Get ready for A LOT of pictures from July.
First up some Sunday family pictures.
And a few siblings pictures.
And some artwork.
I LOVE my kids drawings.
First up is the picture Eli made me for my birthday.
Ruby drew a bunny girl.
Avery drew this cute deer girl.
I found this sign up on the kids' bathroom door.
Lexi drew it and I couldn't help but think that it looks like a bum.
Here's some of Lexi's sketches.
I love this one of Ginny and Harry.
Here's the birthday card that Lexi made for David's birthday.
I laughed so hard that she included Alexa.
Here are the other two sides of the card.
Next up some pictures of Lexi.
Here she is with the plants that she planted in this pot.
It took a picture to compare to what they looked like in the spring.
I'm guessing that this was our first zucchini but I'm not sure.
Lexi loved picking things out of our garden while she watering the plants.
Here's Lexi at her well check up.
She knew that she had to get immunizations and was freaking out before the appointment.
But she was so calm and mellow during the appointment.
It was so unlike her. I was so impressed and proud.
Lexi was 56.2 inches (43%) and 66 lbs 4 oz (13%). Her BMI was (8%).
One night Lexi came out of the house all dressed up for a spa day with her doll.
I love her creativity and imagination.
And here's some pictures of Avery.
Avery used her parasol when walking to church one week.
Avery loves sleeping in her mask.
I think she's so cute in it.
Avery won a free hair cut through the summer reading program.
(She won a few other things too actually.)
Here's her before picture.
And here's her after picture.
She originally wanted to donate her hair.
But when we realized that she'd have to cut more inches that we thought,
she panicked and I told her that she didn't have to donate her hair.
She was so relieved and ended up loving her haircut.
After her haircut, we went out for ice cream.
Next up is Eli pictures.
He picked out these socks when we went back to school shopping.
He wanted tall socks like his cousin Parker.
Here's Eli right before he lost his first tooth.
He was so excited to FINALLY loose a tooth.
Eli was so excited when the Tooth Fairy came. He left so rich.
Ruby's turn.
First up some sleeping pictures. I don't get a lot of these anymore.
She's still the cutest when she sleeps though.
Ruby was so excited to wear Lexi's heels while she was gone.
Ruby took the house quiz and she's a HUFFLEPUFF!!!
We're so proud.
She was so excited that her patronus is a horse.
Ruby is just the prettiest little girl!
Now it's Ty's turn.
Ty learned to fold his arms for the prayer.
One of the kids put Ruby's underwear on Ty's head and thought it was hilarious.
Ty loves the indoor sandbox.
Baby cuddles are my favorite thing in the world.
Attempting to take a selfie together.
Ty and I got our hair done together.
I sent Sean this picture of my hair and asked him how he liked my new color.
(This was before I rinsed it out but I didn't tell him that.)
Every few most I take pictures of myself in my work out clothes to track my progress.
We got some fences for the bunnies so that they could go play in the grass.
They were getting too naughty to run around freely.
I like taking the kids to the car wash because I like to make them vacuum the van.
Since they make the crumbs they have to clean them up.
Chelsi Greenwood had surgery so I took her kids for a day to let her recover.
I made some shirts with my Silhouette.
Avery and I wore our new shirts to a Harry Potter birthday party.
My friend Erin went all out with the decorations for Rachael's party.
She set up the Great Hall in basement.
And the girls all ate a feast.
There was a photo booth and games.
I saw a phone booth in a random parking lot and made the girls stop and take a picture.
We finally made it to the Bountiful temple for the first time.
We were in the area so I wanted to go see it.
It's the only temple within two hours of us that we haven't gone too.
But it was closed so we couldn't walk around the grounds.
We had a paper airplane contest one day.
Everyone made a plane and threw it from the playhouse.
For Pioneer Day we tried our fire column for the first time.
We wanted to do S'mores but honestly wasn't that great for it.
Turns out we need to get a fire pit for that.
We watched fireworks in our backyard that night.
Our neighbors gave us a free show.
Court and Baby G came to visit.
And another day we went to their house.
We walked to Wheeler Farms.
Court lives about a mile from there.
Court made us a picnic lunch.
Then we walked around the farm.
And then we went swimming at the pool at Court's townhouse.
The kids earned free laser tag through the summer reading program.
So Sean took them and Lexi's friend Charlize.
Afterwards they came home and played with our laser tag set.
Another day Charlize and Josie came over and the girls laid in the bed in our basement
and watched TV and ate popcorn.
Another day Josie came over and these three baked while watching Just Add Magic.
Then they went biking around the neighborhood.
Avery had to use Eli's bike because her's was flat.
She looked silly but was a good sport about it.
It was another great month!
