In no particular order

We have what we've been doing this summer. B/c it's been forever since I've put pictures on there are alot. So sit tight and enjoy the ride. Maybe you'll get bored halfway-that's okay. Unless you're blood-you have to look at all of them!!!
Eliza eating her first solid! Oatmeal hit the spot!
Some friends in the ward had Eliza one Sunday and snapped this picture of her sleeping. Notice she's fallen asleep w/ one hand in the mouth, the other holding her tootsie. What a nut!
My old neighbor from our last house came from Chicago to visit. She needs to move back!!!
The kids w/ our new daily routine. Swim and eat popsicles. Repeat.
Some indoor smores. It didn't stop raining at the beginning of summer.
Phil had a brilliant idea to have a door put in our garage to the backdoor creating a mudroom of sorts. I LOVE it!!!
thrilling!!!!!
A shout out to Dave Kayes who did it for us. We're not sure at this point how we lived 2 years without it!!!
The finished product. W/out the trim, stairs and I painted it red.
Rolling over for the first time!
2 happy kids
3 happy kids. I had fun getting them Philly-fied.
Of course playing in sprinkler requires swords and shields. Of course!!!
After cleaning the gutters Phil took the boys on the roof and they loved it. It was tough getting them back down!
A little tummy-time.
This picture says everything about Chase's personality.
4th of July
cute shirts my sister jessy helped me make.

Lizy's dress from Grandma Joellen.
We went w/ some friends to a creek near the shore to look for fossils. We found several sharks teeth and something else cool but at the moment it escapes me. But it was cool trust me.
I am hoping Ty doesn't have OCD. I walked in to him lining all his toys up perfectly. There was apparently a battle they were all getting ready for.
Ready to take a dip in the pool.
So sweet.
Our new addition. We love it. I am freaked out by the danger of it. We use it all the time. I love, I hate. But in one week Tyler is swimming under water, using goggles, jumping in. And now Chase is swimming and jumping in.
Tyler swam around in circles 4 times. Amazing for a kid who was timid in swim class!!
Our friends the Sherwood's came to visit. For some reason I only have pics of Josh and the kids! No amanda!!! Here's Josh w/ their son Tyson and Eliza.
Swimming. Josh wearing children's snorkeling mask. Too funny!!!
Eliza loves the water too!
here's Ty swimming w/ his face in the water! are you kidding me?!?!?!The other day Jenn called and said, "let's go to the beach." So we did. The kids had a BLAST!!
A sand version of my girl.
Building a sandcastle. Well, adding the finishing touches.
