It's the Busiest Time of the Year....

Yep, that's right...this is the busiest time of year for me at work.  Forget Spring busy season because there are no more extensions past 9/15.  This might be my last blogpost until after deadline.....we'll see.  So, let's catch up....UM....it's HOT!  We have to get to the park by 8am in order to enjoy our time there and the walk home from the park is most brutal.  Last Saturday we wanted to check out the Splashpad and it was closed due to mechanical failure, so we enjoyed the playground instead.  Here is our little guy enjoying a new playground in his swim gear!



We have a climber!  He ran to the spider web and started climbing.  Unfortunately, we were only able to play for 30 minutes before it was too hot.  So, sometimes we ride his bike in the house....this time he multi-tasked and walked his puppy at the same time.

And it's never too early to learn some financial responsibility.  Brock found some of Daddy's change so I introduced him to his piggy bank.  He loved putting the coins in.....

But then wanted to know where they went....
"I know I put them in there....." 
And then I had to snicker when he tried to shake them out.....
I stepped in once he found the stopper on the bottom of his piggy bank.  So, if you would like to donate to Brock's piggy bank he welcomes change or bills.  :)

Love the piggy bank. One of our speakers told us that every week when he gave his son his allowance he'd say "Now what are you to do with this money" and his son would have to say "Spend a little, save a little, and give the rest away". I thought that was such a cool message.

Awesome pics as well. I couldn't help but laugh a little while sitting here in the library which of course induced a stare.

Keep up the great work on being a super mom/dad combo. I can't wait to come home and see the little guy all grown up
