Dear Summer, Please stay forever!

One of the best perks to being a teacher is SUMMER VACATION! Bryan and I both get to stay home with our boys in June and July. It is so much fun! This is what we've been up to at our house...

We put together their "Jumparoo." They love it! It's like Six Flags for a 5 month old. Their legs are still a little short for it so I had to put a big fat cookbook under their feet. Short legs just like their Mama!

Jordan has started to tripod. What a big boy! Nathan still just falls over...hilarious. He'll get the hang of it soon.

Don't ya love this smile?! Oh, little sweet Nathan can just melt my heart! Nathan's favorite thing to do right now is "talk." He just chattered away with Granny the other night.

Daddy has been reading LOTS of books! Right now, the boys like anything that rhymes. I actually have several of their favorites memorized..."You're my little Lovebug, my cuddly kangaroo, my funny bunny, sweet as honey, all of this is true. You're my punkin' wunkin,' my peaches and my pie, my bread and butter, peanut butter, apple of my eye..."


Nathan and Jordan have both mastered the art of drinking their bottles with their "Milk Maids." Thank goodness! This makes bottle time so easy when I am the only one at home. Oh, and many thanks to Aunt Emily for gifting us with these before the babies were born. Amber, you have to get some of these.


Bryan just came home with a candy surprise for me from Walgreens (the drugstore with the best candy aisle ever)...a whole package of red and pink Starbursts! Who doesn't pick around the yellow and orange Starbursts?! This is the best idea from a candy company yet!
We hope ya'll have a happy 4th!
Much love,
Becca
