iPhone offload: Summer Updates

My phone told me today that it ran out of storage for photos so it's the perfect time to clear off the 932 photos and videos i have on there and do a little update. It doesn't seem like we've been that busy since we've been staying close to home but after clearing off my phone I realized we have been busy after all.

Before Nolan got out of school I took Miles on a mommy and me date to the Science Center. He LOVED the butterfly exhibit. I was worried he would try to crush the butterflies but he was very gentle.


At the Science center he fell asleep AGAIN during the laser show. He's 2 for 2! Maybe I need to get some lasers installed in his room?
Nolan lost another tooth and this was a front tooth! His other one is super loose so there is a chance that he can be toothless this summer.




Pat and I got snazzied up for our anniversary and went to Teatro ZinZanni. We had a great time!

Here we are almost 13 years ago, the year we met.

We traded in the pilot for a highlander. and a few weeks later we sold my first baby (the civic I bought right out of high school) and got pat a sporty little camry. 

  
Oh adorable bed head!

lots of fun playdates lately.

Nolans farmer themed end of school concert was so sweet!


4 of the 5 bridesmaids and the bride at Rachelle's bridal shower.

so. much. ice. cream.


We adopted a fish and named him Cutie. Miraculously he is still alive. 




My favorite people in my happy place. 


The boys really enjoyed their first real 4th of July fireworks show. I'm so glad they are finally at an age to enjoy these things. 


Nolan is reading all by himself! He likes to read a book to us at story time and then we read a book to him. Plus he loves reading signs, pamphlets and magazines when we are out and about. 


We hosted a backyard movie night and it was so much fun! Of course it was the only day it rained this month but we are Washingtonians, we can handle it!



Still scowling.
trampolines and trucks?! yes please!
Arcade and bowling before the sleepover.
Clementine's visit was such a blast! These two are such hams.




lots of time at Target. It has air conditioning and popcorn, everyone wins. 

iPhone Offload: Miles Sleeps Montage

Miles is my sleeping child, he stays up late but can sleep until noon...just like his mama. As of this Summer he is officially done with his crib. His big boy bed has brought some adjustments to his sleep cycle and temperament. 


I don't know how much he actually sleeps since every morning I come into this mess. He must be playing all night because he's super grumpy when he wakes up...just like his mama.


Every so often I catch him actually sleeping in his bed.


But usually it's in a pile of blankets somewhere on his floor.



His favorite place to sleep is being rocked in his chair all wrapped up on mamas lap. I love how cuddly this guy is!


All this sleep leads to some epic bed head hair. :)


iPhone offload: Selfies

The kids are all about taking selfies of themselves. They beg me to take them or steal my phone and fill up my photo album with pictures of funny faces and blurry hands. It's nice to get on the other side of the camera for once although it's not always the most flattering results. Oh well, at least I'm in there. 







This must be the most flattering lighting ever! If only all photos could be so flattering.

This one taken just a few minutes after the one above is far more realistic.
