I'm a little behind in posting some pictures. I've added a lot taken with my iphone, but here are some taken with the good camera.
This is Connor getting on the bus for the last day of school. We loved his bus driver...and his teacher. Though I am really enjoying having more time with this kid!
Mitchell is now 15 months old. My does time fly. He is super cute. Take a look. When he spotted me with the camera...he came towards me like lightening. I'll post more about his 15 months status, but haven't been able to hold him still for pictures.
Such a happy guy!
Over the last few weeks, he was standing up for us...but still no walking. He did take a few steps for me on Wednesday evening. (June 16th)
Here he is with PopPop. Wednesday night was a big night. After Craig asking several times....
he finally got his first haircut. It was so hard to see the curls go away. But he does look so stinking adorable! Though he looks a little more grown up, which I just cannot handle.
Another milestone, I hinted at earlier....
Connor and Craig enjoyed their first baseball game together. The Phillies played Cleveland. It was a gorgeous night for a game.
Another milestone. We cut down the big tree in our front yard. It was growing crooked and was starting to bend way out...
So on Saturday, Craig brought out the chain saw...and went to work.
We thought the boys would like to watch and help a little. Connor did not. he was so upset that we were taking the tree down! He cried and screamed. Oh, my. He does not like change. In the end I just held him and explained why Daddy was taking the tree down. After a few hugs he was okay.
The boys did help Craig load some limbs, but it was so hot. So they quickly faded and went inside. (So did I!)
The front view of our house looks really different now. I'll have to take a picture. I like that I can see the bus stop from the house now. Sounds simple, but it'll help me when I'm running late this fall!
A few other important milestones. As of May 25, Sawyer does not have a pacifier and he is sleeping in a big boy bed. (A queen size!!!) Also, we are working on potty training with him. He's doing great. (A year ahead of the other boys! Alleluia!!)
Our beloved Pastor retired today. It was a sad, uplifting service. We will miss him deeply, but are excited to see what God has in store as we move forward. Kent will never be replaced...and will always hold a special place inour heart, but we will welcome our new pastor with all our hearts.
