A lull


There’s been a lull in our activities lately. That’s good. We’ve still been busy, just not much to write about. However, it’s about to get really, really busy. Our schedule is pretty booked for the next 2 months. A lot of not so fun stuff mixed in with the really exciting countdown to Tim and Stef’s wedding!

So what’s been going on with us?
Baby girl is now 3 months old. Currently, she’s dealing with extreme eczema on her head and shoulders. I just ordered a probiotic for her–I hope it helps! I feel so bad for her and her itchy head!

Liam begged to hold her while they watched “Homeward Bound.”

My little sailor boy, looking so cute. Not acting that way. I didn’t really want to blog about how much this little troublemaker drives me crazy. But I’m hoping that one day I can look back and see that he has come a long way from the little boy who would throw things in the toilet, torment his brothers (yeah right), take his diaper off at naptime/bedtime, destroy everything, and disobey at all times.

A rare picture of E without her headband. Someone likes to take them off of her, not naming any names.

I know it’s hard to see but we had Tim and Stef over last week. It was a great time! We had to introduce Tim to S&J.

Lots of game playing for the boys. Earthbound, monopoly, Quikopoly. Yeah, Quiktrip has their own version. The boys are obsessed.

Lots of rain this summer. Lots of rain dances

The boys begged to go to my dentist appointment. They knew there was a tv.

And that’s the place that set me up for all the not so fun activities coming up. A gum cleaning, lots of cavities to fill, and an appointment with the oral surgeon to talk about how many wisdom teeth to remove. There’s a possibility only one needs to be removed!!

And now ending this post with one more super cute picture of Evangeline! She is so photogenic!

Step in time


The great thing about St. Louis is that it seems to have a lot of free activities throughout the year. We are cheap, we love free! The Muny is just one of those things that I like to do every year. Just once and just in the free seats. I am not much of a theater person (especially if I’ve already seen the movie.) I just tend to leave the theater saying “yeah, it was okay but the movie was better.” But I do love the experience.

This year’s experience was great. Great friends, great weather, great food. I will say that the show itself is not what I would classify as “great.”
I was looking forward to seeing Mary Poppins at the Muny all summer. Little did I know it would be changed so much from the original story line. The actors did a great job, but I just was not a fan of all the added songs and a drastic change to the story.
We had a fun time, even with the multiple trips to the bathroom with the boys.
