Caleb's 1st Sports Class

This week Caleb started his sports skills class and he had a great time! They rotate through different sports--soccer, football, baseball, basketball and hockey. They started off the class stretching, ran a little, and then worked on soccer. They taught them to not use their hands so they kept saying "Good-bye hands!"...so cute! I wasn't sure what he would think about it but he loved every minute! I was also a little nervous about how Caroline would react to not getting to participate but she loved watching Caleb run and play. Plus, she gets to start dance class in a few weeks! I took pictures before we left but didn't get any during the class. I'll try to take some next week!

Here's Caleb very excited about getting to go to class!

Family Reunion

Last weekend we had a family reunion for my dad's side of the family at my aunt and uncle's house. We had a great time swimming, eating bbq, and visiting with everyone. Here are a few pics from the day.

Working out can make a girl tired!

Brett works out in our garage and a couple of times recently Caroline has joined him! She loves to watch the video and follow along. After she works out she is very tired and needs a little brownie and ice cream and then some time watching tv with her brother!

Too Hot to Handle

On Saturday Katie, Angie and I ran in the Too Hot to Handle 5K! We had a great time! The weather turned out to be really nice and the race was a lot of fun! Here are some before and after pics! Can't wait until the next one girls!

What we've been up to.....

We've been staying busy around here this summer but I have been horrible about taking pictures! A few weeks ago we stayed a few nights at Nana and Pawpaw's and hung out with our cousins, Emma and Maddie. We went to an IMAX movie, to a music class, out to eat, and to see Up. We had a great time but I have no pictures to show!

We're also still working on the whole potty training thing. Caleb and Caroline are doing good and mommy is trying to not get too frustrated!

Here are some pictures of the things Caleb and Caroline have been enjoying doing around here lately. Caleb loves the Cars movie and is obsessed with all of the characters. His favorite thing to do it play with all of his cars. Caroline is more of the artist and loves to do crafts. And, they have both loved playing in the little pool in the backyard. They think it's so funny to spray each other with the hose!

Happy 4th of July!

On Friday we headed over to spend the weekend with Nana, Pawpaw, Amy, Jonathan, Emma and Maddie. That afternoon the kids played on the slip 'n slide in the backyard and we had some delicious steaks that Pawpaw grilled for us. After the kids were asleep Brett and I and Amy and Jonathan went to see "The Hangover". It was so funny and we had a great time being able to go a movie! On Saturday morning the guys played golf and the girls, plus Caleb, went to a parade in Amy and Jonathan's neighborhood. After the parade we changed clothes and headed to the pool. The kids had a great time splashing around in the pool. After a great lunch by the pool Brett took Caleb into the bigger pool where he jumped off the diving board over and over! He loved every minute of it! That afternoon we all took naps and then headed back home. It was a great 4th!

Swimming Lessons

For the past two weeks Caleb and Caroline have been taking swimming lessons. Last year Caleb screamed the entire first week but this year he loved every minute of lessons! Caroline was a little more cautious but still had fun. They loved blowing bubbles and Caleb had a blast jumping off the diving board. They both had a great time and are already looking forward to next year! Here are some pictures taken on during their last class.
