Elizabeth Lost Her First Tooth!

We noticed a week or two ago that one of Elizabeth's grown-up teeth was coming in behind her baby teeth. Yikes! After talking with a friend about it, we thought we would have to go to the dentist to get her teeth pulled. We decided to check to see if her teeth were loose at all before heading to the dentist. Thank the Lord, 2 of her bottom teeth were found to be loose. One of them came out today! A little hard to tell because her grown-up tooth is already coming in, but hooray for Elizabeth!

Last Minute Camping Trip

Our kids love to go camping in our little tent trailer. We decided to see if there were any camping spots available for a one night get-a-away. Our Saturdays will soon be filled with flag football games for Owen and soccer games for Elizabeth so we thought we'd take this opportunity to go away before our busy sports seasons begin. Camping is always a little more work for mommy and daddy but to see how much delight the kids have makes it all worth it, right? We really did have a wonderful time, going on a hike, riding bikes and just relaxing in the trailer. The Lord provided beautiful weather and precious memories once again. What a blessing.

14 Months Old and Elizabeth's First Soccer Practice

Adam is 14 months old today! You can see from the picture below how active he is. He was laughing hysterically trying to grab my camera as I was taking this picture of him. He is so fun, playful and exhausting all rolled into one. Oh, life with a one year old! We love it and are so thankful for our little man.
As for Elizabeth: She is old enough to be on an AYSO soccer team and daddy is her coach this year. She has been counting down the days until her first practice and it finally came today. Daddy said she was a superstar. It will be so fun to watch her this season. More highlights of her season will be coming this fall.

Summer Fun Continues Even Though School is in Session!

School started for both Owen and Elizabeth towards the end of July but we were still having visitors up until the night before school. Summer has continued as our family is returning back into our daily school routine. Some fun outings we have had with our friends are shown below: The Pelascini Family came down for a visit and our families went to the zoo, a Padre Game and just hung out at our place. We also had a fun trip to Sea World with the Taylor cousins. Even though school has already begun, we squeezed in a visit to Legoland and Legoland waterpark. Thank you Dziadek and Babcia! Also below is Owen's new first grade teacher, Elizabeth's 2nd and last year of preschool teachers and sweet Adam enjoying a beautiful day at the park on a swing. One of his favorite things to do right now.:) We are so thankful for such healthy and active kiddos. We are trying to take in every new moment because these years are already flying by.
