We are seriously loving Braydon's summer schedule. We are all going to have a really hard time when he goes back to a full course load at school this fall! We have been going to the pool and calypso cove ( the ymca water park) it's been very very hot. So we haven't really been to the park in a while. We have been doing lots of coloring, painting, bubbles and squirt gun fights. It's been a very fun summer so far. We seriously can't wait to go home and see our family. Sawyer asks everyday to go to his sunshines house. He talked to my mom and sister yesterday asking/crying to come stay with them at their house. Poor kid can't even stand to wait. Benson no longer looks like a newborn (tear) he is getting chubby which is adorable, but he is growing to fast. Sawyer is doing so well in swimming lessons. Yesterday at the pool he swam with his head under back and forth between lauren and I. He hugged me so tight after and said " i am a good swimmer mom" such a sweet boy! We have been so proud of him for going potty in the toilet. He is on some medication to help him poop easier. Poor kid has a very hard time. So he has no FINALLY started going into the toilet. WE are so proud of him and he makes sure he lets us know he gets a present everytime he goes poop in the toilet. We started a money jar so everytime he goes he gets to put money in it. when it is full he gets to buy a present. the other day we were on our way to the water park benson was so sad and sawyer was in the back saying " it's ok buddy" we are almost there buddy" I love you buddy" Mom he is so sad he needs my toy or a kiss" How did Braydon and I get so lucky? We are just so blessed to have great kids, great family, great friends... even though sometimes it is really hard we just have a great life!

He can  barely stand sitting there by bumblebee to get his picture taken. He wanted to play with him so bad.

before bath and after! I love bathtime because my boys smell so good and it helps them get sleepy

Sawyer being silly and playing "baby benson ironman"

"lets talk benson"

"this is ironman/tony stark/jarvis benson" he is my mask"

I guess watching netflix on the ipod really helps things along! He kills me

Sweet smiles

it's been so hot that we stayed home one day and just played superheroes. We have a lot of superheroes at this house!! Benson thought we were nuts

Do you think we spend enough time outside? look at that tanline!

I can't help but kiss him all day! Both my boys get smothered in kisses all day everday! I have to do it now because one day they won't let me :(

We have been getting up between 4-6 am for the last three weeks. So we hang out in mommy and daddy's bed in the morning before we make breakfast.
