Happy Father's Day!

 Jackson's card he made Greg really says it all! These boys are so lucky to have a daddy who LOVES to play with them!  We had the best day celebrating daddy! Father's day started off with some early morning golf  and then we went to the outlets and bought him some new shoes,  We went out to lunch, had ice cream and then came home to swim.While the boys swam, I cooked his favorite dinner...chicken and rice and made his favorite desssert...chocolate delight.  Perfect family day! We love you!!





Throwing pennies in the fountain at the outlets. He loves it!

 I have been experimenting with cutting out Beckett's nap and some days he does fine, but others I find him like this....

 Jackson had a super fun super hero swim party for his buddy Jack. Jackson and Aidan have been friends now since 18 they were 18 months old. Even though they don't go to the same school, they are still the best of buds!

Check out Jack's cake.He loves otters so he got an otter cake holding a sea urchin. Reminded me of Steel Magnolias but this cake wasn't red velvet on the inside!!

One night I got up from the couch to go to bed and looked over to find this....he cracks me up!!

 This is favorite post dinner activity....bowling.

 It's not regular bowling though...they have to go all the way down to the end of the driveway, run as fast as they can, and then release the ball. I love the pure joy on his face!!

 So intense!

 Baseball has come to an end. Jackson did great as first baseman in all stars. He was sad to see it come to an end and can't wait for fall ball!

 6U All stars

 The coaches. Poor Greg was the pitcher and I know he felt a lot of pressure. He did great though and had very few strike outs :)

 We have been doing swim lessons with Billy every Wednesday. Beckett is doing great. He can now roll over to take a breath and then roll back over and start swimming again.

 Here he is rolling over to get a breath.

 Billy was a competitive swimmer and used to be the director at Aqua Tots, so I am also having him work with Jackson on his strokes. Here he is doing the back stroke. Billy really wants Jackson to get into competitive swimming. He thinks he would be really good at it. I am having a hard time making the commitment, but we will see!

 This is another new favorite toy. Qixels. You build the design and then spray it with water. After 20 minutes, the little squares stick together. It's pretty cute and you really have to use your fine motor skills to place the pegs.

 Another after dinner favorite. Playing catch. Jackson literally plays baseball everyday. He will throw the ball against the house when he doesn't have someone to play with and then as soon as Greg gets home, he wants to catch fly balls.

 This one has to also be in on the action. Here he is catching a grounder. :)

 We also have a 2 person band now in our house. Jackson has been begging to learn to play the guitar. Greg decided to start with the ukulale. Now that Jackson can read, we are going to set him up with some lessons. These 2 love putting on shows for us! Beckett on the piano and Jackson on the ukulale. Jackson will watch youtube video instructions on how to play and has learned a couple of cords. We leave this week for the Kiawah for the 4th and we can't wait! Our friends the Konops are coming with us again so it should be a lot of fun!!
