Our Pet Lady Bug

A couple of weeks ago the boys caught a pet lady bug.  The boys love their pet lady bug.  His name is Bob and yes our lady bug is a boy. 

 I have no idea how but the lady bug is still alive.  Every day the boys love getting the lady bug down and watching him crawl around.  The boys love their lady bug so much.  Hunter always says the lady bug is the best pet ever. 

 Then we had some more fun blowing our super bubbles.

 Cameron just figured out how to ride the swivel bike and he loves it.  He is so excited to be such a big boy.

Swimming

The weather is finally heating up and we are having so much fun swimming in the pool.  The boys love playing with daddy in the pool.

The boys thought it would be fun to bring their water guns.

However, notice Patrick with the giant gun and Cameron with the squirt bottle.

Not really a fair fight.

 So mom jumped in and got the squirt gun away so we could all soak daddy.

 Then the boys had some fun jumping and diving across the pool.  These boys are little fish and a little crazy in the water.

 Squirting and splashing around in the pool.
 The boys love swimming in the pool and are always asking to go swimming together.  We are looking forward to such a fun summer together.

Princess and Knight Birthday Fun

Tonight we were able to celebrate our cousins' fun birthdays.  We loved celebrating with our little knight and princess. 

It was such a fun party.

  Playing around in the bounce house.  We had fun with the little princess in the bounce house too but didn't get any pictures of her playing around.
Then the boys were able to make their knight shields. 

The boys had a great time decorating and designing their shields.

Dad decided to decorate Cameron and Cameron didn't seem to mind.

 The boys were so happy to be knights and protect their princess.
Then the boys had to shoot the bad guys down with their bow and arrows.

 Hunter got a trophy at the end and he was so immensely happy to have his trophy.

 Having a great time shooting all the bad guys and saving the princess.

 The great knight protector ready to save the princess.

 Even dad decided to jump in on the action.

 Singing Happy Birthday to the birthday boy and girl.

We had so much fun celebrating. 

Fruit Loops and Bouncy Houses

After breakfast I thought it would be fun to let the boys play with their food a bit.  So we decided to make fruit loop necklaces.  The boys loved stringing the necklaces and making them so big.

  They were so proud of their necklaces.

  The boys quickly enjoyed eating all of their hard work.
We had the bounce house that we borrowed for Hunter's birthday and the boys had a great time bouncing together.

In the past we have thought about getting a play set for the boys but after seeing how much the boys love the bounce house I'm now debating getting a bounce house.  Every day Hunter tells me he needs to get some exercise.  Cameron loves doing flips.  They both have so much fun and they love jumping with mom and dad so much.  It is definitely a fun family activity together.  Jumping in the bounce house sure makes you feel like a kid.  It  is so much fun.  I love my second childhood with these two. 

Cousin Fun

We decided to take a day trip down to see our cousins today. 

The boys loved playing with all of their cousins and are already asking when we can go back.

They had so much fun jumping on the trampoline, playing basketball, star wars, and feeding the chickens.  They had such a wonderful day.

The boys love all of their cousins.  We love our family so much.
