AMS

The Mr. and I became an Uncle and Aunt this week!

What a blessing! :)

The Mr.'s sister A had her first baby on June 30th at 6:50AM. 

She had an unmediated birth and did an amazing job!

(Natural birth is amazing!)

Little AMS was 7lbs and 8oz 

and 20.5 inches long

and JUST BEAUTIFUL!

We headed up to SC on Monday July 1st to meet our sweet niece! Tucker was so excited too! I pray that they grow up close and love each other so much! They are exactly 21 weeks apart and will be in the same grade. :)

Okay, here are the pictures from the two days we spent with our precious niece...there are a lot of pictures. :)

We are so blessed to have such a wonderful family! It's so fun to experience it growing.

 These were such fun days and so many wonderful memories were made...I cannot wait for the many more years of fun we will all have together. 

We love you sweet AMS and cannot wait to watch you grow up to be a wonderful woman of God!

Our 4th of July!

We had a great 4th of July!

Tucker turned 5 months old too!

We spent the morning at home, TMan was pretty tired from traveling. And we took some fun picture of him with his 4th of July get up on!:)

Then we headed to our wonderful friend's new home! The B's moved into their beautiful new home last weekend and already had a get together! It's a great house for having people over!

The Hammarlunds!

 With my sweet boy!

Had to get the little guy with a great American flag!

And of course he wanted to eat the flag!

We took cupcakes, buffalo dip and fresh peaches to share at the cook out!

We had a great time celebrating at the B's new house! Can't wait for many more fun times with you all! :) 

And I had to share this picture of T and his new cousin A! We took these Tuesday while in SC meeting her!

They had to have matching 4th of July shirts! 

How was your 4th of July? 

Happy 5 Months Tucker!

SWW!

It's Wednesday!

 So what if....

• I eat three Elf cookies after I pump in the middle of the night...it's how I bribe myself to get up in the middle of the night every night. 
• I'm so glad my grad class is over this coming Sunday! WHOOP!
• I probably eat my weight in fresh fruit! Such a good summer snack!
• I miss my BFF this week..she is on a cruise and I miss our all day convos through texts!
• I think it's weird that the 4th of July is in the middle of the week...I know this happens but it's just such a weekend holiday!
• I love my sweet husband A LOT!

Pups!

I know you've been wondering...the pups are doing great!

They are adjusted to TJH for sure. Lucy just ignores him and Ethel can't get enough of him! ha!

Lucy doesn't like anyone to come in between her and the Mr.! 

Ethel thinks Tucker is the best playmate!

The love to hang out on the steps...the sun shines in on the steps.

Miss Ethel was due for a major hair cut! ha!

BEFORE!

AFTER!

We sure do love our first fur kids!
