If Gavin listens to one thing I say ....

When you grow up with 2 big sisters

Gavin getting his nails done by Carli at her beauty salon.  Not sure he was the best client, but he was the only willing client.  Following nail painting he decided to do Dora super babies hair.  Yes, he also learned hair techniques from his sister.  Gavin was quick to say his baby looked so boo-a-full!

family beach time fun

Today we enjoyed the beach club.  We spent a lot of time on the beach today.  Poppa and Lexi found some baby shrimp while Carli and Gavin hung out digging in the sand.

Lexi's first piano lesson

Today Lexi started piano.  Lexi is very much into her dance and tennis, so not so sure how far we will go with the piano.  We will see how it goes.  After the first lesson, she reports she loves it and needs a piano!

Relaxing and celebrating 10 years

Not sure who was more excited for the weekend .... Rich and I or the girls as they were getting to have a weekend sleepover getaway with auntie Laurie and Ella.  Rich and I had an amazing time.  We were able to relax, lay by the pool sans children and have some great meals.  The girls had just as much fun and of course came home exhausted.  Their weekend consisted of a walk to Mema's (with baby dolls and strollers of course), the movies, water park, ice cream, church and late nights of course mixed in with some extra snuggling time from Ella and auntie Laurie.

a family zoo trip

The kids always love going to the zoo and the zoo is great for all ages. Oddly enough, even with the 100 degree Florida heat the zoo is not that bad.  Most of the zoo is pretty shaded and they have a water sprinkler area as well.  We run through the zoo in a couple of hours.  We could probably walk it with our eyes closed after all of our zoo trips! I think we have all become zoo animal experts.

pool time!

Passing our Saturday afternoon by with a little swimming!
