Cutest Beach Bum EVER

This has to be one of my favorite pictures from this year's vacation. Could he be any cuter?!

Six Flags

I always get a free ticket to Six Flags every year for the Read to Succeed program. This year, Camden participated and got a free ticket too. So, all we needed was a free ticket for Daddy. Enter Facebook and we were set! The weather was beautiful and we had an awesome day! Camden(and Mommy) was not a fan of the Screaming Eagle. His favorite was the Log Flume which he and Daddy rode twice. We also played for a bit in the water at Hurricane Harbor. We were exhausted, but definitely made the most of our free tickets. I told Todd, "Just think, we get to do this again in 4 years when Jaden is old enough." He just gave me a less than thrilled look.

It's not very nice when your husband laughs at you for getting dizzy on a kiddie ride....

Or when you spend 10 minutes looking and you still can't find the car in the parking lot..

Then, he walks straight to it...Must be that Marine training! 

Proud Momma

It makes this momma's heart so proud to get several compliments on this boy's manners and behavior! He and I were at the dentist today for his second visit to get cavities filled. He is very apprehensive about the dentist, but is so brave and does whatever they ask him. We love Dr. Lenahan and her staff! So proud of you, Little Man!

More strep...

I didn't know babies could get strep, but apparently so. Baby bear got sick at Carens today, so Mommy went to get him. He had been pretty cranky the past couple days and Emmy was diagnosed with strep on Monday. So, I called the doctor's office and they wanted to see him. Sure enough, he tested positive for strep. Poor little guy! Lots of snuggles for J Bear.

Who needs a fork anyway?

It was alst minute decision to go to Pasta House for lunch after  church. We had no bib, no cup, no baby utensils, but at least we had wet wipes!  Watching Jaden eat spaghetti was just too funny. I had to get out my phone and capture it. He finally abandoned the fork and just used his hands. He is too cute! 

Still Best Buddies

Camden and Lincoln can not see each other for months and still act like best buds when they get together! Love that they are still friends. They had so much fun playing at Teamsters today!

Year #2 for the Blueberry

Lincoln invited Camden to go to VBS again with him this summer. Camden's favorite part, of course, is riding the bus, which is called the Blueberry. Well, this year they still rode the blue bus, but it's name as not the Blueberry. I am pretty sure the boys will always refer to that bus as the Blueberry no matter what name it is given. 

Friends and BoyMoms

I am so lucky to be friends with the girls I work with. Michelle and I took the boys to Tot Time at the new Lemay Park Pavilion. They had so much fun, but wore these mommies out!

Chocolate, Chocolate, Chocolate

Yesterday, we toured the Chocolate, CHocolate, Chocolate factory with Nick and Emmy and had some yummy Gus' pretzels. When it came my turn to get a sample, I said, "NO, thank you. I don't like chocolate. The lady in charge of the tour looked at me as if she didn't believe me and said, "They let you in here?"

Donut Date

This Monday morning, it was just me and my buddy running errands, so we had an impromptu donut date. I love this super talkative, very energetic boy and his imagination.  I am blessed to be his momma! 

Coach by Default

So, Todd ended up as the head coach for Camden's YMCA tball team this summer. Dane's dad who coached last year, decided not to coach since Dane broke his arm right before the season started. So guess who was tagged as it?  Daddy dearest. We think he will do just great!

Photo Shoot Fail

The pictures tell it all really...
