Christopher is 4

I can't believe my "little" guy has turned 4 this month. We celebrated with a fun ice cream party at a splash park. Christopher loved having all his friends come and the attention he received. He's such a little social guy.

Happy Birthday Big Guy!!!

Splash Pads

It has been SO HOT around here, the only way to survive is to get in the water. We've been swimming and playing at splash parks A LOT this summer. We've been to a few different ones. We recently went to a really fun park up in Anthem and the kids loved it. The splash area was a little lame (for my liking), but the park was amazing. It had lakes for fishing, a HUGE play area for the kids, and a choo choo train ride. We had a great time.

Speaking of swimming, my sister moved down here this month and we've been loving swimming with the cousins. They have a really fun community pool near their house and we've been there a couple times. Yesterday Christopher said he wanted to jump from the diving board, and we let him. We were all amazed at how gutsy this little guy is. He jumped several times and swam to the side of the pool all alone. We were a little concerned at first because we couldn't be in the pool to help him to the side, but he did it by himself. He's also been going down the big slide and swimming out of the pool alone. I guess all those years of swim school have finally paid off.

Mother's Day

We had a low key mother day, but it was just perfect. Cory let me sleep in and made me breakfast. Later that night we went to my in-laws and celebrated mother's-day and Cory's birthday all at once. (Cory turned 28 the day before). This is me and the kids right before we left to church.

 Clarissa is our little princess!! She is so fun to have around.
