Today Was A Kick

Max started soccer camp today! I was not able to go see him on his first day but Kelly took video and am looking forward to that. I will try and go at least one day this week to get some photos. He loved it and actually learned some stuff already!

Red House

Today is the first day that we have renters moving into our house in Seattle. Kind of sad but kind of cool because it is just one of the ways to help us keep the home that we love. Can't wait to live there again one day!

Max has his first real catch

Today, we were playing in the backyard and Max and I were throwing the ball back and forth. Usually, Max comes close to catching but never actually does....but Today is the day that Max caught the ball. Not just once but six times! Way to go little buddy!

We also had fun fetching with Cypress. She would hope that Max would drop the ball so she could run in and retrieve it. She fetched for Max a couple of times but is still used to bringing the ball to me.

Tomorrow, Kelly and the kids are going to tour what might be Max's first school!

Today was fun

Max, Alex, and I went to Wal-Mart to pick up syrup for making chocolate milk for Max and orange juice for Alex. While there we found ourselves in the aisle of water toys. We found these things called aqua zookas. They are pretty cool and the kids can use them really well. They are big pumps that suck up water and then let you push out the water through the pump so that it shoots out really far. Max is getting really fast so he can chase me down and soak me pretty good! Alex enjoyed running and hiding from us while we tried to get her really wet. Fun stuff.

Alex cuddled with me quite a few times today which was really nice and just what I needed.

Where we are today

Well, it is mid-July and we just delivered our third child, Fox, on July 9th! Since 2003, we have been living in Seattle, Washington. A place we love very much. We moved to Arkansas in March of this year for a great job opportunity that will provide better for our family. We have kept our house in Seattle and will hopefully live there again in the future. But for now, we will live and play in Arkansas.

To Start....

I often think that I would like to record the happy things that my life brings me. This is the purpose of this blog.
