Serious Business

Sometimes there are just no catchy words to soften the blow of having not posted for weeks. Pictures are the best I can do in this heat:
.
Ken and Kolene came to visit for a week. We had a wonderful time swimming and sightseeing. Remember the Alamo! The kids were fascinated with the Alamo cannons.
.
I also met up with Nicole while she was in San Antonio with her husband and sister. I miss my girlfriends! But that is a post for another day.

Austin is weird. Really. Everyone wears shirts that read "Keep Austin Weird." One of the weird things is this yearly bat migration. The bats come up from Mexico in the spring to nest and have babies under the Congress Avenue bridge. Then they fly out every evening at twilight and eat three million mosquitoes. Seriously. They might put Kraig out of business :)
.
Speaking of Kraig and work, things are now in full swing for the summer. He is working like crazy and sleeping when he's not at work. Kraig came home from work one night and fell asleep on the couch. Andy woke up and came to give Kraig a kiss goodnight and fell asleep with him. Andy certainly is his daddy's son. I can't believe how much alike they are..

Andrew lost his first tooth. Ken worked on getting it out with pliers. It freaked Andrew out (hence the tear stained face), but he was all smiles in the end with his first baby tooth in hand. The tooth fairy brought him a new toothbrush that lights up. Pretty cool. His second tooth is loose and he told me today that he wants to put my electric tooth brush under his pillow with a note that says, "Dear tooth fairy. I want one like this with Sponge Bob on it. Andy" So now the tooth fairy is taking orders? Sheesh..
Joshy got a hero cape as a prize at the grocery store. I made him a mask to go with it and he has been my superhero ever since. He seriously thought he would be able to fly off the couch with his cape and mask on. It was priceless!.
Kraig grew a mustache for a few days. He decided kissing me was more fun than the weird looks people gave him, so he shaved :)

And here is a little video of Thomas sharing some ice cream with his brothers. Enjoy!
