Little Gymnasts...

We hadn't been to All About Kids to play for awhile so I took the kids this past week and they had a great time! I was surprised at what Abby could do, for being only 2! This inflatable is so steep but Abby seemed to master it

Happy 2nd Birthday Abby...

Abby had a great time at her party! So much fun turning 2!!

Alex was obviously having a great time!

Clyde

Clyde is still hanging in there and surprisingly doing pretty well. He still has a cough, especially at night, but he hasn't lost his appetite or energy. He is such a good dog, here are a few photos (and video) of Alex walking him...keep in mind Alex weighs 38 pounds and Clyde weighs 70. disclaimer...we do live in KY so shoes aren't required (haha, once one child takes shoes off when we are outside they ALL have to, sometimes it isn't worth the struggle to get them to put them back on)

O-R-E-O...

Oh, Oh, Oh, ice cold milk

and an Oreo Cookie

They forever go together,

What a classic combination

When a dark, delicious cookie

meets an icy cold sensation

Like the one and only

creamy,crunchy, chocolate, O-R-E-O

I must admit I ate many Oreo cookies while I was pregnant with both Alex & Abby, so it is no surprise that they LOVE Oreo's as much as I do (with milk of course)!!

Happy 4th Birthday Claire...

Our neighbor turned 4 so we went to their house to celebrate and had a great time going down the BIG water slide!
Ashley, Claire & Alex

Whoa...not a smooth landing. Alex had a huge bruise on his bottom after going down the slide a hunderd + times, but it hasn't seemed to bother him.

Yummy Gelato...

After shopping one night Alex and I met our friends Amanda & Josh and their son, Landon, for gelato one night. They loved it, hopefully we will go back soon!

Hot, Hot, Hot...

It has been one HOT and humid summer. These past two days have been really hot, so we found many ways to cool off. We went to the zoo's splash park with our friends Amy, Jack & Cal

Cal, Alex & Abby

We went to the pool. LOVE this bikini on Abby (thanks Jamie)

We went to music class and had a great time in the air conditioning

s We did go to see Daddy and his friend play Cornhole for the "Cornhole Cup" which benefited the Ronald McDonald House. Daddy didn't win, but he did have a good time! Alex got a purple helicopter painted on his face, he thought he was so cool!
