Helping Daddy water
This is what happens when you skip your nap. Dinner is so boring it will put you to sleep.



Mmmmmmmmm hose water!

Grady insisted we go on the train and the zoo. If he had it his way, we would have stayed on it the whole time.

Ice cream sandwiches!

Nothing beats ice cream on a hot summer day.

Take me out to the ball game

We headed down to a Clippers game for dollar day. The kids had fun. Anyplace they can walk around, eat and people watch is typically a hit. They are easy to please. They loved their baseball caps and even left them on the whole time. Luckily it was dead because as you can see our bleacher seats were in the 90 degree sun. We ended up hanging by third base in the nice seats and more importantly the shade.

Nothing like a good book after a baseball game!

Gardening by the Garage

Yard work is a bit challenging with two kids. It takes 10 times longer and results in a much bigger mess. Grady really enjoys it. He loves taking the weeds to the trash bin. Gwen prefers to swing, which makes yard work difficult.

Gwen made another poo poo on the potty!

This crocodile had no chance! Crikey!

Tickling mommy!

Road to paradise!

Mommy is slowly turning into a lobster.

Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for watching the kids while we took off to Florida.

Yard work was much easier after vacation with 2 tiny helpers.

Snack time!

Trip to Cosi, sadly this is the only photo I have.

Grady's new golf cart. He pushed it all over the yard, even through the sprinkler.



Gwen organizing her furniture on the front porch of her house. The sprinkler is hitting her in the back!




Grady soaking wet and loving it.

Visit with Papa

Grady, Gwen and I decided to take a road trip to Papa's. We got to spend a lot of quality time with Grandma and Papa. The kids did great. As my dad said they are either 100% or asleep, there is not much in between. They did great in the car. At night time, Gwen pretty much crawled in her tent, begging to go to sleep and Grady let out a cry or two and passed out. To be honest, we were all exhausted by the end of the day. I was a little nervous taking a trip by myself with the twins, but Grandma and Papa helped out a lot. We had a jam packed 48 hours including a few parks, multiple meals out, the zoo and the Memphis Kiddie Park.

Having a snack at Papa's

Grady loved looking out Papa's window at birds, lawn mowers and motorcycles.

Train ride! Gwen was there, my arm just could not reach far enough to get her!


Grady is a little unsure of this train.

We did not even make it out of the zoo parking lot and Grady was already passed out.

Grady and Gwen ran into their friend Gina at the Memphis Kiddie Park, small world.


Grady waving to Grandma and Papa from the plane.


Gwen was not too sure about the car ride, I think she was willing to jump for her life.

The boat ride was a hit, Grady even went on again by himself.

Gina and Grady handing on for their lives!

Gwen and Papa taking a break at the park.

Sand, yes please!

I am not sure who had more fun, Grady or Papa?

Grady is a little unsure of having another woman this close. By the end they were holding hands and kissing each other good bye.

Grady really enjoyed his spaghetti dinner. After figuring out the penne noodle fit perfectly on his finger, there was no more food entering his belly!



Thank you Papa for letting us stay at your place! We had a wonderful time and cannot wait to do it again. Now I must go to sleep to recover!
