Thanks Aunt Keri!

My EXTREMELY talented sister-in-law made Moira some new summer dresses. They are so darling that I had to have Moira give me a fashion show right away. Well, I only got as far as three of the four dresses but we only managed to snap pictures of two before she insisted that she had better things to do: like scoot all over the floor! She definitely has her own agenda! Thanks again Keri, I am truly at a loss for words at your talent. The dresses are a family treasure. You are such a blessing!














I realize half her face is cut off in this one but I wanted you to see the cute ties on the side of the dress.

Trying to escape but we let her...MORE dresses to try on!













She loves the hat - as long as she doesn't have to put it on her head. Too cute!!

That's My Boy!

Carter went to a friend's birthday party last month. The mom wanted to take a picture of all the sweet boys who shared in this fun event. Notice the smiling faces of all the boys. Now, check out the sweet face of Carter... and look down to his hand... throwing gang signs - or is that a gun in his pocket? Nice. I can not stop laughing every time I look at this photo. My little cowboy...or gangster, whatever.

Like Father Like Son

On Father's Day, the boys were enjoying some R & R on the couch and I was able to snap this photo. In case you are trying to read their T-Shirts, Carter's says "Daddy Rocks!" and Jon's says , "My Wife Rocks". I picked up matching shirts for Father's Day. Moira has a Daddy Rocks onesie and mine declares, "My Husband Rocks!". I know. We are cheese.

Our mover and shaker

"Can we talk?"








So happy!

















Yes, they really are this cute!








She outta be in pictures!

Look what I can do!!!!

It's Been Too Long!

OK, OK, so I am the world's worst blogger.

Life at the Stevenson house is pretty much business-as-usual. The kids continue to grow like weeds while Jon and I look around amazed and blessed. Carter has started swim lessons this summer which were much needed. He would not enter a pool unless clasped around our neck but after a few lessons, he was asking Jon to dunk him under during our jaunt to the pool on July 4th. We are very excited for him. Carter also participated in "soccer" camp this summer. I use the term loosely as it was basically a bunch of 3 and 4-year-olds running around with balls rolling around the ground. But Carter had a great time. Please check out the photos below.

Moira is doing amazing. She has grown two teeth and knows how to use them. She has advanced to some table food and puts her chompers to work. She loves to sit at the table with her brother and watch him exhibit his questionable table manners. Moira is mobile now too. She doesn't technically crawl but she has mastered the low-crawl and gets anywhere she wants to go ...in a hurry! We are incredulous at the fact that we already need to install baby gates. Where has the time gone??? She can get up on all fours now and just rocks like she is about to take off. We have even witnessed her pull herself to standing in her crib.

Daily our kids amaze us. We are so grateful. Please enjoy the pictures. I know there are a lot but, hey, it has been a few months.

Beckham eat your heart out! (Check out the socks...they HAD to be pulled all the way up.) ;-)
