June

June has been a busy month! Our family has 4 birthdays and an anniversary to celebrate! When we're not busy partying, we've been:

Playing airplanes with Great-Grandma Bev (As well as thoroughly enjoying her company!)


Sporting sister's headbands while playing trains.


Self-soothing.


Snuggling in a blanket to watch morning cartoons.


Teaching sister how to "fly" an airplane.


Impromptu photo shoots.


Snuggling with Dad.


Making (and using!) homemade finger paints.


Watching for hummingbirds on the front porch.

Thumb sucker.

I've always wanted a baby that sucked their thumb :) Way easier than binkies (in my opinion!) I figure since Erik was a thumb sucker, as well as Ana, Maari and my Mom I was bound to have a thumb-sucker sooner or later!

Madelyn has discovered her thumb this week and has been sucking on it almost non stop since! It's been a great soother for her and makes nap time a breeze! Good grief, could this child get any easier?!?! :)

Update and misc pictures!

I'm sorry my blogging has been so sparse these last few months. Two kids really keep you busy :) We've also had FABULOUS weather lately and have been spending a lot of time outside!

A favorite way to cool off around here has been the sprinkler and kiddie pool.

Cousin Mason has been coming over to play with Payton and join in the sprinkler fun!


Payton still has a HUGE love for coloring. Having a big piece of paper helps keep the colors off the floor (and body!)


Madelyn is doing great! She's growing like a weed!

She loves to look at the baby in the mirror. She's almost rolling from back to front, but can't get over her arm. She usually gets frustrated and cries. :)


"Sissy, wook (look) at me!"

Of course all these activities can wear a person out...so then it's time for snuggling!


Or just fall asleep where ever looks most comfortable.
