Summer Nights



We have had such a fun summer, but I am soooo excited for Fall! It is my favorite time of the year! Seriously everything about it makes me giddy!!! I have even already started Miss A's Halloween costume and Thanksgiving dress..ha! We will miss summer nights though swimming at Aunt Lynne's house with the family. It seems like we were over there about 3-4 a week! Miss A loves the water! She also really loves Lynne's fire pit!! I mean really loves! We were obviously very safe and sat very far back in a designated area, but girl, as soon as we got to the pool Miss A would say fire...fire! I can't wait for next year when Graham will be joining us and not just sitting on the sidelines . They will be the best of friends! I just know it. Have I mentioned Jess and Jace came to visit from IL. I love having her here. Ash loved having Jace here...I am already dreading next week when they leave....DON'T GO!!!

Miss A enjoying Graham's new car seat....

Swimming is exhausting and so is talking on the phone...

Late night swim and bike ride!

Daddy and Ash

Miss A went swimming the night I went into labor. Thank you mom and Lynne for keeping her busy!

I love this picture of Ash enjoying a Graham Pop...Best Big Sis EVER!


Sidenote:
Miss A says everything..I mean everything! She evens talks in small sentences..genius..I know, I know...but she won't say thank you? She will only sign it. I think it is cute, but kinda weird?

I bought Miss A and Baby G swim suits the other day and seriously scored the best deal! I love bargain shopping! They were half off and Ruffle Butts/ Rugged Butts brand. I paid about $ 8-12 for each....That is cheaper than Target! I was so proud!

Miss A drinks a smoothie almost everyday! That girl LOVES fruit! I started getting sneaky and adding spinach to it..I know, I am so clever right?


Being completely transparent:
Things around here have been a little difficult lately. Miss A loves her baby brother, but she also can get really jealous of him. It makes my heart so sad to see her angry or upset. She is so little, only 19 months and seems to understand, but really how much do they understand? It is slowly progressing, but then I feel like we will completely digress. Not to mention she is teething. Poor girl! Any advice for you moms of 2, 3, 4+? I want each of them to feel treasured and special and it breaks my heart to think she is feeling left out, replaced, etc.
Okay that is all for now....We are off the the doctor. YIKES! I am actually a little nervous taking them both. Wish me luck.
