My Little Stud

This little boy loves to wear his glasses.  And he loves to climb.  Anything.  He has no fear at all.  And that makes his momma have LOTS of grey hair!

Graham and His Lady Browns

Graham LOVES these dogs.  I mean really loves these dogs.  They both sleep in our bedroom and every morning Graham insists on going in to wake them up.  He snuggles up to them in our bed, hugs on both of them so gently.  Then tells the girls it's time to go outside.  He puts their collars on and opens the door for them.  So very sweet.  And who would have ever thought Molly would lay on her back for this little boy???  I think she is pretty fond of Graham, too. 

Our First Trip to the Neighborhood Ice Cream Parlor

We have such a yummy, old fashioned ice cream store just 5 minutes from our house.  They have two special flavors each day, chocolate, and vanilla.  They make their ice cream fresh every day.  And it's delicious.  With the start of the really hot days, I couldn't resist taking the boys.  Not only did they polish off their individual ice cream dishes, they both wanted BIG SIPS of my root beer float.  SUCH fun!  And then we hosed them down when we got home.

It's SUMMERTIME

We are in the pool every day.  Really.  Both boys are now getting comfortable in the water.  Brooks will wear his puddle jumper and scoot around the pool (kick, kick, kick - some of the only words he chooses to use!).  And Graham's swimming lessons have taken a significant turn over the past month.  He is kicking around, jumping, swimming, everything.  He wakes up every day asking to go in his big pool.  And he LOVES our neighborhood pool because he can now touch in the entire "baby" pool area.

Graham and Kallen having a snack and watching a show outside.  What a life these kids lead!

Our first two tomatoes.  And most of the rest were eaten.  We have decided our garden will be forevermore be just an herb garden.  Which gives me a great excuse to get all my fresh veggies at our new Whole Foods!

Hide And Seek!

Cookout with Neighbors

We had a few of our neighbors over for a cookout recently - and what fun!!  Allie is one of Graham's favorite friends, and "Super Sam" is one of their favorite neighbors!!  (Forgive me for posting this, Samantha!.  I just had to because of the pure delight on Allie and Graham's faces.  You are awesome!)

The CUTEST Baby!

Sweet Brooks is affectionately called velcro in our house.  Because he is ALWAYS attached to me.  Which is just fine by him and by me.  What in the world is he going to do when his younger brother arrives in a couple months?! (Have I mentioned on this blog that we're having a third boy??  Probably not, yet.  We are!!  We think his name will be Tanner Wade Gift.  So ridiculously excited to add to our circus!!)

And when he's done wearing his glasses, he puts them under his neck just like his daddy....
