Big post for a Big Summer!

So many birthdays this summer...so much fun with friends and family...so much play time and, oh yeah, one small little surgery! What a full summer!


Matthew at "snack time" at church. How did he get so big?! Arent they cute all lined up?


Matthew pre-surgery. He was AMAZING! Such a trooper...laughing and playing pre and post surgery. His circumcision went well...poor little man. Never seen bruising so yucky in all my life. If you are going to circumcise your boy, I highly recommend it in the first few days of life!


Got a whole week of play time with Melissa! She is THE BEST! We would be lost without her!


Happy Birthday Hudson! So glad to play with you at your party..in the sand and water! :)


Had lots of playtime with Jackson this summer...wrestlemania is what we call it! I LOVE THIS PIC OF THE BOYS!


Matty met Chuck E Cheese for the first time at Jacksons birthday party a few weeks back...not sure what to think!


Swimming with ALL the cousins!! So much fun to all be together...


I cant believe we got them ALL looking..what a priceless photo!


Okay, so Matthew Josiah is a Daddys boy - in every sense of the word! When Brian goes in the restroom to shower, or shave, etc...Matthew waits and watches under the door like this saying, "Da Da" over and over until he comes back! Not much privacy these days!


Matty loves playing with the old school radio we have. DJ Master Matty working it out....


Love those beautiful dark brown crossed eyes...love em. Sorry I got so close Matty! You are just so pretty! :)


New game of the summer...playing peek a boo with my computer sleeve. Matty shoves his head all the way in it and then pops it out and says, "BOO" and cracks himself up!


Matty has a thing for horsies, or "orsie" as he calls them.


More fun at Chuck E Cheese for Jacks birthday!



The whole fam...all together! Happy Birthday Kris. So glad we got to be with you for your birthday!


Cousin Tommy was VERY into the birthday dessert! He was lapping up the ice cream like a puppy dog...sooo cute!


Cousin Tenley and Tommy with Matty at Taylors birthday party! Tenley making sure Matthew "was smiling" for this pic. She LOVES Matty and treats him like her little baby every time we are together!


Matty on another "orsie" at Tays party!


All the kids were playing hard at the party...and some Daddies too! :)

We have had a full summer and loved every minute...more birthdays and fun to come!

great post, court. my favorite is the bathroom pic. it's amazing how interesting bathroom activities have become!!! I wonder if we'd get lonely if we had the chance to be in there all by ourselves now? looks like y'all are having a busy summer - we'll be in SA at some point in the next month - hopefully we can get together.
