Uncle Tim is 30!!!

We celebrated Tim's big 3-0 this past weekend! We celebrated in style for Uncle Tim. The boys golfed on Saturday morning and then, we had a party for him at Goose Island in Chicago right by Wrigley Field where he lives. A good time was had by all! We rented out a very nice room and had great food and drinks...definitely a happy hour! The kidlets were able to be with us and then, we all stayed at Tim's place. Great Memories, enjoy the pictures! Happy Birthday Tim:)

We took the kidlets to Monches Farm this weekend. It was such a pretty Sunday drive in the "country" They had a little barn with animals and beautiful perennial gardens.

We came into this sight tonight after dinner~~ Grace and Tommy were playing together and Gracie decided to dress up her little brother. We busted out laughing and Tommy thought he was pretty funny himself!! This is one for the baby book:)

I just love this picture, Grace looks like such a big girl. She is growing before our very eyes. She has long enough hair for a pony tail! Big girl stuff:) Here she is ready to bake some cookies with mom. She loves cooking, baking and watching "cooking shows"-- too funny, our little Gracie M. She is such a good girl!!

This week, Tommy decided that he wanted to become mobile in the house and began scooting around on the floor! Probably to keep up after his sister:) SO, I had to take this picture....he got into mischief;) playing with Gracie's stroller and hiding under the dining room table. BUSTED at 6 months:).

Happy Fourth of July!

We have been busy at the Mount house....as you can see from the pictures. Last weekend, we had a party with MU college friends and their kids at our house. It was great, so good to see friends and catch up. The kids had a blast and too much fun!! Today, we went to the 4th of July Parade here in Tosa. It is a pretty big affair as people get their chairs out by 6 am and set up with food and stuff. We had such a fun time. Grace loved trying to catch the candy and Tommy -- after he woke up from a catnap, loved sitting on Josh's shoulders and watched the parade. If Licorice and Tootsie Roll candies are a food group, then Grace and mommy and daddy included;) mastered that task. After we had our friends Mia, Doug and Anna over to play for a bit. Then, Papa, Gigi and Uncle Tim came over for a bbq.We had a nice time hanging out and eating:) Teddy returned home to us after his week long stay with Club Barrett! My parents watched Teddy for us for the week. He loved it~ Teddy had a mini vacation from the crazy days here.

Happy 4th of July, we hope you all had a very safe one!

The boys-- Tommy is looking like such a big boy! Our little 6 month old is pictured here with Uncle Tim, our almost 30yr. old uncle-- birthday month begins for Tim:)

Papa, Gigi and the kidlets on the Fourth of July! We had a bbq and took a walk around the neighborhood.

Grace and Tommy going for a walk after dinner in the red wagon-- Tommy's 1st walk in the wagon, he loved it!!

Uncle Tim with Tommy, having fun on the 4th!!

Grace and Mia Dembowski-- having fun in the pool after the parade!

We went to the Tosa Independence Day Parade! Grace and Tommy loved it-- here is Gracie eating her very first lollipop. They give out A LOT of candy and the parade is so popular, people get out to set up chairs at 6 am. Josh went to set up a blanket with our buddies at 6:30. It was definitely worth it!! A good time was had by all!

Playing in the blow up jumping thing that the Wittenbergers brought, it was a hoot. The kids jumped for a while!

We had a party on Saturday with our MU friends and their kids! The kiddos had a blast, there are 9 of them pictured here.
