Summer is here?

It's been HOT in Buffalo. I know, that just doesn't look right. But it really has been. 80 degrees and higher this week. I love when it is warm enough for the kids to play outside, but it has been so hot that I haven't even wanted to take the baby out for very long. I am hoping this is a beginning to a great summer since last year was a lost cause!
This week has been busy! A new driveway, which Hannah loved. TRUCKS! She supervised well.
& A new Swing Set for the kids. The husband has been quite busy. I am pretty sure he has spent about 2 full days working outside in the hot sun to get everything up and looking nice. Our house now looks great from the street (except my weeds that I have yet to pull).
The weekend is jam packed with a picnic or party every day, seeing family & seeing the new SATC 2 tomorrow with my lovely cousins! I am very excited!
I have decided that I want to run (and finish) a 5K this year (summer) which means I need to get my out of shape butt moving. And Soon. My goal is to do one on July 28th. Yikes. I really need to get running...
Father's Day is going to be here soon too! It will be a day of Missing my dad and wishing he was here to meet his wonderful, amazing, beautiful grand-kids. & also being thankful for the fact that my husband is a wonderful dad and that he loves the kids more than anything. I am very lucky to have him and to see him be so "hands on" with the kids 24/7 - well, they are lucky for sure...

Where did 6 months go!?

My baby is now 6 months old, And my other baby is going to be 3 in a couple of months. I am trying to figure out how the last 3 years have gone by so quickly. I love every moment with my kids and it is starting to make me sad that time is passing before my eyes.
Lucas is rolling over, up on all fours and trying to figure out how to crawl. He goes from his belly to sitting up all on his own and is now 20 pounds! A big boy! Fat chubby legs that you just want to gobble up. His personality is really coming through in the past weeks. A funny little guy with a great laugh and smile that is sure to melt hearts in the future.
Hannah is smarter by the day. This is both good and bad... She is beginning to realize she can outsmart me sometimes. She has a fantastic imagination and sense of humor. I listen to her play when she doesn't know it and am blown away by her ability to pretend, create and imitate life. I can not wait until she starts school in the fall and watch her continue to grow on a whole new level.
I celebrated my 4 year anniversary a week ago also. Its hard to believe we have been married 4 years and in that time have come so very far in life.
With the weather turning warm I look forward to all the adventures we will have this summer! I can't wait!!
