Celebrating the 4th!

I am a little behind on my blogging.... better late then never:-)

Although I was VERY apprehensive to take the boys in fear of melt downs, I agreed to give it a shot and go see the BEST fireworks ever. Arlington track puts on quite a show!! Here are the 6 kiddos looking absolutely ADORABLE!

We really didn't plan to be color coordinated!

"Thanks Uncle Cam for helping me bet on #5"

"WINNER WINNER, CHICKEN DINNER!"

Q won $12:-)

Situations like this can be tough for Q BUT he did GREAT and I was a very, very, very proud mama!

My parents were there too. It was great to spend the day with the whole family!

Getting ready for 3D fireworks!

Zachary did great too! He didn't go to bed until after 11:00 pm. I had to wake him up the next morning to head out to our next holiday celebration. Stand by for more pics!

Friday Fun

On Friday we spent some time one again at LZ spray park. We were so excited to have Uncle Ben, Auntie Kaley & Grant join us.

The little guys "sharing" toys:-)

I didn't do a very good job getting pics. After the spray park we all headed to our house for Pizza Friday. After dinner, Kaley and I decided to give the little guys a tub.

There are SOOO many cute pics but this is the only one that is rated PG:-)

A memorable anniversary!!!

On Sunday we celebrated my parents 40th wedding anniversary. I can't say it was exactly a romantic and relaxing day for them BUT it was memorable!!!

We spent the afternoon at Joilet Speedway watching my dad and Uncle Jim race Nascar cars.

Me and my big boy
Daddy and our baby boy

Enjoying a beautiful day

Is it just my imagination or do they look THRILLED to be taking this picture?!?!?

ZOOM! Uncle Jim is in car in the front, and my dad in the back. They were doing just over 140 MPH here

They did GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Relaxing

Time for more snacks

"Who loves Auntie Stacey?"

"MEEEEEEEEEEE"

After dinner we surprised my parents and took them out to eat.

Happy 40th anniversary to the most amazing parents in the world!!! Love you both so much!

Can you believe.....

I let my clean child play in the rain. He was all ready for bed and it started raining pretty good. I figured WHAT THE HECK, go for it kiddo!

Needless to say he had a BLAST!

He was actually swimming in puddles on the driveway.

Father's Day Fishing

Q was SOOOO excited to give Daddy his Batman hat for Father's Day. Ironically enough Q got the same Batman hat from the Willis family for his birthday.

We spent the morning with the Jurczyk family at the beach fishing.

Happy Father's Day to Randy & Adam!!!
The kiddos were so good!

Ready to fish

Enjoying their morning

Even Zachy attempted some fishing

Thanks Uncle Adam for helping Q

TT was doing such a great job keeping all the little tummies full

These two are SOOOO stinkin cute together!!!

Although we didn't catch any fish we had a great morning enjoying good friends and family

1st Soccer Practice

Ok so I am a tad bit behind on my blogging:-) A few weeks ago Q started Mighty Kickers soccer. He is on the Green Machine team.

I have pretty much given up on getting a pic of Q, we just go right to the "silly face" pictures.

I am pretty sure Q decided it was time to run the cones.
Stop the ball

Game On

Having fun and getting out tons of energy!

Just a random pic:-)

SPIDERMAN!!!!!

As I mentioned in my previous post, my parents decided to have Spiderman painted on Q's wall for his birthday present. Initially, it was going to be a Cubs jersey with Q Witt on the back. Q has a Cubs room. We went on to the painters website to look at her jersey samples. When Quintin saw Spiderman on her site he went NUTS! I kept explaining to him that he didn't have a Spiderman room. My INSANELY creative mother came up with the idea of having Spidey wear a Cubs jersey so it would stick with the theme of the room. When we decided on the Spidey that would work best, we talked about the web. Thank you to Great Papa & Grandma Betty for making up the additional cost for the web. It really does make the painting!

Q LOVES his Spidey... can you blame him? :-) Here is a picture that will give you an idea just how big he is. If you could hear the adorable conversations he has with his new buddy it would melt your heart!

You may remember pictures I posted a few months back of my parents playroom. Q's spiderman was painted by the same artist. Her name is Leslie Michaels and she is AMAZING! Check out her site!!!!!!!!!!
