Rainy day in Katy!

Monday, July 26, 2010:

The rain held off long enough for me to get all of my errands completed today! I am almost finished making a Jon Jon for Simon. I just need to add the button holes and get it monogrammed. But I am pretty proud of myself!



After lunch our friends Kate, Jack and Claire came over to play. They brought us sugar cookies and icing to decorate. Will ate his before I could get a picture :-) So these are Louis' creations!



Once they left it started raining cats and dogs here in Katy! So they boys and I played Lego's and board games. We just finished dinner and this is what we are up to next - POPCORN and a movie! What a great way to end the day :-)

Waiting patiently for their popcorn!

It's ready! Love that Will is in the background! LOVE HIM!

Louis' cookie creations. Thank you Mrs. Kate!

Party of FIVE!

Sunday, July 25, 2010

Simon is now twelve days old! His belly cord has fallen off and he completed his newborn screening. He is actually a great shopping partner! He blows and goes with us and all of our FUN adventures. Will is so helpful and pushes his infant stroller. When Louis and Simon are both asleep together as we are out and Will and I each get a stroller...too cute! And get some extra time in!


Will and I went on a dinner date this week with his former Kindergarten teacher and classmates. Good times! Friday night Thomas grilled fish and veggies and we watched a family movie.


Saturday we had another birthday party at our Clubhouse. The boys swam, slide, and splashed away :-) Afterwards we went to mass and to Simon's first Astros game! He slept through the entire game! The boys loved sitting three rows behind the Astros dug-out. Every time the players exit the field, they always made it a point to way to our sweet boys!


Boys sporting their new Astros shirts I made for them!

Close up!

Simon right before his bath! Look at his rolls :-)

Fun with Simon!

Saturday, July 17, 2010:

Simon is now 4 days old and we have been home for two days and haven't skipped a beat! We went shopping yesterday and went to Simon's first doctors appointment. Early this morning, Thomas took Will and Louis fishing in a pond right by our house! They had a great time and even caught a fish!
Afterwards we went to Anna's first birthday party, went shopping in Sugar Land and we are about to go over to our neighbors house to relax and let our kiddos play! Here are a few pictures of our first two days home.

Fourth of July Weekend Celebration!

I just love when we have four day weekends together! They are usually jammed packed with fun, food, and friends! And we have the BEST! Thomas cooked breakfast lunch and dinner Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday! Such a nice treat! He is a great cook, father, and husband! We can't wait to welcome in Simon to our sweet little family. Here are a few pictures of our fourth of July long weekend celebration! Our neighborhood party, La Centerra, ball-all stars, fireworks, and swimming!

Sunday night - La Centerra in Katy fireworks display was the best yet! Our neighbors met us there and they had a blast hanging out in the back of Thomas' truck with their glow sticks! Precious family!

Louis was asleep before we left the parking lot. Will on the other hand was ready to pop fireworks with all of our cul-de-sac clan and he stayed up until almost midnight...having a blast!

Louis hanging out at the baseball fields waiting on big brother to finish practice!


A few more onesies I made - toile, pokadot, damask, giraffe, and st louis colors!

Will waiting for the fireworks to begin Sunday evening.

Our neighborhood had a great party Saturday evening at our clubhouse...late until the fireworks display at 9:30. The boys stayed up and had such a fun time We swam, ate popcorn, ice cream, and had a great time!

Waiting for the fireworks to begin!
