OVER A MONTH

Well...It has officially been OVER A MONTH since I last blogged!! I guess things have been a little crazy. Two trips, lots of YL stuff, two busy little ones, and putting our house on the market will really do it to you!! We have been having a super fun summer. Lots of walks to the park = sanity and time for mommy to breathe without someone needing something. A few visits to the local pool, which Isaac calls the "cool". And many hours spent playing in the back yard. It is WONDERFUL to be able to be outside so much. As crazy is this time is, there isn't a day that goes by without a feeling of deep gratitude for these two little people. They do a great job of driving me CRAZY...but they also do a great job of making me laugh. Here's a recap of some things we have done over the past month.


Cincinnati Visit: At the end of June I spent a week in Cincinnati with the kids. Dan joined us for half the time. It was a wonderful visit. We did lots of fun things: picnics at the playground with Anya (what Isaac calls my mom), lots of walks, visits with friends, story time, baby pool, runs with my sister, and more. We finished up the week with my dad's wedding. Quite an event.
Hair Cut: This whole hair cut business is starting to get really tricky. I had to give Isaac about 10 packs of fruit snacks for him to sit still, his hair is REDICULOUSLY thick I feel like I am hacking away at a wild bush, and really I have no idea what I am doing. All that considered, it went pretty well. I miss the long curls, but I know they'll be back before I know it. :)
4th of July: This year we had a GREAT 4th of July. We went to the Wheaton parade with some friends and Isaac LOVED it!! Then we had 2 other couples and thier kids over that evening for a BBQ. It was pretty insane. 6 kids 3 years old and younger. Let's just say it was an adventure.
Michigan Beach Vacation: We have some friends that own a house up in Michigan on the BEACH!! They let us use it for a week. It was wonderful. We relaxed and didn't leave the house at all. Just spent most our time on the beach with the kiddos. It was a GIFT!!!

HOUSE FOR SALE: Here's the link to our house. Pass it on to anyone that might be interested.
