Anything New?

Our family is just having a great summer already! I absolutely love staying home with the kids more! I really enjoy my time with them! I think Garrett could stay home all day everyday and love it! He loves school too, but I think he prefers being home! Landon is just a social bug...he loves everybody everywhere! I can definitely tell who is whose child? We have spent some of our time out at the lake with Nana and Papa and some time just hanging out at the house! Both of the kids are at very fun stages! Garrett is hilarious of what he remembers! I will ask him at night if he wants to help Mommy water the flowers tomorrow and he will tell me sure...we can throw shoes at the squirrels too! (Let me explain!) One day I was really frustrated with the squirrels eating my flowers. We even went to Lowes to buy some squirrel food to divert them from the flowers....didin't work! I told Garrett if he ever sees a squirrel eating the flowers to pound on the back door and tell them to shooooo. He did that all day! When the day progressed I got even more frustrated and my reaction moved from hitting the window and telling them to shooo...to running out on the deck with a shoe and chucking it at the squirrel. I learned my lesson though...after a few times of that a big storm blew in and poured rain all in my shoes! OOOPS! It was a great adventure though! Garrett thinks now that everytime we are going to water the plants we are also going to be throwing shoes! LOL!!!

Landon is sooooo much fun now too....he is ALMOST crawling! He can move one hand forward and both legs and then he face plants to the ground! He is trying so hard to move so he can start keepin up with his BRO! He loves to smile and laugh at all of Garretts jokes! Garrett and Ryan can ALWAYS make Lando laugh! One thing I am not so sure of is the whinning already!!! He has learned that from his brother! I am determined to break the whinning in both of them! It's amazing what they can get from the siblings!

Ryan and I are enjoying each other! We are currently in a married bible study group that has its good and hard challenges! We are definitely enjoying the homework each week...we are required to spend time together without the children! Can't forget about each other...that is easier said than done! We are excited for Ryan's upcoming birhtday which hopefully we will be spending at Devils Den. Ryan I think has found something he really likes to do...hike in the mountains!

Welll there is the update for our family! We love you all! I am really trying hard to stay up with all the blogs...facebooks...emails...projects and so forth! Bare with me!
