Summer is finally here and we have been spending the first week hanging out at the house. Our living room becomes a daily disaster zone with toy explosions happening every hour. Chase seems to be getting a new tooth everyday and is now up to 5 teeth and I suspect at least one more will be pushing through in the next few days. He has been crawling for a while and started pulling up about a month ago and is even starting to cruise a little bit. I can't believe that it will be his 1st birthday in about a month, time has gone by so fast. I wonder what another year will bring.
Chase is learning the art of grilling from Daddy.
We recently decided to purchase a larger inflating pool that everyone could enjoy. It is one of those self-rising pools and is about 3 1/2 feet deep and it's big enough for the whole family to fit into it. With the days so hot it has been wonderful being able to step outside our own door and get in the pool without having to pack up the kids and drive to one of the community pools.
(It's much deeper than this picture below)
Our other big project this summer is building our deck in the backyard. Our backyard is very shady and it has been difficult trying to get grass to grow so the majority of our yard is sand and dirt. So we decided to not fight the shade and embrace it by covering the dirt with a huge deck patio. Jeff has been working on it nearly everyday and it is going to be a great place to sit and relax when it is all finished.
I swear I have the most photogenic kids, I don't know where they get it from. I'm not photogenic and I know Jeff is not, but both of my beautiful kids take the best pictures.
