Jayden comes to visit

For the past 4 summers (with exception to the summer Harris turned 1) Jayden (my nephew) has spent the summers with us! Lucky for him we move every summer so he has become quit the traveler, Austin, Kingwood, and now Virginia! We have had many adventures so far and will continue to explore into the heat of this miserable summer... can you tell I love being pregnant in the HOT summer Heat! We have made a trip to the White House, George Washington's estate, Gone Golfing, spent the day in the park at the lake ridding the train, playing at the play ground, at the mall playground (it nice and cool) gone to see a few movies and play hard every day with all our new friends! In the weeks to come we have a trip planned to Willimsberg, Baltimore, and to DC to check out all the fun museums. we will be busy all summer and this momma will sure be tired! So happy you here Jay we love you!

My baby is growing up!

I can not believe how time flies when your having FUN!!! Harris had his 4th Birthday this past Saturday, we had a small celebration with Colby's family and our neighbors from Bosnia. With a cookout, cake and present time it was short and sweet (easy for mommy who is know 7.5 months prego with Jackson) but just perfect for our little guy! Harris has been telling everyone for months he wanted a PIZZA cake and a bike for his birthday... well this momma is no good a cake decorating(as you all know from my pictures) so I have been stressing for months wondering how I was going to pull this on off. I contacted several bakers in the are and they were all booked for the weekend of his party, so I Google cake ideas found what I thought to be a simple one bought the items I needed to construct my master piece and NOTHING that's what I go Nothing, the cake turned out horrible it looked like I gave Harris the icing and said have at it~ maybe that's what I tell people in the future "I just let Harris go to town on this cake!" Oh well he had Fun and thats all that matters.... right? As for the bike, Mimi and I got up super early Saturday am and went all around town to find the perfect bike and after the 3rd store we were successful with our mission! We let Harris open all is other gifts then brought in the bike... again NOTHING! He looks at it and said "Oh my new bike" then turned around and started playing with his new game Hungry Hippo. Kids are so funny! Mimi and I were so excited and he could have cared less... in the past few days he has started to show interested in his New Toy.

Happy Birthday Harris we love you!!!
