Sprinkler Playdate

The Cibula's invited everyone over for a perfect Summer playdate. Though, everything didn't go as Paula had planned, the kids had fun spending time together and keeping cool. While the mommies did their best to have an uninterrupted adult conversation : )

Alexandra and Ansley running through the sprinkler

Sophia's not only a great big sister to Alexandra but she loves helping out with all the other younger kids too. Here she is guiding Jessie toward the water.

The giant beach ball sprinkler never worked properly,

but the kids enjoyed playing with it anyway!

Ships Ahoy! It's a Boy!

Lucas and I were recently showered with all things blue and boy! I must say it was a complete surprise given he is my third child but very much appreciated! Everyone was so generous and I am so grateful to have such wonderful friends! THANK YOU!!!!

My fantastic hostesses; Kristen, Isabel, Adriana, and Paula, they are each so special and I'm so happy to have them in my life!

Of course, everything was adorable! With not a single detail left behind. The nautical theme was perfect for my little summer sailor. From the invitations to the favors, food and decor.

How creative! Rather than a traditional baby clothes line,

they used a fishing net and "caught" some precious "crabby" summer wear.

Look at these yummy summer desserts ... not only did they look delicious they tasted really good too. The perfect combo of sweet and tart, hopefully just like my little Lucas!

And to send us off into the sunset, crab and sailboat cookie favors.

So cute and yummy too!

When you gotta go ....

Sophia is 100% potty trained but you never want to take any chances. On our way back from the beach she suddenly said ... "uh, oh mommy " I immediately knew that meant she had to go poopy. So with nowhere to stop in sight, we quickly pulled over cause ...

when you gotta go, you gotta go : )

Rosemary Beach Vaca

Rather than ending our summer with the perfect beach vacation, this year we decided to kick off the summer with a trip to the white sands of Rosemary Beach. Perfect can't even describe how great it was! "Our beach house" (as Sophia says) was so spacious with ocean views and it's own pool. As you can see, all the kids, big & small, had a fabulous time soaking up the sun, splashing in the water, and playing in the sand!
