Swimming and more

Everett has been in swim class for 2 weeks now and he loves it, but there was one thing missing....his friends! On Monday Gavin, Lincoln, and Macy joined him and these babies will have 2 weeks of swim together. Too fun!
And here are some photos of my handsome little boy from the other day...
This wild man got stuck under one of the barstools....
Finally! The park by our house opened...
I love this little guys smile!
And we had a great time at the wedding of Don and Rachael Nelson last weekend. Jeremy and Don have been good friends for years and Jeremy had the honor of being Don's best man. Congrats guys!

June

June is always a busy month and this year is no exception. We have had such a busy (but fun) week! Everett started swim lessons. Jeremy and him were so brave to swim in the cold water on Monday. Last weekend we had such a great time at Gavin and Lincoln's birthday party!
Everett loved the jumper!(...so did his mom and dad!)
Jace and Quinn took a little time to warm up to it, but were bouncing away in no time.
This little guy fell asleep on his dad's shoulder, which never happens! The jumper must have worn him out!
We also had a little game night last weekend to celebrate my 28th birthday. My sweet husband put up decorations and got me a cake with one of my favorite board games on it!
And one of my favorite things about having game night was getting all the kids together! It is so fun to see how different they all are and watch them interact. Thank you to everyone who helped me celebrate my birthday!

9 months and counting...

My little tiny baby boy, is 9 months old this week. He now weighs 20.5 pounds (50th percentile) and is 29 inches long (75th percentile). (Doesn't he look chubbier than this!) He walks around furniture, he can pull himself to standing on almost anything now, and he started crawling about a week ago. We even had to lower his crib after we found him standing during a few of his naps! Here are a few recent pictures....

And a few (very short) crawling videos....

The Beach

We had so much fun this weekend! First we went to the beach with the Wares and then we headed over to the Whiles for some swimming.

Everett LOVED the pool and may be the next Micheal Phelps...
Lincoln drove his water car around for awhile... Jeremy took Everett out to the water during his first beach trip...
Gavin...right before he started eating the sand!...boys! Em with the babies... Everett and Gavin "sharing" like always!

Neighbor-ly Fun

We have such wonderful neighbors! We are so lucky! Tonight we got together and had a little BBQ. Everett was in bed before the BBQ started, but at least we got one picture of him and Taylor!

Mother's Day

Yes we know it was last week, but some of us had to work! So we celebrated tonight with dinner with my wonderful mom and family. I had great first mother's day and I can't wait to use my spa gift card and wear all my new clothes! Our pictures didn't turn out very well and this is the best one I could find. Oh well....Happy Mother's Day!

Too Much Fun

Everett did this the whole time I tried to feed him dinner tonight. It was funny until food went flying everywhere!

...and (Angie and Emily) I am so proud of myself for finally figuring out this comment thing! Now I hope I can figure out how to read them....
