June is always a month of celebrations and fun in our family. This year was no different. Here is what we were up to:
Russell's dental office had a summer carnival which was perfect for a Russell-sized person..
He scored lots of free stuff, including two new cars!
The highlight for him was when the fire truck
came and let all the kids come inside!
And there was also a ninja turtle.
One night when we were babysitting, the ice cream truck drove past. The boys had just finished their dinner so we decided to let them experience the joy of spending too much money on sub-par ice cream.
Russell initially wanted the batman one, but then
changed his mind so they could have the same.
The long awaited time came to go see Cars 3
in the big movie! Russell was very excited.
After the show ended Russell immediately shouted "again, again,"
then asked if we could watch Moana in the big movie.
We decided to do something very romantic on our 5th anniversary and go to a Rangers baseball game as a family. It was an afternoon game and we were very lucky to have nice weather and not be dying of heat the whole time.
Russell got free entry into the kids zone and
practiced his pitching.
Worked on his rock climbing skills and
froze in fear at the top
A fireman hat full of Skittles
Getting his baseball signed
Mickey mouse is a Rangers fan apparently
We played in the rain a lot this month... floated
tin boats down the street
We met up with friends at the park, then wandered and
found some animal friends too
More dress up... Mom got to join in this time
Daddy builds towers taller than Russell!
Sometimes Daddy gets to go swimming with us too!
Perfecting our superheroness
Everyone joined Daddy for his Father's Day breakfast in bed
Then Russell needed his own breakfast 'in bed' on the couch
Made it to the lake. It's the best!
Got some new squirt guns and chased poor Zoey around
Jumped in the mud puddle Zoey dug for him
Celebrated Mommy's birthday early with Papa, Bear and Ashee.
