When we hung out with Nancy, Harper, and Chevy at J&N’s house a couple of weeks ago, I got a pic of this cutie pie smile!  I had my camera settings off, so the pool pics didn’t turn out… but this is all you need to see how much fun we had!

Poppa and Rara came up for the day to watch the girls while I went to the doctor one day last week.  When I got home, they took us out to eat.  We had so much fun enjoying and laughing at the girls!  Thanks Poppa and Rara!

Our friends Madison and Emily invited us to swim at their neighborhood pool this week.  It was my first time at the pool with all three of my girls, and we did great!

Rose is just too cute for words these days!  Noelle was in heaven hanging out with Emily again… they’ve been missing each other these past couple of weeks.

Noelle is always in it for a good time!

Anna Kate and Dora were busy learning how to swim.  She’s my “safe” one in the water.  She relatively stays in the same spot for long periods of time and is scared of the water, which is a good thing for me right now.  Bless her heart, she thought she was swimming because she was moving her arms and legs while her tummy was touching the bottom of the pool.  After all the sliding around, she ruined her Frankie and Daisy swimsuit.  Oh well… she had fun!

Rose made a game of me trying to get her to wear her hat, but she would not have it!

I *love* these pics of Rose… some of my favorite pool pics ever!

Emily and Noelle had a blast floating around together in their tubes. 

I asked Anna Kate to pretend like she was surfing and this is the pose she gave me, lol!  Baby Rose had a blast playing with mermaid Dora.

I couldn’t help ending with this!

Noelle colored this sign on her white board that said, “Starting in 5…4…3…2…1!”  She worked on it for a while… and then she went upstairs for even longer.  Before she came all the way down the stairs, she asked us if we were ready for her fashion show and to all go sit on the couch.  No joke, she requested AC/DC for her background music, and when Mike turned it on, that’s when she came downstairs dressed in this!  Although it is a little edgy for my taste, I can definitely appreciate her creativity.  Noelle loves having fashion shows for us, and we love seeing what she comes up with!  She and I buy her clothes together, but the combos she puts together of the different pieces and accessories are beyond my skill set.  She rocks it out, and I’m just like, “Wow!”

Here are 3 of the luckiest girls in the world to have such a special Daddy to celebrate!

Mike’s mom and dad took us out to dinner for Father’s Day at Outback.  It was delicious!  Stephen’s family came too, but we didn’t get any pics… next time!

Noelle and Rose colored Grandpapa pictures for Father’s Day, but Anna Kate wanted to pass this year, lol!

Rose is coming into her own.  She usually carries a purse around the house.  She knows exactly where she is going and what she wants to do!  

I love celebrating every day with my wonderful family!

Here’s to the best Dad this side of the Pico De Gallo!  Lol… we love you, Daddy!!!

This is not a bad view.  A butterfly even lit on Mike’s office window.  We missed our Daddy this weekend, but he had to oversee some important business at work. 

Anna Kate got to go to another pony party for a sweet little girl in her dance class.

Anna Kate enjoyed a lot of special time with the horses and took it all in!

Nina is the birthday girl in the middle and her neighbor Olivia on the right.  Anna Kate had so much fun playing with the big girls!

Lots of hands on learning today… textures, smells, it’s all so new for a city girl!  What once was only imaginary in her mind came true before her very eyes, as she could reach out and actually touch her fairy tale!

She kept going back for ride after ride, and so they finally let her ride down the street and back.  She wanted me to walk beside her, and I said, “Anna Kate, we’re riding into the wild wild west.”  She just looked at me and smiled.  Special moment with my girl.

Logan was born on Monday, June 11, and we couldn’t get to the hospital fast enough!

The girls were so excited to go meet their next little crush!

Landon was saying the cutest things, like, “Can we bring him home with us?”  He’s going to be the sweetest big brother in the world!

What a special little bond this is… I’m already tearing up thinking about these two!

The girls were in awe of his tiny feet!

Landon knew right where to find his mommy!

These pictures/memories make me laugh!

Mike and I both thought Anna Kate cleaned up nicely tonight, lol!  When she’s not walking around with peanut butter and jelly in her hair hanging all over her face and pen marks all over her body, she looks like a classy young lady!

There’s that spunk we love!  Noelle and I were checking up on Anna Kate and Rose the other day.  We found Rose playing in her kitchen drawer and as we were about to go find Anna Kate, Noelle said, “Now let’s go check on the wild card!”  So funny!  Love you, Anna Kate!

Congratulations Fearing family!  So happy for your sweet family of 4!
