Weekend Update

I'm having storage issues with my photos so I don't have a lot of pictures to share until we get my hard drive figured out and the photos moved over. Until then, I'll probably be blogging few and far between. Or without photos!

Anyway, we got new chairs delivered this past week. At first I thought it might be too much for this room, but now I REALLY love having them in here. It feels cozy.

We had a nice start to the holiday weekend. Jason got home early on Friday (about 2:30p) and we have him home until Tuesday night. We had a birthday party this morning and we're hoping to hit the pool sometime this weekend, since it just opened, in between the forecasted rain showers.
This photo is a picture of Ethan during his speech therapy with Stephanie, his therapist. He's been making a lot of new sounds lately too!

Not only that, but he's been pulling himself a lot too. Mostly he's pulling up onto his knees to look into the toy boxes but every now and then he'll pull up on to his feet. It's so exciting to see.

Jack woke up this morning a bit stuffed up, so I asked him how he was feeling, and this was his response: "My sniffer is not working properly. All that comes out is snuffles. I keep trying to smell stuff but it's not working." I just love the things that come out of his mouth.

I hope you all have a fantastic holiday weekend!!! Cheers to all those who have sacrificed for and have given service to our country.

Having a Great Visit with Aunt Delly

I know it's been a VERY long time since I've last posted, but it's hard when you have company in town. Plus, I've been especially exhausted this past week. Jack get's so excited when we have visitors that he gets even crazier than normal! September should be fun when we have Daddy, Granny and Grandma in town. I've been continuously changing up our great room bookshelves, so I thought I would post a photo for you to see. If anyone has more ideas on how to make it look better, let me know. These are some pictures of Jack at gymnastics. He has gotten so much better at this club. They do a lot more strengthening stuff than the old place. Plus they have an older boys class so they don't just teach girly stuff at this age. It's been fun to see him do so well. Of course, a lot of time he still goofs around, trying to fall off stuff, but for the most part he's pretty good at staying on task. Last week they did the monkey bars and he LOVED it and was...

Master Closet Overhaul

 We have this ridiculously large walk-in closet in our master bedroom and over time it has been overtaken with STUFF. So I decided I was tired of looking at the mess and it was time to clean it out and up.  Take a look...  I can't believe it went from this... To this!  I love walking in here now and actually find myself looking for reasons to go into my closet.  Along with just weeding out old clothes and items I no longer wore or needed (you should see the pile of stuff that was donated!) I made some changes to the room too.   One of them was my shoe racks. I've long wanted a tall shoe rack to go alongside the built in shelves but I knew it would never get off my husband's to-do list so I took matters into my own hands!!  It's not exactly what I had envisioned but it works and I'm happy with it. Thanks Target for the shelves.  Over the past few years I have developed a deep love for scarves and now own several....
 We have traveled around the SE for lacrosse tournaments in the past but this year we had the opportunity to travel to Denver, CO for one. I think it was one of my favorite. We tried to make it a family vacation as well, so we traveled in early the day before and spent some time exploring.  We headed down to Rock Park in Castle Rock and did a little hiking.  See that big rock in the background? Yup, the boys climbed all the way to the top. Ethan and I made it to the base of the rock while Jason, Jack and Wyatt climbed up top.  Ethan and I messing around waiting on the other boys.  Photos of the boys up top.  Our first game was an evening game, so we had most of the day to explore and get used to the altitude (which definitely got to the boys once they got on the field). The fun part of having good friends on the same lacrosse team is you get to explore together. We all drove up to Red Rocks to expl...
