June 2013 in pictures

Due to my blogging delinquency, we are once again going back in time to look at months past, but alas, it is what it is.  Here's the month of June told through a totally random assortment of pictures.

 I checked out the new Pearl Cup coffee shop by my house one Saturday afternoon while P napped and enjoyed a latte and a good book.


 P fell asleep on a morning run after waking up too early.


 Got together with some friends for a cookout.  Here's P with his buddy Jay playing with stickers.


J's been making some real progress in the backyard this summer.  Here's a before and after of the bed right outside of our back door.  Our trumpet vine has yet to bloom (boo), but everything has been growing because J installed drip irrigation.  Go figure, if things get watered every day, they grow!  Seriously...drip irrigation has changed our life.  I highly recommend it.


 5 minutes before this picture was taken, P was fully clothed.  He proceeded to ask me to remove his shoes, then his shirt, and then his pants. :)  Happy summer.


 We were able to go and say hello to our neighborhood cows several times this month.


 Sweet sister had two baby showers during the month of June!


 The doves that live in my grandparents' courtyard laid their second set of eggs for the summer in my grandma's hanging basket.  Here are the two babies. :)


 While shopping for tri gear with dad, P figured out the age-old childhood game of "disappear inside the racks of hanging clothes in the store."


 I got new running shoes...the uglier they are, they faster you go, right? :)


 Mom and dad went to Italy to celebrate their 60th birthdays this year.  P enjoyed being able to chat with them via FaceTime.  Technology is pretty cool.


 P had a blast at our dear friends' little girl's 3rd birthday party.


 Elephant + sprinklers = so fun!


 Playing with the bubble machine after lunch.


 After his haircut we walked down to J.D.'s Chippery, and my little boy who doesn't like sweets asked for a "cookie bite." :)  There may be some evidence of his cookie bite of choice on his lower lip.


 On my flight to San Francisco, I had to watch the NBA Finals Game 7 like this...on the laptop of the guy who sat in the row in front of me.  Since I couldn't listen to the game, I also followed along by watching the ticker on the bottom of the screen while having my TV tuned to ESPN2.


 Got off the plane just in time to watch my beloved Spurs lose to the Heat. :(


 After a number of trips to Braums where sweet P didn't get anything while Mommy and Daddy did (it's not our fault - the kid really doesn't have a strong desire for sweets!), we got him his own little cup of vanilla yogurt.  He enjoyed a few bites and then was "all done!"  Not to worry...I helped him finish it. :)


 P went for his first ride in the car grocery cart.  He loved it.  I got a hardcore arm and core workout.  Those things are NOT easy to steer!


 P enjoyed a popsicle. :)


 At small group we had a sno cone party. :)  Yum!


 P wanted his water table to be a swimming pool.


P has gotten back into enjoying the game of turning the lights on and off.  He'll come up to you and say, "Hold you."  At first you think he's wanting to snuggle you, but you soon realize that he's only using you as a means to an end - you're taller than him, and he needs your height to help him reach the light switch.  At GiGi and Gramps', P found another solution...bypass the middle-man and take matters into your own hands.


 J and I celebrated our 8 year anniversary with a dinner out to Nicola's at the shops at Legacy thanks to a giftcard from his parents as a congrats for completing his Ironman.

The End. :)
