Guderian Visit....

Last week, our good friends from Tulsa, Oklahoma came out to visit.  It was the first time that all the kids got to meet each other.  

Here's the only good picture we got the whole week.

Moses and Ivy already miss their new friends, Hope and Bryce!

LA Trip...

Uncle Steve had gotten us tickets to the Dodgers game, so we decided to make it a weekend trip.  On the way up to LA, we stopped at the children's museum in Orange County. 

Moses had a great time exploring the submarine.

Ivy had a great time dancing on the interactive mat.

Ivy got to slide down her first indoor slide.

Moses transformed into a turtle.

"I've got the whole word in my hands!"

Our little monkey was very excited and determined to climb the rock wall all by himself.  Daddy was a little unsure but let him try it.

The first few steps and not too terrible.

Just in case, Daddy always had a hand up, but Moses didn't need his help.  He made it all the way up to the top by himself.

"WOO-HOO!  I climbed the mountain!"

The girls on the balcony of our hotel in Santa Monica.

It was a great little family getaway and the first one for Ivy.

7 months...

Happy 7 months to our little Ivy!

"That's right!  I'm sitting up all on my own!"

Legoland Firsts....

We have been to Legoland more times than one can count.  But, it's a whole new experience for Ivy.  She has been going since she was a month old, but just recently she has gotten to experience more of the park and outside of her Ergo. 

Ivy and Daddy enjoying the Fairytale boat ride.

"Who knew they let pirates on the boat ride?"

"Choo-choo!  We're on a TRAIN!"

Moses thought it was pretty funny to have his baby sister on the train.

Happy 4th of July!

This year, we celebrated the Fourth with a barbecue at the Youngbergs.  Moses always has a great time there because Chris always has a new fun gadget to play with.

Here's Moses with his best bud, Chris.  Aren't they adorable?! 

"Happy 4th of July!"

Look at what I found?

Ivy has been putting her sense of taste to the test.  Like any baby, she has to put everything in her mouth.  Well lately, she's found something else to put in her mouth.

"YUP!  I found my toes!"

"But nothing beats my thumb!"

First Day of Camp....

To help get ready for preschool, we decided that Moses should go to camp over the summer.  This way he could meet his preschool teachers and make some new friends.

Mommy can't believe that this time has already come.

"GOOOOO CAMP!  I'm READY!!"

He was still all smiles in the parking lot.

Our little man did AWESOME!  He had a rough start but ended up having a wonderful time!
