Play ball!!!

We are just getting out of ball season around here. I definitely got "ball fever" this year. Braxton moved up to t-ball and you would have thought it was the majors. ;) Around here we have tee-wee for 3 and 4 year olds and then t-ball. In t-ball they actually have positions and can get out. Our team did great and took first at our ball park! Braxton improved SO much and really learned a lot! We ended up taking a 5 year old team to All Stars! 

Sweet girls

We call Addilyn and Annabelle the girls. They are so sweet and Addilyn plays with Annabelle pretty good. She gets a little rough sometimes. :) Addi is starting to talk up a storm. She cracks us up with the way she talks. She tells me she wants to hold Momma, meaning she wants me to hold her. She will tell me she wants to rock, rock when she wants me to rock her. She is pretty laid back and quiet around other people. She gets very nervous and shy in new places or situations. We just love her and Junior says he wants to squeeze her all the time.
Annabelle is crawling all over and of course doesn't want to stay in the living room where her toys are. Ha! She loves to eat and gets very upset if she thinks you are feeding her too low. I am still nursing her because she has an intolerance to a dairy protein. So I have to limit my dairy intake. She is much better then when she was a little baby. This is the longest I have breastfed any of my babies. Annabelle is the most vocal baby. Being baby number three, she is definitely not going to be forgotten! Lol!

Life lately

Busy! Busy! Busy! That describes our life. 19 more days of school, then it is summer time! This house is excited! Sleeping in is not much of an option with Addilyn and Annabelle, but not having to rush around and get ready to go is going to be so nice. I feel like all I do is yell at kids to get ready.
It is ball season around here and Braxton is playing t-ball. Junior is helping coach and we are having a great time with it. Braxton has really improved too! Braxton is five and very into all things superheroes. He has a best friend named Peyton and Peyton is in my class at school. Here is my silly boy.

Braxton and Addilyn update

Time is flying and my family is growing. By numbers and growing older. Ha! Braxton started kindergarten! Wow! I am back teaching and get to be there with him everyday, but I sure do miss my girls! Addilyn is two and so much fun! She has a contagious smile and is really starting to talk. She loves being outside, but still loves her bows!

I am back!

HELLO!  I am here! It has been awhile and life has been happening. Ha! Another Salard baby has been born and she is now 7 months old. Wow!
Here is Annabelle Callie

Friends

We have been having play dates all summer long with friends. We try to get together about once a week and whoever can come, comes and if  not you come the next time. Our kids love it and it is fun finding something for them to do. Here are some picture from an inside jumper place called Slinkees.

Sweet Maddi and Addilyn

 Maddi, Madison and Addilyn - they are so good with her!

 Best friends in the making - Addilyn & Lilly

Braxton, Grant, Sophie & Peyton 

I am so thankful for my sweet Christian friends. I couldn't ask for better friends for me or for my kids to grow up with. I can just see these 4 in 10 years when they are 13 or 14 and still so close. That makes me so thankful. Well, Sophie might start thinking they are a little gross, but that's okay. :)
