Just not right

Peter is out of control!

Within this week, he went from doing the army crawl to a real crawl, then from crawling to sitting back up, then to pulling himself up on one stair, then two, then climbing completely up one step.  WHAT?  This is not supposed to happen so quickly!

The boys set up a fun ride for him.  They fill the laundry basket with toys and slide him around the floor.  He LOVES it!  Oh, the joys of being a little brother!  What a lucky kid to have so much love and attention.

Independence Day

Our first one in Allen… there’s only one thing to do:  Allen USA!  Concerts, funnel cakes, bounce houses, free stuff from vendors, fireworks.  You can’t beat it!

We enjoyed a renovated fire truck before we found out that the owner was a relative of our neighbors

It even had the biggest flag at the whole celebration.

The twins ended with a little archery lesson.   They did great!

We had some tired and sweaty little boys when we got home.  We fed everyone and sent them to rest before the fireworks started after 9.  When Scott when to wake them up, they all snuck back into bed before he could get them into the car!

Happy 4th, Y’all!
