The Heat is Rising

This morning after Austin used the potty this is what I found him doing.  

We hit a playground early today to get some energy out before the temp got too high.  Then we checked out some books at the library.

After that I took the kids to Snip-its so Hunter could get his hair cut.  His hair was so long and thick that when she started buzzing it off in the back I was a little shocked at how much hair was falling to the floor.


He noticed a lady in the hair place that had black and red hair and said he wished his hair could be a different color.  So his hairdresser introduced him to  gel that changes your hair color.  He picked blue.  

Could he look any older?  What happened to this little guy?

Haha...he wasn't really little then even though he was only 3 months old here and close to 20lbs!  We were looking through pictures last night and we were all laughing at chubby Hunter photos.


Here he is when he was actually little (for about 5 minutes of his life)  He liked to make this monkey face.  The more we laughed at him, the more he did it.  Kind of like now.  

Ok...back to present day...


I started working last night on making t-shirts for Austin, Hunter, and Landon for our trip to Williamsburg.  Here's what they looked like last night before I put the dye on them.  The ones on the left will have a spiral and the ones on the right will have a bullseye.

After letting them soak overnight this is what the spiral ones looked like...Hunter was so excited he wanted to put it right on.  His response was, "How did you do that?  Did you knit it?  I've always wanted one of those.  Everyone at school has one!"  Glad he likes it.

I'm not finished with the green and yellow shirt yet.  I am going to add something to the back.  I also made red, white, and blue shirts for July 4th.  I'll post pictures of those tomorrow.


The kids had a great time in the pool today.  Austin and Ella's new float thingys work so well.  Today they both were jumping in off the side and "swimming" around.  I could not take any pictures because I was there to catch them when they jumped.  Hunter is pretty much a fish and has perfected his back flip (in the water, not from the side).  So glad we have the pool...tomorrow it is supposed to be 106!  I think that is an all time high for Raleigh, ever.  Woohoo!
