Growing Up

Over a year ago the boys and I hosted a playgroup every other week with a few of our friends. We called it Movietime Mommas with the intention of having a quiet movie night so the mommies could relax and the kiddos could have some downtime. Well, the movie nights were more complete chaos than relaxing, but we always had fun anyway.

This was taken the during the first get-together.

This is what Jo did the whole time.

And Logan enjoyed staying near Mommy. :)

And this is now!

With a new addition :)

Brooklyn is now the proud owner of a baby sister! :) Sawyer Grace was born on July 22nd. We needed another girl in our group of kiddos, so she's the perfect addition.

And me with Sawyer

Can you tell which of us doesn't have children? :) And can anyone tell me why I didn't get a picture of Sawyer and Mommy? I'm such a bad friend sometimes. Lol!

Yesterday, the boys and I went to the Children's Museum of the Sierra with Cindy and Logan. I didn't even knew that place existed, so I was just as excited as the kiddos. What else is new though, right?!

Jordan said, "Mommy, dinner time!" and gave me corn. :)

Here is Logan's "after" picture. He has a newfound sense of independence. :)

This is the best I could do. Which is excellent, considering I couldn't get Jordan to sit still long enough to take a picture with me!

He's such a lover of animals :)

If you know my boys, this picture won't surprise you one bit.

That's my boy! :)

I love that my boys have such a passion to explore and learn new things. That is definitely a trait that I will be nurturing in each of them.
