Another tooth out (thanks to Austin!)

Tonight Austin jumped on Rexford's head and his second bottom tooth came out.  We couldn't find it so we thought he swallowed it.  We decided we would just have to write the Tooth Fairy a note explaining why he didn't have the tooth.  Later when it was time for a bath, the tooth fell out of his shirt onto the bathroom floor.  So he was able to leave the tooth for the Tooth Fairy after all!

Happy Father's Day

For Father's Day I had the boys tell me things they love about Brian and took pictures of them holding their ideas.  Then we put them together for a photo collage in a frame. The boys love their Daddy so much!

On Father's Day we missed the kids singing at church so Rexford and Austin and Ethan, Ava, and Zach all sang for the Dads instead. Cute kids!

Driving Range Fun

St. Augustine/Jacksonville Trip

We took a trip to Jacksonville to see Eric's family and we stopped in St. Augustine on the way there. We toured the fort and the kids liked the canons and guns.  Then we drove to Jacksonville to play with cousins for the night.  The boys had so much fun playing with Ethan, Ava, and Zach and they never want to leave.

Legos

The boys love Legos, especially Austin.  He will sit and build for a long time.  Here are some Lego pics and a few others.

Last Day of School

We made it through the first year of elementary school!  Here's my big boy excited for the last day of school and the beginning of summer.

Austin and I tried to make a cookie cake and it spilled all over the oven so we went to Target and bought one instead.  We surprised Rexford and Dad and celebrated the last day of the school year.

Rexford's First Loose Tooth

Rexford lost his first tooth on June 5th!  He was eating and he felt something and spit it into his hand.  He was so excited to get money from the tooth fairy but asked her if he could keep the tooth too!

Jacob, Matthew, and Aly's Birthday Celebration

My sister Alyson asked me to make Matthew and Jacob cakes for their birthday party.  I made a Batman cake for Matthew and a 1st birthday cake for Jacob and since Alyson's birthday is two days later I made one for her too.  Here are pictures from the fun party!
