Moments Mommy Captured: 6/24/2013

Hello again! I hope you all had a marvelous weekend! Here are a few pictures from our last week or so…

We’ve been having some beautiful days lately and are spending a LOT of time out on our deck. The kids (and mommy) love the fresh air!In addition to playing with his cars, Baylen keeps busy making lots of concoctions in his water table. And of course he gets pretty tired playing and takes drink breaks when he needs them!The girls have been enjoying the stroller quite a bit more now that they’re a little older, and we’ve been going to parks almost every day the weather allows. On the days when I want to ensure Baylen takes a real long nap in the afternoon, we start at one park knowing that he’ll want to run his little legs all the way across that soccer field to the school playground. Sneaky MOM!My little conductor!You’ll note that Baylen’s cars are with him at EVERY park endeavor. Those things don’t leave this kid’s side! Grandma was here last week for a bit and we made a trip to the pool…again, Baylen was more interested in his cars than the water. Grandma was happy to zoom them around with him!Baylen’s new favorite breakfast cereal is Special K, just like Daddy! He can’t get enough of it! Emersyn and Mckinley continue to grow bigger every day. Literally, every day they wake up they seem to weigh a little more when I pick them up! They are also starting to look a LOT alike. While they are identical, their head shapes were so different because of the way they went down the birth canal, but as their heads grow and form they are looking more similar by the day! They are liking their Bumbos a little more now! It’s fun to see their little necks getting so strong!I tried to sneak in a picture of all three kids before bedtime, but Baylen was NOT having it. We tried. The girls fussy time is right before bedtime, which also happens to be suppertime. Babywearing is how we make it through!Uncle Joey came over last week to play in a yard games league with Jake, and since its basically part of the territory when you step foot in our house to help, he was happy to jump in. We LOVE Uncle Joe!My dear friend Jenna came into town and stayed with us for the weekend. It was such a treat having her here! That does it for the weekly recap!

Have a great week, everybody!
