Tuesday visits

Megan and the babies were at Grandma's house today so since they were so close we went over for a visit.  Here I am holding Wyatt - he looks so peaceful with his kids up by his face.  Later in the day we went to visit Kings Island.  We rode a lot of rides and had a fun night.  Always lots of laughs on the kids, especially the Scrambler!

Summer sports

Jacob wanted to practice his putting so he got his bike helmet and used it as the hole and started hitting balls.  Creative and it served his purpose!  Meanwhile Emily was practicing her bike riding and has finally got it!  Still a little shaky but definitely a lot more confident!

Chalk family

Today while the kids were outside playing and riding bikes, Emily decided she wanted to play with chalk.  She made these amazing pictures of our family.  Each member is represented in picture and name.  She is one creative and artsy little girl - we both wonder where she got it from?! 

Puppy and her master

There is no doubt about who is Miley's master - Scott!  Even when he goes out into the garage, this is what we get.  If it goes out to cut the grass she will sit at the door for a long time and cry because she misses him.

There really is a "holiday" for everything!

Today we went to Graeter's for "National Ice Cream Day".  Just couldn't pass up a chance to get delicious and cheap treats!

Girls & boys night

Scott and Jacob went to the Red's game and the 4192 club with Mamaw and Papaw.  They stuffed themselves silly, full of all sorts of yummy ballpark foods.  They saw a good game in great seats.  While the boys were cheering on the Red's the girls went to get pedicures, Emily's first!  She loved the massage chair, soaking her feet in the color changing bowl and picking out her own color - sparkly red.  We then went to dinner at Dewey's and had some girl talk.  The respective parties reported back to each other at the end of the day, both were great reports!

Fireworks night

Tonight after the Red's game it was a Friday Fireworks night.  It was a great night and a terrific show.  The Rozzi's know what they are doing.  At the end they were so loud and powerful.  A great way to end the evening.  Even Daddy had to admit they were good!

He got it!

Jacob got it at swim class tonight and figured out rotary breathing and swimming on top of the water!  This is a big step and one he has been working hard to get to! (p.s.   Little sis is excelling at swimming under the water right now!)

Cousin love

Our kids are in love with their new cousins.  I honestly think Jacob would sit and hold the babies all day if he could.  It's so sweet to watch.  Emily loves to hold them and then pass them off to me so she can play with Klo-E!  

Long hard day

When I'm up against a lot of deadlines at work it translates into a long day with extra hours and working late.  Luckily this doesn't happen very often because when it does it's a doozy!  When I got home from my 12 hour day this note greeted me on my bed in our room.  Our little girl can be so thoughtful and sweet and it immediately helped to start taking the stress of a hard day away.

Crazy games & food with the church folks

Today we went to the 2nd annual Nerf Wars at the Weaver's house.  A lot cooler than last year and lots of fun!  We had a great time with some families from church.  Then in the evening Scott and I went to the Gallagher's house for a Mystery Dinner and game night.  It was a lot of fun and full of laughs.

Baby snuggle time

I went to the hospital this afternoon to visit with Megan, Steve and our new nephews.  They are absolutely adorable!!  I got to snuggle with both of them for a long time and loved every minute of it.  We went to visit them a little a few days after they got home and their cousins loved holding them too!

Welcome to Owen & Wyatt

We woke up this morning to great news that the twins had arrived, all on their own schedule.  Megan was set to have a c-section tomorrow but the little firecrackers wanted to be born on the 4th of July.  We went to visit them in the hospital and they are just precious!  The kids immediately became enamored with the both of them.  Jacob finally got to touch them as he would never touch Megan's belly while she was pregnant!  We're so glad you're here boys!
