Hot Summer Fun!

Well I am officially a part time employee which means more time at home with austin. I am so excited to get another day a week for our fun adventures. I never imagined I would love being a mommy and a wife this much. I actually just love doing the day to day mommy things, planning a daily adventure with austin, and getting supper ready and eating as a family. It is funny how much I enjoy the simple things. Now the tough part is to control my spending habits but I think we are done with our major expenses. We have recently laid hard wood, getting our kitchen cabinets redone and landscaped the back yard. So since we are not moving I get to work less!! Works for me. Anyways we have been doing lots of fun things this summer like pool, Braves Games, Swimming lessons, birthday parties, and fun with friends. Summer is a fun time with an 18 month old we just wish it wasn't so HOT!!! Anyways hope everyone is having a good summer and here are some pictures from the past week!


Not sure what austin is doing but my guess is he is whining about something not going his way. He and zach got to go to gattittown after swimming lessons last week b/c they are doing so good. They go under water and "swim" like pros!

Austin not digging all the pink at Maddi's first birthday party at Harry the Potter. Austin tried to paint but since his attention span is about 20 seconds around mad chaos it got about three strokes. Oh well it will be his first masterpiece.

Too funny!! Austin decided to rock out in the den the other night. It was too funny b/c he was trying to keep us entertaained to prevent going to bed. It actually worked for about 30 minutes.

Zach and Austin intently watching the Braves game. They did great! They made it all the way to the end and even trooped through to the fireworks that started at like 10:15!! Such troopers! Also did I mention it was quite hot but it didn't phase those two!

And finally my baby is growing up. We go to pump it up some and they have these huge slides and last time austin went up "by himself" for the first time, but I was right behind him. At the Braves game mommy's don't get to go up so he and zach went all by themselves. I actually thought I might cry! Anyways they made it up most the way and then too sweet little boys went and helped them up. His face comig down was priceless but I was so excited for him I didn't get it on camera!! Oh they grow up to fast!

Putt putt and pool!!

This weekend we took austin toplay putt putt for the first time. He rode the go carts and also played some games. It was just so gorgeous friday that we thought a fun outdoor activity would be great. We a nice time and I think he enjoyed it. We also took him to the pool sunday and after two hours we basically had to drag him out kicking and screaming. But anyways it was a great weekend and we are enjoying our summer so far!! Hope everyone is too!

Enjoying a go cart ride with daddy!
Going after the ball on the last hole!

Uncle T and the race!!

So Uncle T did the triathalon here in ridgeland this weekend. A 1/2 mile swim, 2o something mile bike and 6.2 mile run- yes all in the same day let alone in like 2 hours. GO UNCLE T!!! So I went and cheered him on saturday morning. He did great and mommy thinks she is gonna do it one year!! We'll see the run she and bike she is okay with but not the swim and not all right after each other!! But oh well we had a great time and uncle T helped babysit me after while mommy and daddy had couples massages and a good dinner at Ticos for their 3 year anniversary! Oh and check out my shirt it says Go Uncle T mommy made it!

Austin took to Riley immediately so corey and I took them to a Braves game on saturday and then bowling on sunday! They had a great time and wore each other out as much as corey and I.
