Caught in the act

Over the past month, I've caught some great memories on my phone.  I have this super nice camera, but I find I take more pictures with my phone these days. Here are a few of my favorites...

A sign Josh made for me one morning. He wakes up super early (6:15 am on the dot most mornings), so Chris and I have trained him to stay in his room and keep busy. He usually makes us pictures, then scampers across the house and slides them under our bedroom door for us to discover when we wake up.  Super sweet.  Here is one of the best ever.  He was practicing his spelling. It reads (in translation):

Mother

Newspaper

Wrecking Ball

Robot

For obvious reasons, I love this one! 

Josh is earning his keep!

Big brother pushing his baby sister at the park. 

 Emily has reached the "lay in a ball" stage and is constantly grabbing her toes.

 So cute!

Emily makes the cutest faces when we go in for a kiss. She looks mad, but really she is just trying to eat Chris' nose while he is within reach. Watch out! She will try and put ANYTHING in her mouth!

"Hummm, let me think..."

Josh is busy at work at Chris' his office downtown.

Lots to do, lots to do. 

Getting wet on a hot day at the Arboretum. 

Emily taking a bubble bath in Pickle's sink.

 She loves it!

As I was loading up Emily in the car, I turn around in the driveway and find this. 

He proceeded to the grocery store without changing.

Well, hello cutie! 

Cooking with Pickles. 

She always lets him take a lick. 

Lucky kid. 

Early, scratch that...

Mommy took the big Gator out for a spin. 

What? 

Is this not normal? 

It was "Hang your kid's swing" day on our street.

Chris and our neighbor climbing the trees to hang new swings in the front yard. 

Fruits of his labor! The kids LOVE to swing in their swings.  

 Josh caught in the act of blowing us kisses from the stage during his Pre-K graduation.

That only lasted one night.
