{iPhone Rewind} :: October

Can't he just stay little forever?

When all the furniture is out of the house and you have endless boxes with which to play...

Playing in the fields/hills of Herman Baker Park! We had to be out of the house when the house went on the market, so we got an Airbnb for the weekend and got to enjoy this fun park in Sherman.

Reading with Daddy

"Working" Haha- he really wanted to work like Daddy

We headed to Granny's to play outside while the inspector came to the house. Eli and Maddie LOVED the sand box!

Aiden was super serious about sliding

Cute girlie :)

Eli and Grandpa :)

Maddie and Grandpa :)

While we were looking at rental properties in Virginia, we definitely saw a place with a bathroom in the kitchen. The toilet was right next to the fridge...

Those darn cows were running around Melissa again...

Basically our life the last few weeks...boxes and Legos.

He's so relaxed haha.

"I want to snuggle with you, Mama." Absolutely, Baby Girl.

We got to see another hot air balloon!

Awwww.....

Vacuuming. And looking good doing it.

When you call out for Aiden and hear giggling...he's not very good at hiding :)

Eli showing his true feelings about wearing his eye patch. Haha- sorry kid! {the patching and checkered patterns are supposed to help him strengthen his eye until he is old enough for vision therapy}

Reading time with the crazies :)

When you wake up in the morning, having felt really cold all night, only to realize that a nameless toddler girl had turned the A/C down to 50 degrees so it ran all night long. Because she's tall enough to reach. And has zero self control. Sigh. 

Having a freezer full of homemade popsicles is a must for us during the summer. Our favorites are watermelon and mango/pineapple. Super easy, and healthy too. Frozen fruit for the win!

Stuff that popsicle in there!

He loves his stickers :)

And he loves his puppy dog :)

We gave the boys haircuts, and then Eli and Maddie wanted to do Mommy and Daddy's hair

Candyland is entertaining with these kiddos haha

She has the patience of a saint.

It's 100 degrees outside, but he insists on wearing a beanie

Painting with water is always a hit!

And little guy gets to "color" ... we're still trying to keep the crayons out of the mouth, but he insists on being like the big kids :)

When you need the entire hallway to play with your LEGOS

My little artists

He just wishes he was a little taller...

Our sweet friends Lauren and Miguel sent a fun gift for our little readers!

Daddy gets the royal spa treatment

My Maddie Girl :)

He loves ALL the water!

Not so sure about this grasshopper friend...

"Daddy, do you want to build LEGOS with me?"

He will never be too big for snuggles

Morning reading time!

Can we just take a moment and mourn that it feels like 93 at almost 10 o'clock at night?

My sweet girl has latched on to the idea that she was once frozen as a teeny tiny embryo. She will often yell this out in excitement :)

Cuties :)

My co-workers are cuter than yours :)

I think our anniversary plate turned out pretty good!

Show me your muscles!

This is by far our favorite Kiwi Crate- help the chameleon "eat" the bugs :)
