July

Another month of summer has gone by!

July was definitely a more relaxing month for us. I have been taking full advantage of the fact that the girls actually sleep past 7:30am! This is the first summer that my girls have slept in and it has been nice! Now I can let them stay up a lot later and not have that dreadful feeling of what the next day will be like because they are so tired. I have had to wake them up several times this summer for piano, swim or whatever else happened to be scheduled before 10am. I can't believe that I have had to wake up my girls at 9:30 in the morning! Who would have thought this day would already be here?!? I have been sleeping-in myself....not waking up until 7, 8, or sometimes 9! I am a little nervous about what the morning of August 23rd will look like. I haven't seen 5:30am since May! And the girls have not woken up before 7am since May....hopefully we will all get back into the swing of things very quickly.

The most important event in July for us is Katie's birthday. She is four years old now! We celebrated her birthday in San Antonio with family. And came back home to celebrate with Grandpa and Linda who came down for a short visit.

Hitting the pinata at MoMo's and celebrating with swimming, cake and presents with her cousins. (And Paige, but she is kind of like a cousin!)

So, other than Katie's birthday and a few pics of the girls eating watermelon.....that is our July! We were so busy relaxing that we did not even get the camera out!

Enjoy your last few weeks of summer!
