June Highlights!

This month has been so wonderful! It's been a fantastic start to summer and we are loving every minute of it. Many milestones were had this month. Carter is a preschool graduate! It's amazing to see how much he has learned and how much he has grown. My once quiet and shy guy made many new friends (including his new best friend Cole!) and learned lots of new skills. I was a little sad that preschool was over because we love Miss Aimee so much and I am really hoping that his kindergarten experience will be just as great. I get a little emotional when I think of far this kid has come. He overcomes every obstacle that comes his way and just continues to touch our hearts every day. He is so sweet and kind-hearted and full of joy and love. He currently loves all super heroes (especially Captain America, Spiderman, Iron Man, and Wolverine) and playing video games with his Daddy. He is an amazing big brother and cares for Archie so much. The two of them play together all day long, making my life as a mom quite easy. Archie wanders around miserable whenever Carter isn't around. (How am I going to get through 5 days a week next year with Carter in school?!)

So proud of our graduate!

Auntie Torrey brought balloons and stuffed kitties--best present ever!

At graduation dinner we learned that "Everyone loves Archie"

And just so we don't leave Archie out, this month was a HUGE milestone for him! Potty training was an immense success and our days of diapers are long behind us. I am thrilled!

For my birthday we went to CA Adventures and had a wonderful time. Ate lunch at Ariel's grotto, rode our favorite rides, and Dave, Carter, and I went on Radiator Springs Racers for the first time (so awesome!)

The boys get nervous around the princesses!

Cute little prince

What a great start to summer! I am determined to teach the boys to swim (or at least be comfortable in the water). We are going back to Hawaii in 2015 and I want these boys snorkeling with sea turtles!
