My Kids, The Bullies

On Saturday night, Jadon took down, not one, but TWO kids. Ashton is just three days older than Jadon, and his big sister Arianna is six.


Not to be outdone, yesterday, poor baby Olivia laid in the floor helpless, as Macy trampled her in a WWE-like take down...




Obviously I'm kidding ;) Jadon had an awesome playdate with Auntie Em's friend Sarah's adorable kiddos, while they went to a Christian concert and dinner with friends from their small group for Em's b-day. The boys were a little slow to warm up, but by the end of the night, they were literally chasing each other around with toys, yelling/giggling at the top of their tiny lungs, causing Jamie and I to question how we would ever handle more than two kids. Oh my! It was so fun to watch them, even when they struggled with sharing. 'Tis part of life, boys. They were gracious enough to give Macy a joint flute lesson though.




She thought she was big :)
Yesterday, we had Trevor, Maria, and baby Olivia over for lunch and some playtime. Olivia is just eight days younger than Macy, and is just the sweetest little baby you will ever meet. Her parents are pretty great too ;) Everytime we get together with Trevor and Maria, we have such great conversations. We'll look at the clock and realize five or more hours have passed, always wishing our schedules allowed for more time together.



While they were here, Olivia had her first taste of solid finger food, some of Macy's organic puffy Os. We think she liked them :) Have you ever seen such beautiful blue eyes??? She's a doll!


Looking forward to more playdates with more friends soon :)
