So here's a little info on what we've been doing since I last updated.......I am kind of at a loss for words because we have done a whole lot, and I am used to facebooking all the time. But I promise not to turn into one of "those" people who quits blogging because of facebook.
I don't have pictures of EVERYTHING, but here's a quick run-down.
In mid-July, we went to Dallas for my Aunt Gay's retirement party. I got to make the cake. Yay! It was fun. Cousins from both sides of my mom's family were there. We stayed in Allen with the Myatts. One night my cousin Leslie came over and we went hot-tubbing and had a rousing good time. We also ate coconut cream pie in honor of Mimi's birthday. The next night, the kids and I ate dinner and swam with the Baldridges. Dean went to film MMA fighting and came later. It was a great trip!
The kids also started swimming lessons in July. Lola was in "advanced Aqua Tots" although her fear of the water keeps her from being truly "advanced." Compared to last year, she did awesome. She kicks her feet and paddles her hands with a water noodle tied around her waist. She loved it. Deacon and I were in the "parent & me" class. Oh, how he hates the cold water like his mother. The child went from happy and laughing to scowling and screaming the minute we got in the water. He did do better as lessons went on. He went off the diving board a few times, which was really just me dropping him in to the instructor.
(Pics of swimming to come soon.)
On July 29th, Dean came with me to my ultrasound and we found out we are having another boy! We DO NOT have a name picked out, which is what I am asked on a daily basis. When we do, it'll be a secret like the last two times. Sorry. We just really like to shock people. After the ultrasound, we had a "lunch date" at Thai Pepper - oh how I looooooove spicy food.
The last 2 weeks Dean has had an INSANE work schedule which has, thank the Lord, come to an end. He is back to his normal 8-5 workdays. It was so hard for him to sleep during the day.
We had 2 weddings to attend last weekend, and we have one more this weekend. Next Tuesday, we leave for Galveston! We are taking the kids to the beach. We are thinking it will be super fun. I am currently borrowing my mom's camera (thanks mom) so I now have pictures to post! Here are some pics from the last couple of days. Enjoy!

Mmmmm popsicle. He takes a lot of baths!
He busted his nose and ran head-first into the couch, all within a few days!
More and more freckles every day....
"Mom, take a picture of my monkey face!" Sweet blue eyes.
It was a hot, hot day!
