Emerson is 5 months!

We're in high chairs!

Well...sort of. Emerson doesn't quite fit into hers yet. The babies are doing better eating solid foods. They've had yams, carrots, peas, and occasionally prunes when needed:) Next week I may make some green beans. Emerson is the messiest eater I've ever seen in my whole life!

Our Final Farewell

Jeremy couldn't find her on Monday, and there she was, sleeping in the babies' closet!

On Monday we had to say our final goodbye to our little Miss Daisy. She has been on a downward spiral for about 6 months now. We are pretty sure that she had a brain tumor. A few weeks ago she had a horrible seizure and things got really bad. It was a very hard decision to put her down, but we knew it was best for her. She lived a life full of love and adventure and we were blessed to have her. Daisy brought so much love and joy to our lives and will be greatly missed.

Happy Independence Day!

We stayed in town for the babies first 4th of July. On Friday night there was a festival at the country club by our house. We walked there, had a picnic dinner and enjoyed the fireworks. We weren't sure if Blake and Emerson would like fireworks or be scared. They fell asleep in their stroller shortly before the fireworks started. But, when they heard the loud boom they both woke up. Immediately both of their eyes were glued to the sky. They LOVED it! On Saturday their Grammy came over and spent the afternoon with us and playing with the babies...fun weekend!

Our New Couch

We FINALLY got a much needed new couch. We bought it on Tuesday (the one year anniversary of the day I found out I was expecting) and it was delivered today. The babies looked so cute in their new outfits from cousins Peyton, Parker, and Pierce!

one of them was bound to spit up before the photo shoot was over:)

John's 40th Birthday

Over the weekend we went to the ranch (again!) to celebrate Jeremy's brother's 40th birthday. Just about all of our Arizona family members were there and we had a great time hanging out and eating lots of food!

Father's Day Weekend

We decided to go to the ranch for Jeremy's first Father's Day weekend. We got to Prescott and immediately went outside to see the amazing sunset.

The babies tried rice cereal for the first time on Friday night!
Blake...not so sure

Still not so sure

Emerson's turn

"Whoa! What is this stuff?!"

"Yum!"

Saturday was another amazing day. We started the morning by going for a walk and introducing the babies to the ranch animals.

Then we spent all afternoon hanging outside in the shade under a Giant Sequoia tree.

I love my boys!!!!

The dogs had fun too!

Getting ready to go home after a fun filled weekend.

Happy Father's Day to all the daddies out there... especially my dad who has been the best dad a girl could ever want. And, of course, my husband who I love more and more every day. Our babies are blessed to have such a loving wonderful dad!
