My little "helper"

After this sweet little girl learned how to get around it took little time to see all the fun new stuff she could now explore. 

One of her new and favorite things to do….even today is to come in and "help" with the dishes. 

Although she has the right idea of getting the dishes out she still has to be a little older to actually put anything away ;) 

Phillip's first soccer season

Since Thomas started soccer, Sup was interested in playing as well so when he was old enough he finally was able to play as well. I wasn't sure how I would do with both of them in soccer but he was pretty excited at the opportunity so I thought I would try to juggle both schedules. 

With as much energy as this boy has it was a good way for him to burn off some extra energy and give him a chance to learn how soccer is played. He didn't mind going to practices, but he was most excited about going to the games. 

It was interesting with this team of boys, for the most part the coaches really try and rotate the kids in and out so they all have a chance to play different positions. With this team not a lot of them wanted to play very much so this worked out well for Sup, because he always wanted to play. 

So for most of the game he was able to be out on the field and play. You could tell at the end he was getting winded but he gave his all. Livvy was a good sport as well at this point was able to be entertained with snacks and toys on her blanket :)

At the end of the season (in this league they don't keep scores or rankings) all the boys were given a little medal and I was able to get a quick pic of his first team :)

Napping with Daddy

Its always nice to cuddle when your children are small. When he is able, Daddy always takes the sacrifice to rock this little girl to sleep ;)

It also seem like a good way to "watch" her and get a nap along with her :) So this can be a common occurrence around our household. 

Daddy long-legs

The boys usually don't do well with bugs, more less Thomas then Sup, but with our campsite we had a ton of daddy long-legs around. 

 At first they were going on and on how many spiders were around and hanging around on the tent. But after the first night they realized they weren't too bad. This ended up with a lot of them bring put in the back of Sup's bike so they could take a ride. 

Another portion of the sadly ended up being thrown in the fire. I am really not sure how many actually survived but at least there were a few that we still could find as we were franticly trying to get everything packed up before the raining came pouring down!
