Danny!

We are so blessed to have this little sweety in our family! He is a good sleeper, a good eater, and he puts up with being ignored. What more could you ask for? Being a mom is hard, but this little guy and his brothers and sister always remind me that it is so worth it and so wonderful.

And of course these little ones are pretty perfect also.

JCBD

We think we have some pretty great kids. While we haven't taken any big trips or vacations this summer, we've stayed busy.

Jessica and Chandler took swim lessons. Jessica got her ears pierced, again (they grew in from last time) and developed a love (obsession?) for Legos. Benjamin turned 2 and loved his dinosaur cake. They all loved the occasional night when we'd let them go to sleep in our bed. It was entertaining to see how they ended up. And of course, they all loved smothering Danny with hugs and kisses.

New Additions

Michael's office got a couple new additions recently. He commissioned a painting from Jessica that he's gotten a lot of compliments about. She's definitely our little artist.

The second addition is worth bragging about. This is proof of our second (and hopefully last) BAR admission! Woo Hoo! We are so proud of Michael and all of the hard work he put in. He's really liking his new job and the fact that he's done with that test. :)

4th of July

I was shocked how few 4th of July parades there are here in Central Florida. But a friend mentioned one in a town nearby. It was fun and short (the best kind) and the kids got WAY too much candy from the floats. That night we joined some friends for BBQ and fireworks.

Grandma and Papa's Visit

A couple weeks after Danny was born, Grandma and Papa came to visit. They went to Downtown Disney, the beach, the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse, and LegoLand, as well as just hanging out and playing at home. Daniel was also blessed while they were here. It was great to have them!
