Welcome, Baby Violet!

Amy, Rex and Will welcomed baby Violet to the world on July 18th!  She is a very sweet little girl, with lots of hair!  The girls were pretty excited to meet her, but annoyed that we would only let them hold her for a couple minutes each.

Proud cousin

So tiny!

Family of four!

We got to spend some fun time with Will while Amy and Rex got their bearings.  Jamie took the three kids to the Flint Children’s Museum, and then we goofed around at our house for the evening.  Such a sweet boy!

The future looks good

Giving the big bad wolf a piece of her mind!

Keeping things in balance

Ready to save the day

Hanging tough


Sir Elton Will

Friends forever

We had fun with slime.  Maggie and I learned that it
does not mix well with hair

We were able to see the tail end of Aqua Fest in St. Clair Shores last weekend - free pony rides, a petting zoo and a corny magician!  All followed by a delicious dinner at Grandma and Grandpa's, and a dip in the new pool!

Hold me closer tiny horsey

Poke a goat

Riding proud

Balloon animal.. that lasted 2 hours before it got popped!

Like a natural
I was happy to see the "tortoise and the hare" hanging out

The bunk beds were a huge success!  The girls really love them!  Maggie enjoys the “privacy” of the upper bunk, and Evie really likes being in her own big-girl bed.  They sleep really well together, and I think it’s comforting for them to have each other through the night.  Evie is doing pretty well with night-time potty training.  I usually take her once or twice through the night whenever I wake up, and that seems to do the trick most nights!

When you need to go to bed...

Here's a few others from the past couple weeks:

Pinata fun at cousin Hannah's birthday party!

Adopting toy puppies and making dog tags

Still being Daddy's "helper" throughout the camp day... poor Jamie

At least she's happy!

Finally got Maggie to eat a wrapped taco instead of
a la carte... big deal

Cinnamon rolls at the Farmers Market with Mama

Happy-go-lucky!
