August was awesome! We had so many fun things to do and spent a lot of good quality family time together.
Chase turned 29 this month so we celebrated with a small BBQ with some of his friends at our house. 
Then the next morning we got up bright and early and took the Catalina Flyer over to the small island just for the day. We had fun on the boat, had a great seafood lunch on the water, walked around the boardwalk and pier, and played on the beach. Hunter slept on Chase's lap on the boat ride home and woke up just in time to see some Dolphins swimming along side of us. Such a fun day.
The next week Papa and Grancy took Hunter and his cousins, Riley and Braden to Legoland for their birthday presents, and Jessica and I got to tag along! The kids loved going on all the rides, and playing in the splash zone.
Skyler is doing great as always. She is such a sweet baby, and can now sit up by herself for up to 20 seconds! She smiles all the time and laughs when tickled or when Hunter jumps around in front of her. She is eating fruits and vegetables now along with her rice cereal and breastmilk and hasn't found anything she doesn't like yet. We introduced the sippy cup this month and she really enjoys chewing on the spout and letting the water fall back out of her mouth. I was looking back at some baby pictures of her and was amazed at how different she looks already. She has lost almost all of the thick black hair she was born with (definately still a brunette though ;) and is plumping up with the perfect amount of baby fat. She is rolling all around the room in every direction and creeping a little bit with just her legs. When she figures out how to pull herself with her arms she will be moving fast. She also likes to sit in her walkers and johnny jump up while she watches her brother play.
What a blessed life I have to be able to spend every minute with these 2 miracles while they are still young. I am thankful every day.
