Father's Day Patio Make Over Suprise!

Bill was away this weekend enjoying the US Open with my dad which provided me with the perfect opportunity revamp our patio and suprise him!! I used pea pebbles and a rubber edging on the sides for a much cleaner and neater look. The kids and I also got him a charcoal grill and accessories!! Now he just needs to get home and see it!! :0)

June 2011

June has been a busy month so far for us as well. I was lucky enough to be offered a long-term substitute position teaching Extended School Year (ESY; summer school) for special needs children here on base. That started last week and runs until the middle of July Monday-Thursday for half days. I am loving being back in a classroom and the students I have are wonderful! We also got very lucky that a dear friends' daughter is home from college and needed a job for the summer and accepted our offer to sit our kiddos!

Quinlan had his 6 month "birthday" on the 15th and at his check up he weighed 15.11lbs and was about 28.5inches(the nurse was having some issues shall we say) but this puts him in the 5-10% for weight and 95% for height. He is eating baby food now, rolling over front and back and babbling all the time. I have no doubt soon enough he will be mobile!

May 2011

May was a busy, fun-filled month for us! We visited the natural history museum and thoroughly enjoyed the dinosaurs and many other enhibits they have! I have no doubt we will be back! We also went to Mount Vernon with our good friends the Rupperts over Memorial Day weekend and were all very impressed with George Washington's home. The kids enjoyed taking a mule ride and exploring his house and running up and down the very large hill. Quinlan enjoyed all our excursions and moving from his baby bath tub to a new bath seat! He loves splashing his legs around and playing with the toys on top!! For more pictures check out the link below:
