Father's Day



We enjoyed Father's Day and started out making Dad his favorite breakfast of French Toast! We even added a little Mexican flavor with some Horchata-yum!



We all enjoyed breakfast!



Andrew is the best Dad for many reasons but my number one is that he always makes time for us. He often jokes that it is a "Christmas Miracle" that he is able to get any work done at all. We love having him home and hope that we don't get in the way--too much!


pretty sure he was in the middle of work when they bombarded his lap!


Just can't get enough of them!

We all love our daddy and I love him more each day as I see him interacting with our kids!

So Proud


Andrew's work goal for the year was to become a featured merchant on Amazon. There aren't requirements or even a "how-to" check list but as of a couple weeks ago, he did it! I am super proud of him and all of his hard work! We are busier than ever but it's a good busy {that's what we keep telling ourselves anyway} just weird timing because with his new "status" he has less free time because he is a packaging robot! Besides the websites they sell to and normal consumers, he's sold to: Pixar, NASA and Apple to name a few. Pretty cool.

My Super Man

School has been in session now for one whole week and I have been gone every day so far. My sister came one day and watched the kids but besides that Andrew has been Mr. Mom and I have to give him props he is doing great! Better than great, he is thriving! This week besides his own work related responsibilities he has fed the kids, walked them to the park, put them to bed, made beds, returned library books, and even went grocery shopping for me. I seriously couldn't have a better husband this week!


These next four months are going to be intense and I am so grateful for Andrew's support because I really couldn't do it without him! To make my week even better his mom made us dinner twice this week...I feel so loved and spoiled! All this help makes me want to hire a live in maid to do all the "household" chores , that won't ever happen but I can dream, right?!


Even the kids have transitioned wonderfully. As I am heading out the door Carson has even been telling me, "Be nice to your teacher mom!" When I come home he asks, " so, how was your day?" He is so thoughtful and I love him. Caitlin is still happy go lucky and lights up when she sees me. They make being away not so bad when I know I get to come home to them! Andrew mentioned to me that he feels like he has bonded with Caitlin this week and I thought that was super sweet of him to say. Caitlin is daddy's little girl!

Another reason he is my superman is that their basketball team is yet again champions! They lay hard and are competitive. Although their last game started pretty late we went and I am glad we did, they are awesome!

Official team picture

Carson's version
I love how they played to him it sure made for a more candid shot don't you think.

After watching me take their picture and after he took their picture he said, "my turn" and posed--he is a funny guy!
