Suhhhh-MORE...

Summer lovin’ is drifting away… I keep seeing posts’ of my friends and family sharing their summer vacation photos, their 4th of July events and their last minute vacation plans etc. and I am wondering where the heck did summer go? We started off soo strong with a trip to Bisebee, another few trips to Phoenix, pool and pool parties on a regular basis (and by regular I mean there was one week we went EVERYDAY!).  And now I am looking at July (to me, the peak month of summer) and summer is almost OVER, dun dun dunnnnnnn.  The 4th of July was filled with BBQing, pool time and homemade peach pie, but no fireworks as we live in a state that’s dryer than the Sahara,  and we seem to have an over abundance of pyromaniacs living amongst us, thus the ban of a spectacular glittery night…sooooo, we all were in bed by 9PM…yikes! Early July we threw Dad a cocktail party for his 55th, and the guy doesn’t even look a day over 40! The kids are growing like weeds, and Kapri is starting to walk (she’s been trying for a month now). With only a month or less to go I am hoping to get a few more adventures in before the official season ends…Here are a few pics of the kids, cause they are too darn cute, and it makes my posts more interesting J

Playin' some ball!

Happy Baby

I love when they play together!

Hello & Goodbye to Sum•mer

sum·mer 1 ˈsəmər/ noun 1 .  the warmest season of the year, in the northern hemisphere from June to August and in the southern hemisphere from December to February. I just wanted to give myself a second to really think about this thing called summer. Anyone else think this definition is just a little bit vague? It's that time of year where we get all excited to have ZERO schedule, endless electronics, the chance to travel and cram in all of the fun you planned for all year long. Then when this so called "summer" ends, you feel bamboozled, like someone just waved that 4th of July pie you went to that party to specifically eat, right in front of your face only to look...not eat. Like seriously, it was here, right in front of my face, and now... it's gone. Now, now we pack lunch every night, we get our homework in (which I don't even understand), we figure out which parent is going to be the taxi for the day, we actually have to ...

Giving Thanks...Kapri's Surgery and Recovery.

You know that sinking, useless, hopeless feeling you get when one of your children are sick or hurt? Those feelings were almost more than I could take when I went to take Kapri in for her 15 month check up on Tuesday morning and ended up in surgery Tuesday night... A little over two weeks ago Kapri began to limp on her right leg and after noticing I kept an eye on it and it would differ day to day.  Sometimes it wasn't even noticeable as she would run back and forth from her brother or just in her play.  Other times is was so noticeable I found myself holding her more than I ever had (after she learned how to walk).  I decided that it was time to call the Dr. and see what his thoughts were.  So Friday (18th) we got her in. The typical questions like, did she fall, was she pushed at school, does she have a temp, etc.  Since NONE of these symptoms seemed to be the case he wanted me to just keep her on Motrin and since she had her 15 month check up on Tuesday (...

She Turned 7!

SEVEN, she did it again... who does she think she is trying to get another year older on us. In all seriousness, she is SEVEN. Like, what happened to 5 and 6? Let me tell you what 7 looks like on my little Pripri... Just a few things about this girl 1. Guess who her favorite person is...duh. Micah 2. She is soooo much more compassionate and caring than I could have ever imagined. 3. She might be 7, however her attitude screams teen! She is sensitive but oh so brave and she is never afraid to take on new adventures! 4. Her best friend is still, you guessed it, Maggie. 5. Right now she is playing softball (second season) and is having a ton of fun. Cheerleading is still on her brain, but for now, we will stick with this. 6. When she laughs, you can't help but laugh with her. Her laugh alone will make you light up. 7. Her favorite things include: Unicorns, Bear (her pink one), Unicorns, Mermaids, those fake glasses (see pic below), her American Girl Doll (pic above), Uni...
