Daily Life - May

 Here is our month of May in cell phone pictures!

Cole being a good little shopping buddy and having a toe snack!
Sweet sleeping boy
Enjoying a day at the park
Girl time snuggles
Cole just loves Stormie these days!
He's always seeking her out and reaching for her if she's close by.
Another Mexican food lover in our family, shocker!

Poor baby got pooped on by a bird in a parking lot one day. Of course, he had no clue.... we couldn't decide if it was the funniest or saddest thing I'd ever seen! The big kids thought it was hilarious. And our bird enthusiast, Ella, wanted to know what kind of bird it was, if it was a mourning dove. HAHA!

Oh cutie! He loves his puffs!!
We love eating dinner outback, especially when it's messy!!
Posing for a picture one day before school in her cute new outfit from Nana!
Carter and Cole love their guy time after school.
He even lets him pull his hair :)


Cole has discovered trash cans :/
So much rain this month! This umbrella and those boots have gotten some good use recently!


And we've splashed in more than a few puddles.
The kids did go to the pool with Eric on a couple of our dry days.... but it was cold!

This little stinker just finding things to mess with


Ella was playing 'airplane' with her stuffed animals.

Getting in more trouble!
Cute little feet peeking out from under the hiney.
Awwww, poor baby got dressed up in his sisters apron!

I got a horrible stomach bug a few weekends ago (thank goodness it happened to be on a Sunday and Eric was home). I locked myself in my bedroom to keep away from everyone so I wouldn't spread it. But I still had to nurse Cole. So this is what I came up with. Eric brought him in to me, and Cole actually laughed out loud when he saw me with this on my face. HA! But it worked! Didn't spread it to anyone, thank goodness!
Relax, you're at Target!
:)
Sweet smile. He loves the door stop springs and the funny sound the make. :)
Obsessed with his school year book!
Ella had a play date with a school friend, and Cole enjoyed the trampolines, too.


He loves looking out this window and the back door.
The kids went up in Cole's room first thing one morning when he was awake, and he was so happy to see them! He laughed and cooed, it was so cute! See their heads hanging over the crib there? Loved watching them all interact on the monitor.
Carter hasn't napped in forever, and he actually fell asleep on Memorial Day when we were all having 'rest time'. A big storm came rolling through, and I guess he was pretty relaxed laying there watching it out the window :)
Had to sneak in for a pic
Pulling up on everything now!
Can't tell here, but he was pretty mad a me and Ella for trying to stuff him into her baby stroller. HA!


He loves trying new foods! Veggie straws are a favorite right now.
With all this crazy rain, the lake near us has really started to rise. We drove around last weekend to take a look. This is at our old neighborhood. The lake is covering a lot of the walking bath back behind the houses on our old street.

 See those fences? Those are the backyards of our neighbors.....
 That is the back side of our old fence.... see the water back there?
 Water is approaching next door neighbors yard. So crazy!!
The we went to check out a local park by the lake. The amphitheater is mostly under water.

Bathrooms almost flooded. Those light poles stand on the boat ramp and in it's parking lot, which are both completely under water.
That's a restaurant with a big beach behind it, that is obviously fully submerged as well.

Back porch of the restaurant where the beach should be.
parking lot from the front porch of the restaurant
Just crazy! It's been more than 100 years that the lake has had this much water in it!
We went to a favorite park and spent the morning. We were so happy to have the sun out AND cooler temps!
 Chill baby
 Having fun!










 After playing at the parks, we walked down through the nature trails, and found a caterpillar on the way. (on Eric's middle finger.)
 We also found a family of snails! And one was crossing the sidewalk....very.....slowly...... :)
 Soooo tired, but still happy!
 Went to the car to feed him, and he passed out. I knew he would, it was way past his naptime!
 So I enjoyed some baby love for a good 20 minutes or so until it was over. What a little angel!

  1. What a great month. Those dimples and is that Granny Mary's cowlick on his neckline? Brett and Jack both have it! Ella is really taking on the looks of a little girl. Carter has to be the sweetest of little boys the way he enjoys his baby brother so much.
