July 2014 Randoms

Here are all the photos from July that I didn't post somewhere else!

Dad dropping off LJ in Church class... check out their new matching Crocs!! Evan has them too now!
Real Superheros (from the Bible) is the theme this month in KIDS section at church. Boys are learning about Moses, David and Goliath, etc. LJ is loving the stories, and both boys are really enjoying all the props they get (cool capes, masks, arm bands, etc). 

Boys loves getting to see their cousins Kate and Lauren at Church!





Evan and Kate... 
Precious hugs! 

Dinner time!


LOVE this one of my boys! 

Pottery Barn Kids was having a visit from a character called Wolfster from Super-Why (a PBS show the boys like to watch) with a story time- so we decided to run by.  Eagle Jr made it too!


Hi-five for Wolfster!! 

The boys are back in music class at Armstrong Community Music Center for the last summer session before school starts.  We have done this class several times, and the boys seem to enjoy more each time!




One Sunday, LJ and I had a special date where we went to a store store way up north where 'Queen Elsa' from LJ's favorite movie Frozen would be available to take pictures with and other fun Frozen crafts would be going on.   Aunt Funny and Eagle Jr went also. BUT when we got there, the line to get in to see Elsa was literally wrapped all the way around the building- a shopping center building! It took almost 2 hours to get through the line- but Eagle Jr and LJ love Frozen so much, they insisted on waiting it out! Of course, my monkey LJ decided to be shy as soon as we got up there and refused to sit on her lap- or even get close to her! So after 2 hours, I didn't even get a picture! But he did make a snow flake he was very proud of! 


Boys got a lollipop as a special treat- LJ asked me to take a picture of his blue tongue!
So I asked Evan to take a selfie with me!

LJ favorite shirt (actually a pajama top from the McDonnell's for his birthday last year), is still this Woody shirt! Instead of napping one day, he changed into it, and then he insisted on wearing it when we went to the store- even in the 90+ degree weather! 
We got a giant new bean bag- instant hit with all my boys!!! 
 The whole family fits on it! How fun is this!!
 We have so many bunnies in our yard- especially in the evening! And they have no fear- you can get pretty close to them before they move... I loved how this one was chillin' with his legs sprawled out behind him! Haha!
 The boys enjoying going to the gym several days a week- they have the routine down, walk right in, say bye, and are happy!! They also insist on getting a smoothie on our way out! And they love sitting on the couch to enjoy it for a few minutes before we leave. You can catch us looking like this about 3-4 times a week!! 

 I LOVE Evan's 'Cheeeeeeeeese' face! ha!!!

Barrett's company, WoodGen, had a family fun night where he and work associates got to take their families to a Round Rock Express Game for a fun night out together. After going to the Chihuahua's game, the boys were SO excited to hear they got to attend another baseball game! 

Sign on the door.... 
 Happy little monkeys! LJ has a new-found love of 'selfies'! He is posing in these for his selfie!

 Tried for a family selfie... sun was pretty hot from this angle!
 Someone took pity on us and offered to take the picture!

 Evan watching the game...
Had to stop for a picture with the dog!

Fun month together!!!

LJ Swimming

LJ has made some big improvements in his swimming these last few weeks.  We are so excited and proud of him. He absolutely loves swimming and being in the water- we have probably been swimming at least 5 days a week. 2 weeks ago... http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=ZZbP_UhrCnE And this weekend...  Also, at the end he asks if he can go pee off the balcony! Haha! Another thing he has gotten very good at! And while this may sound surprising, we are very proud of this too because he successfully pees most days (hey, have to start somewhere, right!?)! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S80hmdL1_2Q&feature=em-upload_owner

Trampoline Park

Went back to Trampoline Park on Sunday... LJ has gotten so much better and more confident - guess all the practice time on his little trampoline is paying off! Still so much fun for Dad...  And the Mamas finally get in on all the fun!  Last time we went I was VERY pregnant and couldn't jump... but not this time! I see a frequent Sunday family outing in our future! A little sliding time... And video gaming! Too much fun!!

LJ Loses his first Teeth!

Image
LJ's two bottom teeth were definitely loose. He had been wiggling them for MONTHS and insisting they were about to come out! While we were in El Paso in June, one of them got really loose, and he even begged us to just pull it out or take him to a dentist!! Hah!!  And I actually tried, but I couldn't get a good grip on it. Then when we looked up ways to pull teeth (like the well known string on a door handle), the overwhelming recommendation was NOT to do it!! Apparently this could cause a tooth to come out too soon and lead to infection! Who knew! So he had to wait!!  That said, he tooth was getting so loose, it was leaning sideways in his mouth!! It almost looked like it had come out sometimes because it wasn't sitting so funny! Then on July 3, as I was brushing his teeth before bed (sometimes I make him let me do it so I can be sure they are getting a good brushing), I literally brushed his tooth sideways!! Ah!!! It looked crazy, and he said it was hurting h...
