Finally an update.....can you believe it?

Look at me! I am finally updating my blog. Well, I have been quite busy lately. I know that is really hard to believe since I am out on summer break from teaching, but these two wild kids I live with keep me on my toes. I also still can't find the cord to my digital camera. I guess I will just have to use the pictures from my phone. Surprisingly though it took pretty good pictures.

We went to the beach last week and had so much fun. It was the first time in over 7 years we have all gone to the beach together. There were 10 adult and 3 kids all in one house together. I keep wondering what we are going to do next time we do this because both of my sister in laws are expecting. Here are some pictures from our week......


Before we left all of us ladies went and got pedicures. Miss Boss was all about getting her toes painted. I have been painting her toes since our first beach trip when she was 6 weeks old. This was the first time she got them professionally done and she loved it!


We haven't taken Captain Drools to the beach since last summer when he was about 6 month old so this was the first time he really got to play while he was there. For weeks before we left we wondered what he would think. When Miss Boss was his age she hated the ocean (she said it was gross) and ate all the sand. Well, I must say my little man LOVED the beach he loved everything about it. The first thing he did when we walked out there was go straight to the water and just sit in it and giggle. This boy sure does love to giggle. Here are a few pictures of him having fun at the beach. It was very hard to get a picture of him because he was always on the move. He NEVER sits still.


If you have noticed in some of these pictures Captain Drools has a big mark on his eye. He has gone Bonkers lately (as my sister says). He is not just wild he is beyond wild.......Bonkers. Well, he decided to run away from us one day and we just weren't fast enough and he took a header down some outside stairs. Let me just tell you it scared the bejesus out of ALL of us. This boy is going to give me so many scares. I just KNOW it. He is wild, but so incredibly sweet. Here he is after a long day of playing.

We dressed up one night and attempted to get a family picture. Anyone with children know how very hard it is to get a somewhat descent picture. Well, of course I have better ones on my camera (like I said earlier). This is the only one that was taken with my phone.
Here is me and my most favorite guy. I love this picture of us even though I have NO makeup one.

I can't believe I got a good picture of both of my babies. We were about to leave to go to the beach!

Of course, Miss Boss was talking about the beach weeks before we even left. She loves the beach. Her favorite toy at our house is the sandbox so naturally her favorite part about vacation was playing in the sand. Here are some pictures of my favorite girl at the beach!

I love all of the pictures! It looks like you guys had a fabulous time. I can't believe how much the little ones are growing up. It's really hard to believe that Miss Boss will be at school with you this year. It will be lot's of fun getting to hang out with her some in the afternoons.

Enjoy the rest of your summer. Only three weeks left:( I'm kind of ready to go back, but not completely.

I know what you mean by Bonkers. We are totally there too. And I instantly recognized the "At the Zoo" book from sesame street. From the back cover in his sleeping arms. I have memorized that book, we read it so much. Looks like y'all had fun at the beach! I can see so much of you in your kids. :o)
