We officially have a ONE year old AND a FOUR year old!
June was a busy month full of birthdays, cousins, VBS', camps, pool days and friends.
Thomas turned ONE on May 28th. Since it fell on Memorial Day, we postponed his celebration till the next weekend so SueSue, BooBoo, Iffy and all of his cousins could be here to help us party. We spent some time at the pool followed by a cook-out. We had plans to go to the Sounds game for a little baseball and fireworks but sadly the game was cancelled due to weather. We made the most of it and Thomas and the girls were just happy to have the Boys here. He also really loved opening his presents! Thomas of course had his first taste of cake and he enjoyed it! He was a little skeptical at first but then went for it with 2 hands...and had to rub it all over his hair too!

Other than his fun birthday, Thomas is doing great. He is still a great sleeper (10-13 hours a night) and really loves big kid food. No more baby food for this guy. His current favorites are ANY kind of meat or fruit. Especially deli meat and oranges. He is a great walker now and thinks he can run - which usually ends in a face plant - but he is trying! He also LOVES to climb on anything and everything. Whenever he hears music, he has to stop and dance - his favorite seems to be Flo-Rida - go figure! He finally got another tooth. We had been stuck on 6 for a while now but on Father's Day, #7 finally broke through. He went in for his 12 month check-up (a little late) and everything looks good. He weighs 23.8 lbs (75%) and is 30 5/8 inches long (76%). He is officially the runt of the family as the girls have always been in the 90% of everything! I'm guessing he will catch up at some point!
Sullivan turned FOUR on June 2! She started her birthday celebration on Thursday, June 2. She got to take a cookie cake to school which is always fun. After school she got to go to Toys R Us and get her birthday balloon, crown and pick out one toy. Of course she chose a Frozen art kit. As is our tradition, she got to pick our dinner spot and she chose Chuy's - she loves some cheese dip! We came home after dinner to open presents. I think she had a great day!
Her party was on Saturday, June 4 and she wanted to have a Frozen Pool Party. We woke up Saturday morning to downpours of rain and storms. So we decided to go burn some energy at Above All with the cousins all morning. After a little bit of panic (with no back-up plan for her party), Mother Nature cut us some slack and we managed to have a storm free party for several hours Saturday afternoon. It did rain a little bit, but the kids thought it was so fun to swim in the rain! I think Sully had a great time and she had so many sweet neighborhood and school friends come!

Sullivan is also doing well. She is definitely a middle child! She is not afraid to be loud and make her presence known! We seem to be over the worst of the Three-nager stage so hopefully Four will continue to get better and better! She did great at her Four year old check-up also. Luckily no shots for her. She had a major growth spurt over the last 12 months. She now weighs 46 lbs (97%) and is 42 3/4 inches tall (97%). She gained 8 lbs in the past year and grew 3.5 inches!

Hudson is also doing well. She is busy at Kindergarten Boot Camp at the Academy. She goes 5 days a week and is really enjoying it! Here is a little video of her showing off her gymnastics skills at Above All:
Other than birthday parties, June was full of pool days with friends, member night at the Zoo, and Pizza and a Sounds game for fireworks with Friends. Hudson also went to 3 different VBS' and Sullivan went to one. They LOVE VBS so much. Sullivan still loves gymnastics camp also. Both girls go to Soccer camp in late July and they can't wait for that!
We are off to the lake this week for July 4th so everyone is counting down to that trip as usual! We get to spend a whole week with SueSue BooBoo, Aunt Eileen, Uncle Pace and the boys!
As always, here are all of the pictures from our June fun:
