July

July has been a pretty busy month for us. I was cooking dinner one night and Josh and I both heard a crash in the living room. Elle was watching TV so Jay was trying to aggrevate her and block the TV. He climbed from the top of the couch to the toy box and jumped onto the TV attempting to hang and pulled it off the shelf on top of himself. He was not hurt and the TV didn't appear to be damaged until we plugged it back in. NEVER a dull moment!

One of my patients brought me this birdhouse so I took the kids to buy art supplies to paint it. This kept them occupied for a while and they were both so intense.

Elle was intense and made sure every part was perfect.

Jay was pretty focused

We went to Owen's bday party at Chuck E Cheese. He goes to M&M with Elle and also they know one another from church.

I took the kids to the movies to see Malificient. I was concerned it might be too scarey but they loved it.

Jay had PJ day at school that day so we rolled on to the movies in his cubs PJs.

We went to Anna Cooper's bday party at Bristles where they got to paint a mermaid on canvas. Elle loved it. The girl that owns Bristles is also the art teacher at BDS (she and I knew each other from high school too)

To celebrate the 4th of July we took the kids to canebrake where they had cotton candy, dancing, food, jumpy houses, face painting, and a firework show. Elle stood in line for 45 minutes waiting to get her face painted. Needless to say we didn't wash her face for a couple of days so she could enjoy it.
