A trip to the dentist and raspberry pies

We’re still working on our shed and these three have been a big help. No, not “help,” but actual, this-is-really-saving-me-lot-of-time help!

I found Dominic and Leo working on writing Leo’s name recently. I’m both humbled and proud to say that Dominic is more patient with Leo than I am. He’s so sweet with him!

We’ve been spending every Wednesday at a friend’s. Sometimes we’ll have 20 kiddos running around and playing the pool and on the swing set. I haven’t missed a week yet, because this momma needs adult time like I need water. The kiddos love it, too!

I love taking this cute girl swimming. She loves splashing and just sits on my hip and takes it all in.

We did dentist appointments this week. It was Leo’s first and he did great. No cavities! Dominic does, however, have to get a tooth pulled. Poor kid will spend a lot of time in the dentist and orthodontist office in the coming years. He was actually excited, though, when the dentist told him he can take his tooth home and leave it for the tooth fairy!

We go to the best dentist office. They have a ton of toys and a super nice receptionist who let the kids “help” file (yes, “help”).

Nothing says summer like chalk all over your face and clothes.

All Saints had a float for the Swedish Days Parade. We had 10 kiddos and 5 adults ride our super sweet float.

Luke is still working hard at getting his back up to 100%. He spends up to 3 hours a day stretching and doing various exercises. Lucy often joins him, crawling all over him and the boys can be found stretching with him, too.

The three big boys recently went to a week long drama camp (the first step in my life-long dream of becoming a stage mom Smile) and so I just had Leo and Lucy. It was so EASY! One morning we walked for almost 2 hours with stops at two different parks and the grocery store. My world is going be completely different come Fall when I get those kiddos in school full time.

The boys have been going crazy harvesting raspberries from our bushes out back and they all love raspberry pies—or just snitching a handful for a snack.
