What a crazy last few months...

I know it's been forever since we've posted. Sorry:) We really have been pretty busy these last few months. In April we moved into our new house! Yeah! We love it! Kayla finally has her own room and can sleep in peace from the noisy twins. The twins are loving all the new space to be able to try out their crawling and almost walking skills. Our home is in the PERFECT location too. We are close to the Campbell grandparents and walking distance to the church, park and grocery store. We absolutely love it. Also, I started a new job. The kids daycare is great and we are lucky enough to have it next door. Simply being able to walk them over saves us about 30 minutes everyday having to load and unload them from carseats. Nick and I keep saying that we were meant to live in this house because everything is just falling into place so nicely.
We had some scares with Nick and Charlie again, unfortunately. But it has all turned out okay. Nick is still in the process of trying to find out what is going on with his stomach. He has a new GI doctor, who has been wonderful. We are just going to do everything we can to figure this out and get Nick healthy. Also, Charlie is doing great!! But we were a little nervous about a month ago because he had some lab values jump up. It turned out that it was just the flu, but with his condition, just about anything out of the ordinary puts me on high alert.
In June we had lots of family come to stay. It was so great to see them all. My sister and her hubby and 2 kids came and my brother from California and my parents. It had been years since we had all been in one place at the same time, so it was a bit like a family reunion.
We have been so lucky to have such great friends and family who are always willing to help. We appreciate it so much.
Here are some of my favorite pictures of these last few months.

Charlie's new mohawk

All together for the Scottish festival

Eating all that spagetti wore her out!

Lots of grandkids on their way to get sno-cones

Kayla used to hang on to his ears, now I guess the cheek and chin are good enough:)

All 3 kids interested in the same thing at the same time! I wonder if that'll ever happen again...
We pulled up all of the laminate flooring so we could get carpet.
Hangin' out on the deck
This is before we first mowed our lawn. There were dandelions galore.
The twins loved it
It is getting increasingly difficlut to hold both twins. They are just so squirmy and HEAVY!
A new hiding place from Mom:)
