A day full of adventure!

On a Friday back in July (7/8 to be exact), Rob & I had a fun filled day with our littles.

It started off when I took Brynley to the playground which is one of Brynley's favorite things right now. (Her other favorite thing to do is go to "Minda's house"). We met up with Melinda & her kids there and I chased Brynley around with Roman in the stroller for a solid two hours.

After the playground, we met up with our friends Trung & Virginia for lunch. They have two little boys a bit older than Brynley and we had the pleasure of meeting Virginia's brother as well. Our lunch conversations were great, but the kids were getting antsy and we still wanted to spend time together. We were going to go to a local park, but it started raining before we could get there. We redirected ourselves to the mall where there USED to be an indoor playplace once to find out it was gone. We ended up at the bounce house and the kids had an absolute blast!

I wish I had taken more pictures of the day, but I guess we were having too much fun. Here are the few I managed to snag:

One month

On July 5th, Roman turned one month old.





At one month old, Roman wakes every 2-3 hours at night to eat. He eats quickly and gets right back to sleeping. This is a blessing to me!

Oh my gosh...something about a daughter and her Daddy...makes my heart melt:

These boots were made for walking

Kids have a fascination with putting on other people's shoes. I know I used to do it and now Brynley is following in my footsteps...

Or in this case, her Daddy's...

Independence Day!

I love the 4th of July. Next to Christmas, it is my absolute favorite holiday! However, as the mommy of two tiny tots, it is tough to celebrate. My kids are in bed long before the fireworks start! And although I'm looking forward to doing certain fun things with them as they get older, I don't want the moments to pass too quickly. So I stay focused on the fun we can have now...at this age. Bounce houses, playgrounds, baby pool, singing/dancing, reading books together, playing catch, play dates...these are how my summer days are filled! (and, honestly, anything I do with these two makes my day!)

July 1st

Just a random post with some pictures I took on July 1st.

(Naked babies are too cute!)

Zero

You know I have to do monthly onesie pictures of Roman...beginning with "zero". These photos were taken within the first week that he was home from the hospital.





Since I'm posting these over a month later, he seems so much bigger already!
