June is gone...6 months!

Wow...June flew by!

I can't believe today is July 1st!  June was a crazy busy month and I never got a chance to update! June was full of baseball and baby's firsts!  All three boys finished up their baseball seasons and decided to try out for all-stars.  Zachary and Colton both made a team!  They were pretty pumped!  Poor Dylan didn't make it this year, but a LOT of kids tried out in his age group and it was his first year playing baseball.  Dylan had an awesome season and made a lot of progress in both his attitude about playing and his swing! He was pretty upset he didn't make an all star team but I think now that we are in the midst of summer he is loving the fact that he can swim and play and do whatever he wants and doesn't have to worry about practice or games.  The other two have had practice quite a few times during the week and have games all over the place, but they seem to love it.  Colton has done great in the all-star season and has started pitching.  He loves pitching...but not playing outfield!  Zachary has done amazing as well!  His confidence has improved this year which has done him a world of good!  He even hit the winning run at last nights game!  Unfortunately it is hard for me to make a lot of games depending on weather and time of day.  The field has no shade and poor little Brooklyn would fry out there in the sun!  And there is no keeping her in a stroller sitting still for more than 10-15 minutes!

Brooklyn has become a little person in last month!  Well almost 2 months since she will be 7 months in a week :(  She is getting big so fast!  It is impossible to keep that baby girl still...she is always on the go!   I can't believe how she changing and growing everyday!

**Got my little tushy in the water, toes in the sand, not a worry in the world got a cold bottle on hand! 
First time in the ocean and first time in the sand!  Loved the sand in her toes, but wanted to eat it by the fist-full!
