July Wrap-up

Well, there went July and it seems like August is going with it! So here's a few updates and pictures from July.

Graysen had a check-up last month and in three months he grew over 3 1/2 inches, crazy! and has been consistently going potty on the big toilet (TMI, maybe but awesome!!). His new obsessions: hot dogs (weird?), and anything involved with helicopters, planes or motorcycles. He is still on track for the NFL, yes, last week he threw a spiral right into my face, and almost broke my nose, AGAIN! He also is now terrified of flies and always thinks they are attacking him. Not sure where that phobia came from? He is definitely the family entertainer.

Avery's world these days is about the same. Days consisting of talking, talking, and more talking. And when she is not talking to someone or something, she loves to color and "write stories", and her new favorite subject is addition. She is getting too smart for this mama!

As for Ben, well, it's happened. Yes, he has turned, *ahem* thirty. Yes, sorry hun, it's out there now! But I'd say he is coping quite well and we went on a fabulous birthday trip to ease the pain.

I made that dress! Yep, the girl who can barely sew on a button may have found a new hobby!

Avery, Gray and their best bud, Maddi eating Scotcheroos!

Graysen learned to feed Harley and he is very excited about it.

Avery reading to Graysen in their "book nook". So sweet.

Family time at the park in Monterey.
