Officially calling it SUMMER!!!

 

 So it's been mid to high 80's for the last couple of weeks, everyone is sporting shorts and tanks if not swim suits, we have used our AC a couple of times.... I am calling it- Happy SUMMER TIME everyone!!!

 

It started warming up a few days before Mother's day which was a lovely day for the most part! Mass, breakfast made by daddy & uncle John at Grandma's and some hanging out!

Later in the evening dad and I hit a small hick up, but you'll figure it out one day.... Marriage is wonderful, beautiful, and amazing, but definitely not a perfect fair tale! Don't worry I am still ridiculously in love with your daddy :)

-without you guys I wouldn't be able to celebrate Mother's day so thanks!

Life has been pretty mellow lately. Just adjusting still to being a family of 5. Timmy you are a bit of a stinker, you cry alot unless your mama is holding you, I guess I should just be less awesome so maybe you will let someone else hold you! I just remind myself it won't last and try to snuggle and cuddle you knowing soon you will be running around and being crazy with your brother & sister!

 

Enjoying Uncle John-O pouring water all over you at the soccer game!

Well, because who doesn't love chubby baby feet?!?!

In one of your many sling, front pack contraptions to keep you as close as humanly possible to me!

Yes Himmy, yes they are!

Could you two BE ANY CUTER?!?!

Georgie you were playing with my phone and snapped a pic when I went to take it from you!

LOVED your new shirt from Auntie/Godmother Louie!

First big girl hairdo with bangs! Don't look too closely! Mama did it herself and it is ummm... well my first try~! I still think you are a cutie pie!

A little creativity in the work out department :)

 

 

 We recently lost a beautiful friend, Zaide Criste. A wonderfully sassy and kind woman who was a good friend of Auntie Janet's and a friend of mine through our rosary group! She always raved about you guys and how adorable she thought you all were and we prayed for her often! She lost her battle with cancer and is now in Heaven with Jesus and her babies she had lost, but never forgot! Her funeral was lovely and made me really want to appreciate you guys and my life and how short it really is! I listened to the eulogy and Susie Ekblad talking about how she was always so in love and dedicated to her husband and how she would have done anything and everything for her kids! I strive for that and I hope you and your daddy always know how much you mean to me and how I would and always will  do anything for you that I can! I am here for you and you guys are so so important to me!

Love,

Mama
