Lexi decided she wanted to show me all of her poses and have me take pictures, haha!

the details of Lexi's bedroom walls, this pattern goes all around her room:
the kids very own garden, they are growing watermelons and pumpkins. we also planted tulips yesterday...
me and Kyler cuddling on the couch, something we haven't been able to do for a few weeks now.
up close, look at those big blue eyes...
I made homemade jam today! the strawberries are grown from our garden, picked yesterday, cleaned, smashed and turned into 6 jars of delicious jam today! who knew I would make jam?
After taking a week off of everyday life, we are near completion and starting to re-establish a routine. The kids are a little homesick here and there, Kyler asked me today if this house is feeling like home to me yet, I replied with "almost, how about you?" He said "almost" when I asked what was missing, he replied with "family." Nearly broke my heart. I know it's just a matter of time for us all. Every time we go anywhere, he stares out the window in awe, just like his mom and dad. My brother and his family are arriving Thursday morning to stay for a week and a half, that will help this transitional period. My aunt from New Mexico arrives July 7th as well. I just found out today one of my best friends I have known since I was 4 is coming out July 12 through the 18th with her family. Her kids and ours love each other and our husbands are nearly inseparable, so that will be great. We can hardly wait.
We met one of our neighbors today, she is a very sweet lady. I made an extra jar of jam to take to her tomorrow.
Our nephew was born this morning at 9:18 am! He is a beautiful, big baby boy! I can hardly wait to meet him. Congratulations Ian and Marissa!
