Life has been super hectic lately, with birthday parties, get-togethers, soccer games, two nearby hurricanes, and just life in general! I pretty much feel like this picture all the time! Ha!
At the end of August, Wells started playing rec soccer. This is his first year, and he is learning a lot! Eric has been practicing with him at night, and he is getting better and better each day. Grayer usually wants to play, too (he will be on a team next year) and sometimes joins the kiddos on the field before or after practice. And Briggs just hangs out (and sometimes catches a little nap). One night each week and every Saturday morning, you can catch us at the ball park! #soccermomstatus
Also in August, Briggs was dedicated at our church. It was a sweet time with friends and family who came to celebrate with us. And Wells cracked everyone up by plopping right down on the stage steps and practicing his best modeling poses!
Wells is in PreK4 and Grayer is in a 2-day (morning only) PreK2 program. Why do they look so GROWN walking inside with their book bags????
On Labor Day, we made a quick day trip to Columbia, SC, to meet Eric's sister and mom at the zoo. The boys had a blast, especially at the new splash pad they built since our last trip there. But nobody had a better set-up than Briggs! :)
As usual, there's been lots of playtime! Our house ALWAYS has some kind of train track set up somewhere. Briggs is playing a little bit with toys now, too, which is fun.
Eric planted a little garden next to our front door earlier this year. The last couple of months we have had SO MANY butterflies flying around them! The boys love it, and I think we'll all be sad when they leave once it gets colder.
Eric and I recently had a little date night while my parents watched the kiddos. We got milkshakes, did a little shopping, and finally got to give Flaco's Tacos a try! Delish!
We ate lunch with Wells at school on a day that Eric had off from work. It was so fun to see him with all his friends. ...And there was a fake burp contest #because4yearoldboys
Briggs has remained to be the happiest baby on the planet. He is always smiling and just rolls with whatever we are doing. Love my littlest sidekick.
Wells has brought home some adorable artwork from school. Love his first family portrait! And I cracked up at his artwork about making a bad choice at school.
We took advantage of fall break and headed to Sea World with Eric's family. The boys had a great time, and we have been trying to catch up on sleep ever since! :)
We are in such a busy stage of life right now. Busy schedules, of course, but also just the busyness of having three little ones (someone always needs something!). We are wiped out at the end of each day, but our hearts are truly full. We get to spend each day loving on and laughing with the three greatest blessings we ever could have asked for!
