Our sweet boy continues to grow and learn. He is eating cereal most days, he began waking up in the middle of the night and apparently needed more to eat 🙂 Mark and Ben had their first guys weekend this month while Mallory and I joined Nonnie and Aunt Jenn at Disney. He's enjoying our new swing in the backyard and continues to delight in watching big sister anytime she's within sight. He's also decided that a morning nap is a great idea, at least this week.

 

 

They are so beautiful, I an honored to be their Mother.

Oh the unbelievable cuteness. Seriously.

Mallory's dance recital was tonight. I really don't have many words–SO MUCH CUTENESS. She loved it. She loved the costume, the dance, her little friends, her teacher, and had so much fun participating and then watching the rest of the program.

Their teacher danced on stage with them and did a great job of being a part of the dance not just the teacher. She was "hunting" dragonflies, with her dragonfly net helping direct the girls.

The dancers are "hiding" when their teacher turns around looking for the dragonflies. 

 

Now for the jumps across the pond:

  Time for a bow and applause 🙂

 

Sweet darling lovely girls. Such joy to watch you.

Update this thing already! You don't have to go back and chronicle all the events and fun stuff you missed this month. It's all captured in the photo a day area anyway. Just start now and go forward. If you have hours of uninterrupted time later, you can always back date some posts. Seriously.

My friend Lydia makes AMAZING cake confections. She made this 6 layer chocolate ganache cake and raspberry filled chocolate cupcakes for a baby shower. Seriously good. If you need a cake, you really REALLY need to call her!!

We headed to Houston this year instead of accompanying Ben to NAB. He helped navigate the airports for Mark's first air travel then went on to Vegas after splashing with Mallory in the pool.

The first day of swimming with Daddy was all about the turtle kick board and remembering the water.

The second day of pool time found Mallory reveling in the freedom of a flower float and playing with the motorized puffins that swam.

 

By the third day, I got a turn to play with her and she re-discovered jumping off the side into the water.

 

I see a fun summer of swimming ahead of us!
