Farm & cobbler

We headed out to Frying Pan Farm today. The weather didn't look great but it wasn't raining so we packed our lunch and went. Of course by the time we got there it was raining. But since there was several of us already there & it was only sprinkling we just went for it. Kids didn't mind! Peyton was nice and cozy in his stroller with a huge rain shade. We got to see all the animals before it started pouring. Then of course my dumb stroller didn't want to fold down. Ha. Several moms stopped to see if I needed help which was so sweet but it finally unstuck! I got in the car literally a second before a mudslide came to my feet...mud running everywhere! Ha. We went home soaked but glad we went :)










After we got the boys settled down for nap Morgan & I made some cobbler. I've always made it from canned peaches but fresh is definitely the way to go!

Pump it up party!

We celebrated one of our friends 4th bday at the bounce house. Kids didn't stop moving for 2 full hours. J stayed home with baby P so I got my fair share of bouncing in too.

Ice Cream Sundae Party

Seriously, read that title. If you were a kid wouldn't that be the ultimate play date? And my lucky kids have had two of these this summer! Everyone brings something for toppings and we let the kids go at it. Of course I can't pass up ice cream...and this time there was even a homemade peach cobbler for us mommies (thanks Andrea!) This particular play ground is of the dirty variety so we required a bath when we got home!

ice painting

I saw this fun idea to make a block of ice, set it out on a jelly roll, then let the kids paint on it. It was so fun.

4 months

Since we've had three spring babies I've always done at least one of their monthly pics in the 4th of July tub. I'll just say it was much easier with tiny baby Morgan vs these big ol' boys. Ha.

Peyton is 4 months old. He's loving to pick his head up as high as it can go and sitting on his elbows. He schooches (that's a word..) around so he can see what the kids are doing when he's on his back. He still loves hanging out in the swing except now he tries to arch his back to get to the animals on the mobile. Good thing for buckles! He talks non-stop and makes those sweet baby noises when he's going to sleep. I love that. Being baby #3 he's pretty much always on the go during the day and he's just fine with that. Easy going, happy, smiling baby sums him up. He brings all of us so much happiness :)
