Splash Pad Fun



These boys light up my life everyday!

  Tanner is getting way too old and way too smart.  He gets a little bored with the younger kids activities sometimes but is a good sport about it. (Most of the time.)  He always wants to help and talks so sweetly to Parker and Carson.  Parker and Tanner are quite the wild pair.  Even though they are 6 years apart in age they still keep each other company.  Tanner is an amazing big brother!

 Parker is so happy and so energetic and loves his brothers so much.  He is always doing something and laughing while he does it!  He talks in the sweetest little voice to Carson and is teaching Carson everything.  Parker makes me smile and laugh everyday and amazes me with how much he is learning.  Jared only speaks Portuguese to Parker and to Carson.  It is amazing to hear Parker speak it and to see how much he understands when Jared talks to him.   My little Parker is such a mama's boy and I love it!

Carson is my little sweetie that is always smiling.  He understands so much and is finally starting to say more words. He points to his belly button, his nose and his mouth.  I love it! He is a bottomless pit and would eat all day if I let him.  He especially loves fruit!  And he takes after his mama and eats a delicious bowl of oatmeal every morning.  :)  Carson loves his brothers and wants to do everything they do.  He loves Jared and loves to snuggle with him.  As soon as Jared walks in the door Carson lets out a shriek and runs to him.  So sweet!

I am truly grateful to be a mom and to be able to stay home and enjoy these special memories with my kiddos.  They challenge me most days but melt my heart everyday.  I love my family and love to see how much things change each year. 

Anyways......

 We are staying busy and enjoying the summer around here.  The boys come to the gym with me every morning and we try to do something before naptime too.  I am trying to be better about taking pictures!  They just run so fast it's hard to snap any! 

Parker and Carson LOVE water, so the splashpad is an obvious choice.  The splash pad has a nice soft floor and has a big awning over it.! It's so nice because we can enjoy the summer heat but also be in the shade.   I love all of these pics.  Tanner was playing with a friend so he's not in these.  I met Jenna and her kids and they all loved playing in the water together.  Jared even came and met us after his class got out.  He is keeping so busy with his summer classes and studying.  So I really enjoy the times when we can spend time together enjoying our kids smiles.

Happy Summer!
