What we've been up to

This post is all about what we've been up to lately:

The Family

We've began geocaching thanks to Vern and Shelly's idea from their blog. This is our first 'cache' The boys absolutely love it! It's one big treasure hunt for them. It's been a really good family activity that we do together. We didn't even know how many were out there. This is the "Crooked Tree", we've walked past this tree many times on our walks near Penguin park.

It was found in a small hole on the back side. You can see it's sting hanging out.

Nate

Nate went to the eye dr and his exam revealed that his left eye is not were it should be. So, the Dr wanted to begin patching again. He had a choice of the patch or doing the drops that dialate your eye each day but he hates the drops. He's actually doing really well about it all. He willingly puts his patch on every day and was excited to get new glasses. His main motivation behind it all is because he wants to drive when he's older so he's doing everything he has too to make it happen. He now has 3 sets so there's no excuse not to wear them.

This set of glasses, according to his own words, are his "Velma" glasses from scooby doo.

Josh

Josh started football with the start smart program. He is having a lot of fun and enjoying learning some of the football basics. It's really cute to see him out there doing the different drills. We've had 2 practices now and it has been so blasted hot, near 110 degrees! We just need it to cool down- at least to the low 90's, that's not asking too much!

Colton

Now our little Colton boy, he just graduated to a big bed. We got a bunkbed for him and Audrey to share eventually. He's actually transitioned to the big bed really well. This is him below in his big boy bed. And just look at all the room that kid has to roll around in.

This is where he'd like to sleep but mommy and daddy won't let him cause it's the top bunk.

Audrey

She's just growing too fast! She now is pushing herself up off the ground with her hands and feet. Seriously I can't get enough of her- she is the best baby EVER! So I hope you enjoy these shots of my beautiful girl as much as I do!

Look at that pouty lip!
