Swim Lessons

For the past week and a half the boys took swim lessons together. This was Logan's first time having swim lessons.
It took Logan awhile to warm up to having swim lessons, but towards the end he was doing amazing. Here Logan is practicing on the step, waiting for his turn.

Blake knew how to swim, but he needed to work on his stroke. He improved greatly and swims very well now.

Sadie was so good during swim lessons. She tried to get in the water a few times, but did a very good job of watching her brothers.

Logan swimming on his own. If Logan would start kicking he would be a great little swimmer.

Both of the boys loved their teacher Kurt.

First Cavity

Blake actually loves going to the dentist and does really well. We had just recently changed dentist and the kids no longer go to a children's dentist, which I am sad about because they were so good. On his check up this week we found out that Blake had his first cavity. They asked me how he would do getting a filling, I told them he would be fine.

I was so proud of Blake he did such a good job while they fix his cavity. When it was over he would stutter from his mouth being numb and the cotton they put in his mouth. When I asked Blake how he felt after it was over Blake replied, "My mouth just feels biiiii, bbbb, bbi, bii" We both started laughing because he couldn't talk. Blake now continues to laugh at himself because he couldn't say "big" right after his appointment. I'm just glad he doesn't have a fear of the dentist after getting shot in his mouth, and his tooth drilled into.

Playing in the fountains

I went to the mall with my mom when we were done shopping we let the boys play in the fountains.

I love these fountains and so do my kids. They had a blast playing and I had fun watching them.

Sadie's Cake

Tonight after dinner I decided to let the kids eat Sadie's birthday cake. We just ate the cupcakes the night before and still had her big cake.

The boys just took a little pick at the cake,

But Sadie went to town chowing down on it!

She was so happy eating her cake.

I finally had to take the cake away after she had eaten most of it by herself. Sadie defiantly has a sweet tooth.

4th of July

We had an exciting and busy 4th of July this year. We started today out with our niece baby blessing.

Later that night we went to my parent to celebrate Sadie birthday and do fireworks. I love this picture because she is giving me her sneaky look before she tries to eat her cake.

Logan loved the sparkler, he scared me because he wasn't too careful as he twirled them around.

It was a long, but very fun day as we spent time with loved ones. The kids were so tired they went in the other room to lay down.
