Florida...

We spent a wonderful week at the beach in Florida. It was our first time to Destin and it was BEAUTIFUL! They definitely call it the Emerald Coast for a reason. Kaitlyn and Alexis loved playing in the sand and jumping in the waves. Greyson pretty much chilled under the umbrella and took naps. He was a trooper though. On Sunday we decided to go to church and eat all of our meals at the hotel and maybe play at the beach for a bit. Well, we all got up early, showered, put on our nice clothes and headed to 9:00 am church. When we got there nobody was in sight and there was a sign on the door saying it was stake conference. There was no reference to where conference was or what time. Jared and I looked at each other, smiled and headed straight to the beach! At least we tried, right?

The girls loved playing in the white, powdery sand

We also went to the Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola. It was AWESOME!

I have a horrible fear of bridges and had a panic attack walking across this bridge with my kids. I think it's gotten worse with age, considering I once jumped out of a plane, but now cannot walk across a two story bridge =)

He's such a smiler.

The kiddos...

I haven't blogged in forever! We just got back from vacation a few days ago (more on that to come), but here's what's new with the kiddos!

Greyson is exactly 6 months old in this picture. He's always smiling =)

At his 6 month checkup he weighed 18 pounds 5 ounces and was 27.5 inches long. He's rolling and scooting all over the place. He is a champ at eating solids. By far the best appetite of all my children. He'll sit on his own for a minute or so before toppling over.

Lexie is so stinkin cute she gets away with everything. Definitely a mama's girl. She's speaking a lot more clearly and really learning a lot. She starts mother's day out in the fall - we'll see how that goes!

Kaitlyn finished out the school year with her dance recital. She took tap and ballet lessons all year and liked it okay, but when she found out she got to wear this cute outfit and dance on a stage she suddenly fell in love with dance. My oh my was she adorable to watch!
I can't believe my little Katy will start Kindergarten in the Fall. She's definitely ready for it, but I don't know if I am. There's just something more official about Kindergarten then pre-k. I guess they have to grow up sometime =(
