The first Tuesday of every month is dollar day at the Brazos County Natural History Museum so we headed over. The museum is really tiny, but there are some cool things to see.
Our friends, the Giffords, joined us to tour the George Bush Library on the Fourth of July. We had a little BBQ afterwards, but the kids were all in bed by 8 so no fireworks for us this year.
The kids almost made the 10-o-clock news here in College Station, but didn't make the cut.
Tyler loves to wear Brant's glasses and loves when I take a picture of him. He usually doesn't sit still long enough for me to take a picture because he gets up to look at himself on my phone. He likes the selfie so he can see himself the whole time.
Brant made me breakfast in bed last week and Spencer asked why he never got breakfast in bed. One reason would be because he wakes up at 6 everyday... but Brant is a great dad and made the boys a picnic breakfast. They felt so special and even got to watch a movie.
When I was putting Gavin down for a nap Spencer surprised me with a snack picnic! It was complete with 2 cups of peanuts, craisins, triscuits, and an oatmeal square. Tyler woke up right before we started our picnic and wanted to share. I love how much Spencer thinks of other people.
Gavin did swimming lessons for the first time this year. When he was actually paying attention to his teacher he did a great job. He can put his head in the water and loves to kick his legs and splash as much as possible. Brant took the boys to lessons every night for two weeks while I stayed home with Tyler. We all went the last night, though. Tyler had a really hard time when his brothers and Dad left without him so often.
We were so proud of Spencer at swimming lessons this year! He did such a great job swimming without touching the bottom. He has progressed so much since his first set of swimming lessons when he was afraid to even get in the water.
Gavin was so happy that he got a coloring page after being done with swimming lessons. Right after I took this picture I gave him my pen and he started coloring all the frogs.
