Catching up...

Here are some pictures of what we have been up to this summer. We discovered the Natural Science Museum of Greensboro. It's so awesome and close. We'll be coming back for sure.


Rueben's true nature...


A couple of weeks ago, Sam fell off the monkey bars and fractured arm, right above the elbow. He's doing pretty well for the most part. Frustrated and bored. I'm racking my brains on a daily basis trying to find things that he can do that are fun. Any ideas would be appreciated. Doc said cast for 2 weeks, so it shouldn't be so bad and hopefully he'll be cast free for our beach trip.




Petting and combing the goats and lambs.




Milking a cow is hard, let alone with one hand.




Meerkats are awesome! We don't know what they were staring at, but they had the synchronized staring down.






Isa doesn't do well with loud noises and this T-Rex was loud.




Enjoying our weekly concert.


1 box + 3 kids = good times.


Before the fracture, Sam could swim the entire length of a swimming pool without floaties.


Getting the kids ready for a bath, Isa brings her princess crown to play with. Sam says, "You are going to be the queen of the sea Isabelle. Cool."
Isa decides she doesn't want to wear it so then Sam puts it on and says, "Then I will be the queen of the sea. I'll be the drag queen".
I pipe in at this time and say "whaaat?!?"
Sam: "I'm going to be the drag queen mom, don't worry I know what that means, it's a boy who dresses up like a girl. They are called drag queens."
Mom: "Who told you this Sam?"
Sam: "I saw it on the Bee movie".
Seriously...really?


One night as we were driving home from our Sat concert, Isa was playing "knock knock" with daddy. They were having so much fun that I wanted in on it.
Isa: Knock Knock
Mom: Whose there?
Isa: NOT YOU!!!!

I'm glad to report that Isa is using the potty like a big girl now. Diaper free existence is so wonderful. She wont even wear a pull up at night and she wakes up dry. It's about time :)






That's all folks...for now.
