I recently sat down with Mr. Aidan Snow and spoke with him about a variety of issues. He humored me until eventually he got tired of answering questions and asked me to stop. I think I'll do this every year as a fun way to compare what they like/think... at least until they blow me off! :-)

Austin

Mississippi

A few pictures
Here are a few pictures from our recent trip to Texas. We decided to take a trip out to visit with Jared's brother and his family. We had a great time visiting with everyone, and the boys did not want to leave. Aidan has already asked many times when we're going back or when they can come visit.
Austin & the youngest of the cousins
Aidan and Austin both rode this water ride twice. They loved it!
Happy Fourth of July!
Austin & Mommy on the "VIP Bus" on 4th of July to go watch Uncle John's Apache Flyover
The love affair with Anna continues! SWEET baby!!!
Aidan and his only male cousin - for a little longer anyway. He has two more on the way!
The whole crew getting an up-close look at Uncle John's Apache
The walk back to the car after the flyover.
I did not think ahead and wore a skirt that day. Luckily, I was still able to carefully climb up to get a chance to see the inside!
All the cousins ready to start the day at Sea World!

We love our new pool!
It has been SO hot, so we recently bought a pool for the backyard. It is so nice to be able to be outside and break up the monotony of being in the house all day.
Aidan is swimming like a fish. He uses goggles and goes down to the bottom of the pool to get his rings. He is great at holding his breath, too.
Austin trades back and forth between wearing his swim vest and going without it. He is getting much more confident while not wearing it. The great thing about the pool is that it is deep enough to practice swimming but shallow enough to be able to stand up in. Austin loves dunking himself.
Anna has gotten in the pool a few times, and she is getting more comfortable with it. The boys are just a little too wild for her to be in it for any long periods of time.
Our newest addition to our backyard land 'o fun is a water slide.
Maddux stays right beside the pool the whole time people are in it. He especially loves it when the boys spray him with their water sprayers. He tries to eat the water and chase it around the yard. When the horseplay gets too loud or if someone goes under water, he starts to bark. Always the protector, but don't worry... we don't use him as our lifeguard. :-)

4 months
I missed this update a few days ago, but Anna is four months old now. She is such a wonderfully happy baby, and we are all smitten. She grins all the time, and she especially loves when I bounce her on my knees and sing "Yankee Doddle." She is starting to laugh, but it sounds a little like a sneeze. It is so sweet!
She can roll from both back to tummy and tummy to back. The doctor was so impressed with her strength. She is still in the 75% - 90% for both height and weight. We love you, Anna! <3

Bowling was great... until we had to leave.
Summer has arrived, so we've been trying to think of some great indoor activities. The other day, we all went up to the base to go bowling ($2 games and $1 shoes - can't beat that!). The boys had a GREAT time - until it was time to go home. Next time it may just be easier to leave them at the bowling alley and pick them up the next day. ;-)
