I found this field of blue salvia and I couldn't wait to photograph Gracie in it! I love it when she is a willing model! I have posted a few other of my favorites over on my photography blog Jody Marie Photography if you want to check them out.

It's a hot one! Already in the high 90's here, pushing 100! Notice a different pool? Yes, we killed another one, hopefully this one is a little more durable for my monsters! :o)

Gracie is so proud of herself! She can swing all by herself! I think all the baby in her is gone :o( She is growing so fast and I just can't believe how fast it goes! Slow down girl, your mama needs a baby in the house!

Good news , Gracie is feeling better today, so we made our way to the dentist to get our teeth cleaned! Gracie did awesome, she actually let them clean her teeth today! Yea!! Cooper, not so good, he had three cavities. Although two were on baby teeth that are about to fall out, so he only had to have one fixed. And Zak had no cavities! I asked for another referral to an orthodontist to get a second opinion for Zak. We started to see an ortho about a year and half ago and she has wanted to wait til Zak was 11 or so. So we will go to the other ortho and see what they recommend. Coop is also going to the ortho as the dentist believes Coop's mouth is more mature than Zak's. Who knows!

Poor Gracie doesn't feel well today. She has a cold and she has spent a lot of time snuggling me today. I sure hope she feels better tomorrow!

A family movie! The kids love it when we do this! We watched Bolt. The boys loved it, but Gracie is afraid of any movie where there is a villain. Poor girl, she can't even watch any of the princess movies yet!

We had to get out of the house today, so I took the kids out for a nice hike at one of the local nature parks. We had a picnic lunch in the back of the van and set out on our way. Zak he stirred up ant hills, Coop yelled at Zak to stop stirring up ant hills and Gracie kept saying uppy, uppy! A good time was had by all...
