July : Lake Mohave

The kids and I took an adventure out to Lake Mohave with my parents and siblings for a water skiing trip (Jason had to work). It was a lot of work for me to do solo and a long drive, but we had so much fun! It was worth it just to see how excited they both got to go on the tube, teaching Ryan what a life vest was (That was hilarious. He kept thinking he had to really swim. So he'd be working so hard and I had to show him he could just float with the jacket!), and how excited they got to stay in a hotel. I did get to ski too but the water was just ok and I realize I'm still out of shape from having a baby only 4 months ago! But it was fun!
My mom with her grandbabies!
My little boat girl. She loved every minute!
Me, Jayne, and Ryan on the tube. Ryan puts his hands in the air like a roller coaster and tells me, "look mom, no hands!" and then "don't hold on to me, mom, I can do it by myself!" He loved it!
I think he's gonna want to wake board next summer. He thinks he's a big kid. Pretty funny.
Kyle's first boat trip! He did so great! He stayed cool, took naps, and was as happy as could be. He never cried and really went with the flow of things all trip.
And he loved the water!
Ryan so happy swimming with Grandpa!
Jayne even got brave enough to go with Uncle Trenton on his jet ski! She was smiling the entire time.
Kyle and my mom. We had so much fun, the kids are asking when they get to go again :-)

4th of July

We had a wonderful 4th of July weekend. We spent a day in Pasadena at my bro/sis-in-law's pool club. And on Monday, the 4th, we hosted a party for Jason's family. We did the pool, then dinner at our house and fireworks we could see from our front yard. It was a wonderful day! Sadly, I was too busy hosting to take pictures at the party.
The morning of 4th of July, we took the kids for a walk on the beach. It was the most beautiful day!
Kyle even fell asleep for his morning nap before we could make it back to the car :-)

July: Dance Recital

Jayne had her second Dance Recital. It was adorable. And of course she did amazing. She loves it so much. It's so fun to see her in her element.

Awesome Beach Day

It was our first official beach day of the summer (yes, Kyle's already been to the beach several times before today, but now that it's summer, it's official). The water looked like Hawaii, the air temp was perfect, we even saw a family of dolphins swim really close to shore and were jumping out of the water! My kids actually played nice, the baby was awake the whole time but never cried. I was in heaven :-)
And yes, Jayne is already black. I coat them both in 50 or 70 every single time we go out but it's inevitable. I'm sure baby will follow suit once his skin sees the sun.
Kyle with my friends baby Quinn. Such good babies. I think they already love the beach.

FINALLY Summer!

Jayne didn't get out of school until yesterday!! It feels like everyone has been out for months and we've still be doing school everyday. I am so. excited. Hip hip hurray!!! It's finally summer. I'm ready to play!
The kids and I headed to the pool after her minimum day so we could celebrate!
It was Kyle's first time in the pool. He loved it! And it totally knocked him out! What a good little boy. He loves being out and about.

Father's Day Weekend

We had another wonderful busy week/end. Jason's whole family came to town to celebrate father's day. His brother Mike's family stayed at our house a little bit. It was so much fun to see the babies together. They were born the exact same day only a few hours apart. Their going to be great friends.
The kids have so much fun playing with their cousins. They were excited to have all 10 cousins together over the weekend.
Jayne and Taylor even got a sleepover in a tent!
The Jonas Boys
Happy Father's Day to our 2 wonderful father's and to my amazing husband! I couldn't have dreamed for a better daddy for my kids! We are so lucky to have you!

Answer Key: 1- Kyle, 2- Jayne, 3-Ryan.
Looking at Jayne's pictures, Kyle is a boy version of her! It' so funny! It was hard to find a picture that she wasn't in total pink to crop down. Oh well. Kinda fun to see them all at 3 months.
