June = summer fun :)

Heyo!

We made it into the June updates :) Almost caught up! June was a big month for us. Heck, I think each day is big when we get through it and all dogs and kids are in one piece! But, truly it was big because we built our FENCE!! The fence meant ultimate running freedom for our 85 lb Shepard Ariel and sanity for mommy. About a week after, we had a huge thunderstorm and our neighbor's trees took down the back part. But no worries, it was repaired and we got a lot of help from the McKeown gang (thanks again guys!). The thunderstorms down here are frequent, consistent, and beautiful. Growing up on WA, we rarely had a thunderstorm, let alone one with a lightening show. 

On another note, Jocelyn loves unicorns. They are the ultimate creature because they have a horn and they are magical. She prefers them to be white, sparkly, and have wings. FYI a pegasus has wings and no horn, and a unicorn can have wings or not but it must have the horn. I had to google this! So unicorn trumps pegasus every time. 


Ah, and here we are with the beautiful Blue Eyes American Girl doll and Lina Beena Peena (as Jocelyn now calls Adelina. Sorry sweetie). Yes, Jocelyn named her new, special doll she got for her bday"Blue Eyes". Blue Eyes looks remarkably like Lina.


We built a solar system mobile for fun! Yes, Pluto made it as a dwarf planet :)




Tootsies! Adelina's feet are just the cutest. They are on the smaller side, so so soft and just made you want to kiss them! She still has the baby smell aw.


We take a lot of shots like these lately, since we are still into lying down on our back instead of our tummy.


(I quickly removed that plastic...of course she decided to try to eat it in the span of taking this picture :) J was opening a box right before and we got a group shot!)


We also visited with our best buds, the Woodruffs!! There are 6 little ladies, ranging from four years old to 2 months old pictured here! We have Ellen, J, Anna and Lucy, Adelina and Fiona.







And, if you didn't already know, we are big into gymnastics. In fact, we like to wear our leotard even outside of practice. It's pretty comfy J says. 


Jocelyn wore this same onesie as a baby, though the picture we have of her isn't as angry hehe. Tummy time still makes us grumpy!


We built the "Thing-ga-ma-jigger" from Cat n' the hat out of this box. We are pretty jazzed about it. We even took a secret selfie from mom's phone!




As you can see, we are getting into Legos. We have also been getting into Goldie Blox, which are very similar to tinker toys with a twist. We really love them, and if we do our chores we get to have new pieces each month :) It's really amazing to see Jocelyn build with them. We make the standard designs, but it's even better to see what she comes up with. We highly recommend them!


I lost some of my pictures for June, so here are some snap shots from the middle of the month until the end. Our big moment was Jocelyn's gymnastics show, Adelina having solids for the first time (bread!), Happy Father's day to the best dad in town <3, and planting this wonderful tree Pop Pop grew. Enjoy!










Up next, our littlest McKeown turns(ed) 6 months!
