Tulsa Time

Since Nate was going away on a retreat this weekend I thought the boys and I should have one, too. Why stay home alone when I can share the joy of my children with others?

We went to the Callery's the first night. Max and Kate have a special fondness for one another.

Every time they sat down on the couch they sat next to each other under a blanket. We have to keep our eyes on those two... Kate writes Max love letters and Max, well, he just goes full force and puts the moves on trying to kiss Kate! We might have to stop visiting in a couple more years.

Jack and Ava... so sweet. If only Jack didn't have a draining nose and eyes. Hopefully he didn't pass it on to his cousin.

When I was trying to get them all ready to go (due to the before mentioned draining eyes and nose) I told Grant to get his shoes on. He was kneeling in front of Ava patting her head and said, "But I just love her so much."

Sweet-almost-6-month-old girl.

We got her all dressed up complete tights, bloomers and black patent leather shoes (which she didn't wear for her nap). I later realized the benefit of boys when changing her diaper. That is a lot of clothing to take off for a diaper change.

Sidenote: After taking these pictures I thought there was a serious problem with our camera since 1/2 of every picture is blurry. I told Nate I thought it was time for a new camera. This morning I realized there was a Jack size fingerprint covering the lens so hopefully, I solved the blur problem.
