Will playing hide and seek in the middle of my Dad's ferns, groundcover, etc. Yes, he took a snack with him to hide!
Maggie in our friends' baby swing
Macy, Maggie, Molly
Eric may kill me for putting this picture on here, but Will did LOVE Molly's "fluffy" shoes
At Home Depot day last Saturday. This picture is probably only funny to those who know this is totally NOT Molly's cup of tea.
This is the baby swing set that my parents have in their backyard and these kids climbed all over it. For some reason, the swing was pretty popular. If there was a weight limit on here, safe to say we probably exceeded it.
The kids with their catamarans
Maggie's famous "busted" face
Mine and Erics' moms enjoying the cool of the fans under the patio-maybe our best investment yet!
I know I've been a bad blogger lately, but it has been such a busy few weeks with visitors! First my sister's girls were here for 8 days while Shayla was on vacation, then overlapping with that, Eric's Mom came into town! We had a great time with everyone and are so thankful for the time we had with them. Will always loves to be with Macy and Molly, of course, and then to get spoiled by Grandma too was the best! For those who don't know, she is from Scotland and is still very active in the Scottish community, especially Scottish dance, so she was in town to judge at the Arlington Highland Games this past weekend. After she finished up, it was time for a trip to the toy store where Will was literally piling everything into the cart that he saw! The rest of the week was spent trying out all the new stuff and trying to adjust Grandma to this Texas heat!
Also, I wanted to wish Maggie a Happy 15 Months. She was going to get her own blog, but I'm behind and then Father's Day is coming up so I was afraid I'd never get back to it! What a special little girl God has blessed our family with. She brings such joy into our home with her HUGE cheesy grins, her loving hugs and huge open mouth sugars, hilarious dances, imitations of all her favorite animals, the way she follows Will no matter what he is up to, how she needs a bow in her hair as soon as her outfit is on and how she loves to pick out her own shoes (even though they rarely match her outfit or each other!), how she eats from the second her eyes are open to the time they close at night and she still just weighs 18 pounds, how excited she gets when she sees a familiar face, her constant game of "peekaboo" and how much she loves to play it! She is really starting to talk now too. Some of my favorites are "Mommeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee", "Daddy", "Will"(it's about 3 syllables and is the cutest thing ever), bow, baby (she loves to love those sweet babies), any facial feature because she will grab onto whosever nose it is she's describing and laugh that mischevious laugh, and shoes. I love that her "Texas accent" is going to be just as pronounced as Will's!
Hope everyone has a Happy Father's Day!

I must say your kids are adorable and both have the cutest personalities and seem to just be such happy little kiddos--you are a pretty positive happy person though!! I also love the Maggie is such a girl with her bows and having to have them in her hair now. It must be so much fun to have a boy and a girl! They also play so well together-so fun! I am glad all is going well! Things are better on our end now that we figured it all out-I have so much to look forward to with him after looking at all the fun stuff that kids get into!!
