Today has started out pretty cranky and tough but I am determined to power past it! Last night started it, and it has continued over to today. Elliot fell in the bath tub and hurt his mouth, not sure what was bleeding in his mouth but he wasn't too bothered by it- me on the other hand am still worrying about it! To bed late means he woke up early, and with tons of toots! While grocery shopping E dropped a jar on my foot, causing it to bleed. Gabby threw a baseball in the house and it hit me in the neck.... Thank goodness it is now nap time and quiet time! Here are a few pictures of what we have been up to lately, I am not even going to put them in order! So far summer has been busy, HOT and fun. Uncle Chris is here for more Navy school, at Clay's base, so he has stayed with us that past couple nights which has been fun... Gabby may have developed a crush on him!
These two sure do love one another, and are best friends. Elliot even sits with Gabby when she is in time out! This was today, eating melon and making a sticky mess together!
My newest craft project. Turned out okay... silhouettes of the kids are not perfect but trying to get a good picture to use was HARD. I painted the frames and used some scrap book paper I had on hand.
These boys love fish! Elliot kept tipping over the 5 gallon bucket to get at the fish "we" caught. I noticed the pole tugging for this blue fish, and started to reel it in then decided I would let Clay do it. We ate it for dinner in fish tacos the next night.
Chocolate cupcakes with a rolo candy in the center and caramel frosting/glaze. Made for our friend Marella's birthday.
Outside of Wood Chicks BBQ last night. If you watch BBQ Pit Masters on the TLC network you will know about this place, the owner Lee Ann is part of the show. Pretty good brisket.
After we ate this girl needed to take a break! Notice her shoes??? Her Aunt Kayali and Uncle Mas are big fancy shoe people. Well these are G's newest pair and she loves to wear them with EVERYTHING!
They are real Converse, and I couldn't resist buying them. Plus they are gender neutral so Elliot can have them soon (yes their feet are both growing that fast!). Gabby has informed me she doesn't want to grow out of them tho.
We went to Norfolk's Harborfest this past Saturday. It was HOT. My favorite part and the only part I have pictures of is the stilt walkers! 
The costumes and make up were incredible. Plus the people walked totally effortlessly on huge stilts!
We have been to a few different fountains so far this summer. Both kids love it!

The shoes are too cute and the cupcakes look yummy. I'm glad you ate a fish your husband caught!
LOVE the fishy shoes! Those are priceless! It looks like you guys are having so much fun in the sun...its still so rainy & not very warm here :( Your kids get cuter by the day!
How much do we loooooove those kids!!!!!!!! It totally makes my day when I see new pictures up and get to see what you guys have been up to!
The shoes are great - the gender neutral part is a perk I didn't think of right away! What a smart Mom you are.
The costumes are something amazing though - they go all out in your neck of the woods!
Tons of hugs and kisses to you all, Kayali & 'Mas
You are lucky to have a hot summer! It has been so stinkin' cold here I have been asking myself...."why do I live here again?"
I love that Elliot sits with Gabby during time-out. Siblings are the best, so fun!
