It's Summertime!

It is officially Summer, or at least the weather sure feels like it! We have had highs in the 90's, bright sunshine, and super high humidity. Reminds me of August......

The kids are enjoying being outside, with lots of popsicles and drinks to keep cool. We had a nice Memorial Day Weekend celebrating Ryan's birthday. Raegan played in the pool a little bit while Ryan and Brody were at Lowe's. She's not a huge fan of water, but she got in it for about 5 minutes. Despite her brief swim, she sure looked cute in her new bathing suit!


Raegan got sick towards the end of the weekend, she ended up getting strep throat! She is on antibiotics and is slowly getting better. She still runs a fever when the motrin/tylenol run out. Hopefully it will be gone by tomorrow?

Today the kids blew bubbles on the driveway for about an hour. They each took turns blowing bubbles while the other chased them. They were busy doing this for a while, so that makes Mom happy! Any moment I can get without some child whining/requesting something/crying is soo appreciated.
We have a robin's nest in our wreath on the front door. We noticed it about a week ago. The bird made the nest on top of the wreath, which has us wondering why she chose that spot. We now can't use our front door so we don't disturb the nest. Today I took pictures of it to share. It's amazing to me that birds know how to make nests, with mud and sticks to keep their eggs safe. My door is now muddy from all of her hard work, but I'll let it be until the babies are born and on their way.

An hour, really? I'm buying a gallon of bubbles this weekend!

I think the birds nest looks like it was meant to be there. It fits perfectly into the decor of the wreath.
