July 2013

We have been doing really well. It's definitely chaotic at times with three kids, but we are all happy, getting fed, showering at least every other day and doing a few activities. We had a fun Fourth of July. We had some people over and Cameron smoked ribs. It was nice for our friends to meet Anna for the first time. Presley and David had a ball all afternoon- running in the sprinkler and eating at their leisure. After everyone left, Presley was so sad (and really tired) and said that was the funnest party.
 Their cute Fourth of July outfits from G!
 This is Anna's future BFF, Cora, our friend's daughter. They are just 5 days apart.
 The weather here is just wonderful. We sat outside Saturday morning while the kids played in the sun.
 One of our new favorite activities is putt-putt. 
 Anna is continuing to grow as a good rate. Her cheeks have filled out quite nicely! Her hair is just precious- it gets so curly after her bath.
 These kids still love noodles and spaghetti of any kind. David loves putting the ziti through his fingers and eating them that way.
 I've also learned that David is very much a creature of habit! We used to do pj's after bath downstairs. Now that Anna is here, it's just easier for me to dress them upstairs. David was so upset with this change and insisted on walking downstairs in his towel (after I had already put on his jammies) like we normally do. 
 My pretty girl! This is one of my favorite outfits from Presley.
 I planned a Family Day for Cameron's company this past Friday at a local park. Presley had a ball playing with all the other kids on the playground and running around all morning. I had to bathe them right as we walked in the house they were so dirty and dusty. David loves to be outside and chased around his balls all day.
 Anna started doing tummy time and David and Presley love doing it with her. Presley cheers her on while David just lays next to her and says Night Night.
Attempt at picture of all three in their coordinating outfits.
 Since I can't take them to a pool by myself (and there's really not many public ones in Colorado anyway), we found a splash park today that was a lot of fun. David hadn't really been to a splash park since he was like 6 months old. He didn't like when it would suddenly shoot up in his face. He loved collecting water in his bucket, though.

Anna is just precious! I love that Presley cheers her on during tummy time, that is some hard work:) Looks like you are doing great Rachel! Not surprised, you're such a good mom:)
