Our Boys!

Ronald - 3 years old

Talin - 18 months old

These boys never cease to amaze me! We have had a wonderful but busy summer getting to all kinds of things! They are still going to daycare while I am in school and Ron works full-time. They are learning so much and talking non-stop. Ronald keeps us cracking up at all times which is nice when you have had a hard day! They pretty much eat anything you put in front of them but absolutely LOVE fruit snacks, milk, grapes, peaches, anything from the grill, and more... Before bed each night, we (Ron and I) each read a book to them and don't quite feel right if they don't get their book! I didn't know what to expect with two boys but I have absolutely loved it! I get all the kisses and hugs I want and need at anytime and can always guarantee that they have my back against daddy! I don't want them to grow up too fast so I am savoring each day as much as I can! Pretty soon Ronald will be starting kindergarten!! And Talin will be right behind him :)

Myrtle Beach, SC!

We took a little family vacation to Myrtle Beach over the summer! Well, the boys and I were relaxing and Ron had a work conference. It was their first time to the beach and they were in heaven! We couldn't get Ronald away from the pool or to take off his life jacket. They were afraid of the sand moving away from the feet by the ocean but got used to it by the time we left. We definitely had our fill of seafood and checked out some pretty nice local restaurants. We definitely plan to go back again (hopefully soon) and the next time, we will totally be staying in a villa with a bit more space :)

Making Cupcakes!

I had a craving for cupcakes after watching some show on TV so we decided to make a few! This was Talin's first time really tasting the batter and he loved it!! I'm so glad that we didn't give these out to anyone because they totally had Talin's slobber all in it!! They were very good evidenced by the pic of Talin with his shirt off!

Sweetcorn Festival

We headed to the Urbana Sweetcorn Festival - homework for me and lots of fun for the rest of the family! Ronald actually got on the ponies this year and took a ride and as you can see from the pics, Talin enjoyed himself too! Of course we didn't get to check out all the food items because we had to head to the kids area! They had a waterslide with a pool at the bottom that Ronald wanted to do but we didn't have a change of clothes with us - maybe next year! I think he, Talin, and their dad had a lot of fun on the other slides though! And you had better believe we got some sweetcorn!!
