Is summer over yet?

I'm not talking about the heat.  The heat is fine as long as we can take a dip in the pool every afternoon.  I'm talking about Reese and Drake not being in school yet!!!!!!!!!!!  For the first time EVER, I understand the excitement of parents as they drop their kids off for the first day of school.  Reese and Drake are on each other's last nerve, and my nerves?  Let's not even talk about my nerves.  Let's just smile and enjoy the fact that Reese is upstairs playing with her baby and Drake is kicking a ball around the living room and I have a few minutes to sit and type.  Now, let's watch some videos.

Reese is OBSESSED with her baby book.  She asks me to read it every day, then she reads it to herself or Drake.  Over and over and over.  A bit narcissistic, maybe?  This is 6 minutes long, feel free to skip it.



Drake's new favorite word?  "Awesome!"  Kicking the ball with Daddy is always awesome!




Both Reese and Stella are amazing swimmers.  I can sit on the steps and watch them swim for 30 to 40 minutes, only stopping to take a breath.  It is definitely their happy place.  Check out Stella.



Drake and Reese love jumping in together.  Drake is rocking his floaties in this video, but he can also swim without them.  He can swim from the bench to Mommy, maybe a total of 10 feet?  I have a video but it's on Wes's phone.  I'll post it soon...




Reese is constantly serenading me on our car trips.  Here's a moving rendition of everyone's favorite Christmas song, Jinger Bells.




Chasing squirrels at the park.  Drake is so sweet..."Don't worry, we'll help you."




Drake loves putting the same puzzle together over and over again.  I decided to film a time lapse video for fun.




Stella has the BEST laugh...





Reese loves to pretend.  Here is a conversation between Mommy fish and baby fish.  I love how the mommy fish calls the baby sweetie.  Oh, and I love how the Mommy fish bribes the baby with candy. And the baby fish won't stay in his bed at nap time.  (Drake)  Adorable.





The aquarium has a fun bubble machine out front.  "Pop, pop, pop!!!!"
