Summer Fun with Cousins

This summer has been full of  cousin fun!
We have gotten to see Jax at least every other week at the pool!

It is so fun to watch Bethany with Miles, "ba'y, ba'y!"

One fun morning, Aunt Amanda set up the sprinkler for us, so fun!

The Browns have hung out with us once a week.  
walk to the lake

in this heat,outside play is limited to a few minutes first thing

But, whoa, lots of art!!

This was one of my absolute favorites, Eric Carle day! I did the first one to give them an idea; they took it from there!

One of the good things has been that I can plan to get something done because the kids know each other so well.  One day Princess Evie helped me clean the toilets. 

These two, sitting still seldom, but fun together always!

These two remain two peas in a pod!  Art and each other, it's a good morning!

Camden and Bethany may not have their own twin, but the way the six work together is sweet to watch!

16 Months

Our Bethie girl

At 16 months, you are a full blown walker.  You are not a big talker, but you are starting to mimic more and more.  You have your few words:  mama, dadda, more, dog, woof woof, uh-uh, oh.  You love books.  You want to keep up with your siblings.  You love playing outside, exploring everything, and giving big hugs.  You maintain your easy-going spirit, unless you are hungry.  We love that you are our sweet, cuddly, independent little one!
Here are some classic Bethie looks caught on camera!









Our Newest Book Lover


If this girl is quiet, she is probably reading a book
If she is upset, offer to read her a book
If she wants your attention, she'll ask to read a book
