4th of July

first sail!

thanks kelsey and lindsey for the outfit and pacifiers! we love them!!

kc and Alex took the sail boat out for he first time! it is really heavy and hard to transport, but we did it. they had a hard time getting going its not too stable of a boat. and once they got out there pretty far, it started raining, the waves got big and dumped a load of water in the boat! ha ha poor guys.was a good time. so we decided that since we got it for free we are going to put a little money in it(for paint) and clean and sand it well to sell it for 300-500 bucks and then buy a better boat, fix it up, buy a better boat and so on. until hopefully we get a boat big enough to sail to California next summer when we come home! keep your fingers crossed for us.









oh man the sail fell... haha no worries they got it back up.

ha ha i love this guy! the Dumbo is GREAT for the beach.









ha ha kc decided to make a hat out of royals diaper. so cute!

2 month doctor appointment

royal had an appointment today he is doing great! he weighs 11lbs 15oz, 24in long! he is 50th percentile for weight and 75th for height. poor guy had two shots and he cried for so long! worst thing ever!!!!!!!!!!!! the nurse is terrible at shots! she like stabs him and the needle made a 2 inch scrape across his leg. royal and i dont like the shot lady! but royal is doing well now he had a good nap... so so sweet.

Step 1... learn to sail

We found a lady who had a sailboat she needed to get rid of, free of charge.

Alex was the mastermind who checked craigslist at just the right moment...
It needs a little love, but I'll tell you what, this sailing dinghy has more character in it's little finger than the new fiberglass ones have in all their appendages combined. If sailboats had appendages I mean.

2 whole months...

There was a pretty weak dinosaur exhibit at the mall, but hey, dinosaurs are dinosaurs (Sherry nearly wet herself)

Don't you know the Dominicans are great baseball players? She taught Pujols all he knows.



Royal, testing out the bumbo seats at walmart... he loved it so we settled on a blue on so he didnt look like a tiny girl sitting in it.

Just the amazing view from my balcony...
