Matt Hasselbacks on the Columbia River

I have not laughed this hard in a LONG time! I talked my mom into riding this tube ride with me. She got stuck 1/2 down and flipped her whole tube!! OMG... SO FUNNY... I guess you had to be there but it was sooooo funny I laughed the rest of the way down!!! I don't think mom knew where she was in this pic!!! HAHAHHA Love ya mom

What did you do GMA?!?!?!?!?

Carson was so thrilled he was tall enough to drive his own Kart! I think he thought he was Mario on the road however!! ;-)

108 in Levenworth was TOO HOT!

On the way over East, Gma Janise was able to get Cale asleep for 25 mins!!! YAHOO :)

Cale HATED the life jacket AND the BOAT!!! :(

Time to catch up...

So Yes, I have totally been slackin on the blog.. sorry!! With summer here all the days are running together!! Mr. Cale demands a TON/ALL of my time , so around 11pm at night when all 3 boys are in bed asleep and the house is quite, I find myself checking my facebook, and heading to bed myself, PRAYING Cale will sleep through the night! Only to find myself up every 3 hours for whatever reason!! UGH!!! Except the last 2 nights there has been a 5 hour stretch it has been so nice! Who knows if he will keep that up!

Update on Carson: He turned 8 on July 17th!! He had a birthday WEEK of parties and activities. He has pretty much been in Grandma and Grandpas pool the whole summer, as well as a few lakes, he loves to swim, barley comes up for air! He also had a great time at a fitness Camp here in Lake Stevens right after school got out. He is looking forward to 3rd grade and getting back to all of his friends :)

Update on Cale: He will be 9months on Aug 4th! He weighs 20.6 pounds and is 27 inches long. He crawls all over, gets into EVERYTHING, has taken 4 steps and we think will walk very soon! He just got his first 2 teeth on the bottom, and is eating/trying a ton of new foods :)

We are heading to Chelan for a week on Monday.always have a great time! This of course will be Cale's 1st time hopefully he enjoys it too! :)

The month of August is a big one for us:
1.Back to school clothes shopping, (which Carson just LOOOOVES!! YA RIGHT)
2. His supplies are bought and ready to go
3. Waiting for the BIG LETTER we will find out who his 3rd grade teacher will be!!!
4.We will head to the fair with friends
5. Finished out the summer in my parents pool with a few more BBQ's with family and friends.
Then BACK TO SCHOOL!!
So far the summer has been great! This heat has been a bit much, but thankfully my darling husband installed CENTRAL AC in our house, it has been WONDERFUL!!
Anyways, In my next post I will just post a bunch of pictures to try and catch everyone up!
I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer!!

Cale 7 1/2 months

So.. as much of a little bugger he can be, I LOVE him soooo much!!! He is crawling now, does NOT sleep through the night,loves carrots, hates Peas,has a MAJOR Tude but can melt my heart with one smile, can be a daddy's boy, and still his favorite person has to be BROTHER!!!

Summer time is here...

Here are some quick snap shots of us enjoying some of this early summer weather!!

GREAT NEWS from DENVER!!!!!!

The email below is from my Sister in Law!

Kelly had follow up appointment today with the Oncological Thoracic Surgeon and he thought that Kelly was making great progress, that the incision looked good and that Kelly will just need to continue to take it at his own pace. They removed his last drain, so Kelly is now "tube free" which feels good. The surgoen also had the pathology report which said that the tumor was classified as Stage One Chondrosarcoma (bone cancer). This is acutually great news because since it is still stage one, all they reccomend for treatment is removal, which he has just completed. So the plan from here on out is first of all, recovering from surgery, and secondly close follow up and monitoring with regular scans several times a year for the next several years.Thanks for all of your positive wishes and prayers.

Great News for my brother and his family!! Hope you have a speedy recovery Kelly! :)
