Summer is going too fast!

Our summer, as I am sure that everyone else's, is cruising right along...too fast if you ask me!

S has been playing on two softball teams this summer and Thursday was the last game for one of the teams. P and Miss M have made it to most of these games, so we went to cheer them on in their final game and snap a few team pics. This also happened to mark Miss M's 5 week birthday, so of course I had to take a couple pics of her too! :)

The team's end of the season photo. P is really sad the season is over. She and her friend's J and A, along with Miss M, had a really good time watching the games. We are hoping they play Fall ball as well!

This is their "tough" picture.
One of their fans...Go Daddy, go!
Little Miss M, 5 weeks old. Note she had to put on her cute little leg warmers from TR2 at the game because it was getting a little chilly....actually I believe that TR2 is responsible for this whole stylish outfit! Thanks for keeping her dressed so well!

Love,

P, S, Little N, and Miss M

Our kids

Just a few cute pics of the kids.

Miss M is just over 4 weeks in this picture.

Both of my kids sleep like this. I went into Little N's room last night and he was still sleeping like this, even at two and a half!

Cousins

Last week Little N and M's cousins stopped by for a visit on their way home from Como Zoo. We took this opportunity to snap a few pics. We haven't been very good about capturing this group yet.

I swear, we did not help them hold hands. They just did!

Little Miss S(a little over 9 weeks) and Little Miss M(a little over 4 weeks).

All 4 cousins....hard to get one with them looking much less looking cute! :)

4th of July fun

This Sunday we went to the Margo's for a bbq with some friends. It was a Margo filled weekend, which was fun since we hadn't seen them much lately. The kids all played outside, we grilled, and then ended the night with some sparkler fun. Another first for Nathan and he sure loved it!

Have a great week everyone!

Love,

P, S, Little N, and Little Miss M

Happy 4th of July!

Hope everyone is having a fun weekend! So far we got up and had a visit from some of the V family, S' Uncle D and his wife and two boys. They came to meet our new Little M. Then we were off to Little N and M's very first parade! We went to the Richfield 4th of July parade. Little N was very excited when they threw candy. He said that was his favorite part. Little M was pretty unimpressed. She mostly slept in her stroller and hung out with her Daddy.

And here is Little Miss M's 2nd 4th of July outfit, due to a little blowout after the parade!

Cute baby feet!

We are off to the fireworks tonight and Little N can hardly wait!

4 weeks old!

I can't believe how fast time flies! Our Little Miss M is already 1 whole month old! Here she is chilling outside by the pool with Mommy and Little N.

Whew!

While we sure had fun last week, I think we were all a little tired when all the fun and festivities were over! One afternoon, Little N dropped his McQueen car under the counch and went to get it. After a couple minutes, I asked him, " Hey N, did you get McQueen?" No answer....so I looked under my footrest and there was my little guy sleeping on the hardwood floor!

Friends and Family

Some very good friends of ours, the L family, came to Jeff's wedding celebration from St. Louis and stayed for the week. We had so much fun seeing them! One day we went to see the new Guthrie Theater. Here are some pics:
Here is the view from the balcony out back of the theater.

This is a piece of glass you stand on and it looks like you are floating in the air. Little N was testing it out.
Little N and EL, new friends!

The escalators at the Guthrie are really neat. They go up many floors. Here is everyone walking down the really long escalator because it was off!

Here is Uncle J with his new niece. We were very excited to have J and BB here to spend time with us and the kids. See you soon guys!

Love,

P, S, Little N, and Little Miss M
