Cotton's 3rd Birthday



Last weekend we travelled back to Keller for Ian & London's friend's birthday. Cotton is the son of our old neighbors Dani & Beau. It was so fun to see everyone from the old street and catch up with old friends. The party was at Little Gym. The staff was wonderful with the kids and everyone had such a blast!

PARK DAY!!!



Last week I met up with my friend Cassidy and her little girl Emery at a new park in Fort Worth. Her daughter is 2 months older than London. We had such a fun day playing with the kids. The weather was beautiful...actually quite warm, and I was even wishing I had put sunscreen on Ian & London.

London was so adventuresome...look at her climbing up the steps all by herself and sliding down the slide...all by herself!










Ian was so great with both girls! He was super sweet and so protective of both of them. He really enjoyed pushing them in the tire swing.








It was definitely fun times had by all!!







Happy Monday Ya'll!!

Ian and London's new FAVORITE book!



Justin received this book about animals for his birthday from my parents several years ago. Ian found the book the other night and has become a huge fan! Of course London can't stand the fact that bubby gets to sit in daddy's lap all by himself.





This has become the nightly ritual right before bed. The two kids crawl up in Justin's lap and have a serious lesson in animals. You would think the book was WAY over Ian's head, but he is totally into it. He is spouting out facts about bugs and animals I didn't even know. It is amazing to see the things that child retains. Talk about a sponge. It is like he hears something one time and it is ingrained in his little, or rather large memory. Things like remembering the fact that a dragon fish is not "actually" a fish but rather an eel with a huge set of teeth on it. "Mommy, I do not want to be swimming in the ocean with one those things!" Who the heck knows what a dragon fish is?...Ian does!

None the less, I love seeing the special times Justin has with our children. He is truly a wonderful husband, friend, and daddy!





Happy Monday Ya'll!
