She's almost 2!!!!

Addison got a package today...and she found it on her own! I left the box on the table and she used the cooler her Daddy left there as a stool. Excuse her still in her jammies! They didn't want to get dressed today. They need a chill day every once in a while!!

She's got her handed full with two babies!

Diaper changing time!

"I do it!!"

Tonight Brian gave the kids baths. He then dressed Ad while Caden played. When I came up Ad was trying to get in and kept saying, "I do it!" We didn't think she could do it but here's proof that she can. I love how hard her brother was laughing at her!!

Happy 4th of July

We hope you had a great 4th! We certainly did! We had some friends over for dinner and had a blast! We did some fireworks in the street after dark. We made sure we were safe. See? Caden took a nap so that he could stay up late and see the fireworks! This year was the first year he wasn't really scared! He was cautious but not scared. Mary told me before she left for work that sparklers were an awful idea! However, he loved them. Don't worry we were safe with him! See Brian standing right there? I was equally as close (see my leg?!)!

I love these sweet boys!!

He was still a little unsure of the loudness and wanted to hold both hands....and I loved every minute!

I love this sweet boy! I hope next year Addison will be able to join us!

VBS

We had an excellent week at Vacation Bible School. We had over 220 children each day. (up from 140 last year!!!) SIX children were saved this week! I pray that many more will soon come to know Jesus! Each day different children got to hold the flags and the Bible for the pledges. Tonight my sweet boy got chosen to hold the Bible....oh the benefits of your Mommy being the preschool and families ministry director! My 3 loves!

Boys won the offering competition....so...Kristin and I got a pie in the face. There should be video up soon at www.facebook.com/friendlyavenue

Caden sang...and sang....both with his group of preschoolers and the older children. I guess when your Mommy is on staff you think you should be included in every activity.

Vacation Bible School

This week is Vacation Bible School. For the kick off we got a couple ponies and a jumping house! The kids LOVED it! Caden insisted on wearing his cowboy boots. I LOVED IT!!

Okay...just noticed that the pony doesn't look happy but really it was great! Addison LOVED it!! I need to find another picture of her actually riding. I'll leave this one though since it's so funny!!


Sweetest cowboy in town!!

If Caden does it...you know Ad will want to do it too...and will probably try to beat him! She is so independent and I love it! The boots were no exception!
Addison has started talking a lot! I feel sure that I'm just about the only one that can understand her but I don't mind! She is really cute about wanting us all to be together. When Brian's at work she's constant with, "I waaaaant Daddy." If I leave she says, "I waaaaaant Mommy." On father's day when Brian and Caden left for the movies she stood at the door and kept saying, "I waaaaaant Daddy nuhnuh." (Nuh is what she calls Caden!)
