BASHA POOL

BASHA POOL and invited us along....

PARIS WAS SO EXCITED!

Every time we pass Sun Splash she screams and begs to go there some day. Well I figure we will start with something similar, smaller and a bit cheaper! She wanted to jump in the deep end right away, go in the whirl pool and COULD NOT WAIT for the big slide!

THANKS DANI FOR TAKIN HER!!!

TUSTIN 8 MONTHS OLD

WHEN IT'S TIME FOR BED, HE KNOWS IF PARIS IS IN HER BED TOO OR NOT
(they share a room)

IF SHE IS NOT HE WILL CRY BUT IF SHE IS HE LAYS RIGHT DOWN WITH OUT A SOUND AND GOES TO SLEEP!

HE GAVE ME KISSES ON DEMAND TONIGHT...

HE KNOWS WHEN I AM LEAVING AND CRIES

I USUALLY GET A BIG SMILE AND A FAST CRAWL TOWARDS ME WHEN I GET HOME

(FAVORITE PART OF COMING HOME)

HE HAS BEEN STANDING WITH OUT HOLDING ON TO ANYTHING...STILL NO WALKING (no signs of that being soon)

HE LOVES HIS SISTER, SHE MAKES HIM LAUGH!

HIS LAUGH...CONTAGIOUS AND QUITE POSSIBLY THE CUTEST SOUND IMAGINED!

HE LOOKS ME IN THE EYES WHEN I TALK TO HIM

HE STILL CUDDLES ME, I GET LOTS OF HUGS BEFORE ANY SLEEPY TIME!

HE RIDES BETTER IN THE CAR NOW

HE CONTINUES TO LOVE HIS BINKY AND BLANKET

STILL NO TEETH...

HAPPY 8 MONTHS BABY BOY

LOVE YOU

SHOW LOW TOURNY

driving in show low 1st day...
The past few years Justin and a few buddies have played in the SHOW LOW SOFTBALL TOURNAMENT, about 4 or 5 FAMILIES go up and stay with, the ever so gracious, Dewy DeWitt's parents! They have an amazing home and let us bombard their basement for a few days! So here is a lil of how the weekend went!

PART 1

THE GIRLS CHEERING ON THE BOYS!

Except poor Shanna who has twin 1 yr old boys, didn't get to sit much during the games, she was too busy doing this...

We were lucky enough to get the field that had a play ground close by for the kids...

















BACK AT THE HOUSE CAMI WORKED HER INCREDIBLE TALENT WITH KIDS AND PLAYED WITH THEM FOR HOURS
{this was just the begining, she played games, sang songs, watched movies}
after all the games and fun paris was having with Cami, I made her come take a bath before they put on the movie, as I was getting her ready she tells me

"mom I have decided you need to be funner"

do you just want a new mommy?

"nope just you be funner"

AND THEN SHE
PUTS THEM ALL TO SLEEP

{she did put them ALL to sleep but he was out first and this is the only pic I got ...}
MAN SHE IS THE GREATEST!

PART 2
Who could resist this guy...

nice boots Mark

ALL OF US CAMPED OUT AGAIN!

LOTS OF SLEEPING BABIES!


Tustin's first time allowed to play in the dirt! He would dig and show me and dig some more. I thought for sure he would put it straight to his mouth but he actually didn't, the only time he would put anything in his mouth is when he got a twig or a rock or something different. He sure did love getting dirty, crawling every where!
BREAK TIME

While waiting till the next game Cami and her mom took the kids out on a
NATURE WALK

where they hunted for BEARS!
All the kids just LOVED it! You could hear them out there in the woods chanting and singing and then you can hear them all SCREAM! To scare the bears of course! It was super cute and loads of fun, Paris couldn't stop talking about it and wouldn't let go of her pinecone she found all the way home! So much fun!

GAME OVER...WE WON! {D division} lol don't tell!
