Baby Stella!!

We are so excited to have a new cousin baby Stella. There is nothing like a new baby and she is such a precious and tiny little girl, we just love her. I was lucky enough to get to go to Utah and spend a few days with her before she was able to come home. We got to spend time with lots of family and friends and enjoy the cool weather although my kids were in a panic to see her. They got to meet her on Fathers Day and at one point while Hannah was holding her I saw Hannah and Grace having some big conversation. The baby was actually awake and was listening to the girls. I think a future shopping trip might have been being planned! I can't wait!!

Every time Hannah has held Stella the baby has fallen to sleep. Hannah is convinced that she has the magic touch!

Sprinkles, Saguraro Lake, and Skiing!

We are having a great summer and couldn't wait to head to Sprinkles in Scottsdale for a cupcake. They are sooo good! I had the red velvet and let me say it was unbelievable! The kids had a great time and Grace even got to wear her hair bows with cupcakes on them.

This week we also had company in town and had a fun trip to the lake. Our friend Katie used to work for Sea World as a trick skiier. We had a great time watching all the tricks and she was even able to teach Sam how to water ski. He was able to get up on the skis thanks to Katie being such a great teacher. Nowwe just need someone to get him wakeboarding!

Hooray for Summer!

So far this summer all the kids want to do is play in the water.

We have had fun at swimming lessons, pool parties, splash parks and the sprinklers!

Sam also has lost his other front tooth leaving him with a HUGE gap in his teeth.
