Lukie has already turned 3! Time sure does fly. He has really started coming into his own. He has become more independent (which is nice but I still want him to need me). He loves to shower instead of bath. He likes to hit golf balls with his dad, and ride his bike. He enjoyed his birthday so much this year. We made it pretty small with just family, but he enjoyed it.

4th of July 2012

4th of July 2012 was a lot of fun. We spent the day swimming in our little plastic pool (thank god Wal-Mart had some left). Then we went over for a little Ross family BBQ. No big 4th of July party this year, just some quiet family time. Then we were to lazy to go all the way downtown for fireworks (thanks to the drought no one else was shooting them off), so we watched them on TV. The New York fireworks show was fantastic, and sitting in the AC doing just topped it off. The kids were so tired, they feel asleep in our bed. They didn't stay (they are all bed hogs).
