Life is a beach!

This past week we spent a week in seaside Florida with my family. Here are the highlights of our week.

 Our house was amazing. I could sit on the porch for days! And the kids loved having a pool! Mimi did good! 

Aiden loves the ocean and has zero fear. 

Aiden is so cute. Before we left he talked about the beach everyday. His papaw gave him $10 to spend and he told us all he wanted to buy was sand. Ha! 

We had a blast and can't wait to go back! 

Catching up

I've slacked on the whole blog thing lately but wanted to document some favorite times over the past couple of weeks. 

We have been having play dates on Thursdays and it's been so fun because all the kids are the same age. These two are only one month apart! 

The three older kiddos!

Papaw bought a boat so we took aiden for a ride one night. He loved it but mommy was a nervous wreck. 

We took an afternoon cruise on the belle of Louisville 

Danced at the street party 

Loved her swing 

Swam with friends 

Attended a birthday party 

Went for yogart because he slept all night in his big boy bed 

Went to the horse show 

And played at the park. 

It's been a busy, wild and fun couple of weeks! 

Playing around

Ryan gave me a new camera for mother's day/birthday/anniversary/X-mas, you know all the big holidays combined! HA!

I am going to take a class but have been playing around a little with it lately. Aiden isn't so keen on taking pictures these days but Ava just loves the camera!

 

 

July 4th

We had an amazing 4th of July this year! We spent the weekend hanging with friends and family, eating and playing in the pool. 

Aiden and I ended the weekend with a trip to target, Starbucks and breakfast at wild eggs! 

Is it sad that I bribed my two year old with Starbucks to go to bed the night before?! 

My favorite little man! 

8 months

Ava turned 8 months old on June 25. I've been so busy I haven't had a lot of time to blog but wanted to remember her moments at this age. 

You are sitting up without any support!

You are starting to put weight on your legs a little more. 

You aren't crawling yet but love to play on your stomach and will roll to get a toy you want. 

You laugh all the time at your brother  

You babble/talk a lot. 

You love to play with your toys and will sit and play for 30-40 min sometimes. 

Everything goes in your mouth and I mean EVERYTHING!  

You don't really care for baby food and we have a hard time getting you to eat. It's a chore. 

But you still love you bottle! 

You are even holding your own bottle now. 

You have slept all night a few nights but most nights you still get up to eat. We are working on this! Hopefully soon!
