In the Yard

Today the boys put on their gloves to help Nana do some yard work. 

 Sterling kicked back and watched the boys.

 Farmer Pierce

Saturdays are the Best

The day started off with Daddy putting together the jumper for Sterling.  He loved it and so did his brothers. :)

 Then we took a ride around the neighborhood.

 Pierce started off on his scooter,

 but then decided to walk Ellie.

 Ellie was really the one taking him for a walk.

 In the afternoon we headed to the indoor aquatic center. 

 Beckett was in heaven!

 Pierce must have gone down this slide 30 times.

 It was Sterling's first time in the water.  He seemed to really enjoy the water. 

 Sweet Boys

 SO MUCH FUN

 Mommy and Sterling took a break from the water

 and the big boys kept playing.

 Beckett's favorite part was when they would turn on the wave machine. Daddy and Beckett are against the wall in this picture.

 

Saturdays are the best!

Happy Birthday, Uncle Eric!

Today we headed down to the Pearl District to celebrate Uncle Eric's 21st birthday.  As you can wee, Sterling was super excited about the big event!

Donuts for Dessert

The other night the whole family was over and Aunt Noel brought donuts from Voodoo Donuts.  Oh man, did the boys love them!  Pierce had one with Captain Crunch cereal on it and Beckett's was dripping with something yummy!

Sterling's Day

Sterling started the day with morning snuggles from big brother, Beckett.

 This afternoon Sterling and Momma watched Nana and the boys make cookies.

 

This evening Sterling went on an evening walk with the family.

 What a great day!

Morning at the Park

Auntie is town!  YAHOO!!  

So this morning we headed to the park.

 Sterling kicked back in the shade,

 while the big boys played on the playground.

 Beautiful Boys

 And of course we had to play in the water fountains too!

Rob and Shana's Wedding

Last night Daddy, Mommy and Sterling

 attended Rob and Shana's Wedding.

 The wedding was at the Botanical Gardens. 

 Lots of family was in town for the big event.

 Sterling and Great Grandma Naomi

 Good Ol' Uncle Steve

 Sterling loves his Nana.

 Sweet Hugs

 What a fun night!

Week in Sunriver

These week the boys and Mama headed out on a road trip to Sunriver,

 

 where we met up with the Olson Family.

 We were SO excited to see them!

 As soon as we got there, the kids got right to playing. 

 On Tuesday we went to Bouncing off the Wall,

 where the kids played on a bunch of inflatables and there were games too. 

 In the afternoon we headed to the village.  The kids were super excited to ride the train.

 Then we played a little mini-golf.

 This is how Beckett played

 and this is how Pierce played.

 This year Beckett met the height requirement for the bumper cars.

 Ready for Action

 Millie was one serious driver.

 Beckett said this was his favorite activity we did during the week.

 Afterwards we headed to the sweatshirt shop to get new duds.

 All the kids and their new sweatshirts.

 Of course we had to stop by the ice cream shop.

 YUMMY!

 Evie was always right there to help with Pierce.

 On Wednesday the sun was shining, so we spent the day at the pool.

 

The boys loved the sand area

 that was next to the pool.

 Swimmin'

 After the boys tired of the little pool, they put on their life jackets

 and headed to the big pool with the big kids.

 Ollie helped Pierce stay in the shallow water.  Pierce kept trying to get deeper and deeper.

 Beckett Boy

 Sweet Sterling lounged in the shade.

 Mary was awesome and helped the boys in the pool.

 Break Time

 That evening the kiddos rode bikes.

 Pierce was really getting the hang of his scooter.

 Beckett had lots of fun of the Olson's 360.

 Even Pierce got a try.

 Look at Millie go!

 Popsicle Time

 All that fun sure wore the kids out.

 On Thursday we headed back to the pool.

 Piercey-Pie

 Beckett did a great job swimming on the second day.  He was much more comfortable in the water.

 Ready to Swim

 Sterling and Mama hung out poolside.

 

There were so many things for Sterling to watch.

 Fun with Mary

 In the afternoon we headed inside to the indoor pool.

 Ollie and Piercey

 Then it was time to go home for dinner.

 Today we headed back to Portland, but before we left we went to the park.
