June and July

Here is a random sampling of pictures from June and July. We've been very busy with swimming lessons, 

 Smiling as always

 Olivia has continued to adjust well to her brother and is getting better with him every day

 Goofing off with Dad  :)

 My little angel looking so grown up in her Aggie outfit and boots

 The best daddy in the world. He is so good with those kids.

 Happy Father's Day to the two most important men in my life! :)

Olivia loved swimming lessons this year - I could only get one picture because she is so adventurous that if I stepped back to take a picture she did her best to try swimming on her own. 

 Any time I am not busy with something else this is what I am doing and I love every minute of it. What a lucky girl I am!

Lucas - 6 Months

It's so hard to believe our little man is already 6 months old. He is the happiest baby in the world and is finally getting into a better sleep routine. He weighs 16 and a half pounds and is 26.25 inches long and is a joy every minute of the day.

Lucas - 5 Months

Too cute for words!!

Miscellaneous Fun

Here are a few random shots during the first few crazy months of Lucas' life:

 Olivia reading Lucas and Grammie a story - complete with tiara and pjs :)

First project @ Home Depot with dad - a piggy bank

Lucas has been a very early smiler and so easygoing - he smiles even when he's tired and cranky

 Goofing off with Dad :)

 My little treasures - 03/30

Reading her brother a story (he listens, too!)

 Mother's Day

 Olivia helping out at Lucas' four month checkup

We are so blessed!

Easter

We went a-visiting to El Campo for Easter this year after church in the morning. Olivia had a wonderful time hunting for eggs - so much so that we still talk about it sometimes and she keeps her sparkly eggs in her Easter basket to play with all year round :)

 In our Easter finery. Poor Lucas was very tired.

 Hunting for eggs with her cousin Aaron :)

 Nana helping!
