Summertime!

It is definitely summertime, which means long, hot days, swimming, baseball, and trying to stay cool.  Here are some recent pics.

Helping me make apple sauce.  He had fun making it, but refused to eat it.

Throwing a bunch of pots and pans and kitchen utensils in the floor can keep them entertained for quite some time while we try to cook dinner.  It makes a mess, but you do what you got to!

Juan and I both celebrated birthdays in the month of May.  We turned 21 again!

At the Ranger's game for Juan's birthday.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!  Somebody bought himself a Jeep!  When Mateo saw it he said, "you got my Jeep.....but I wanted blue..." And then he started crying.

Mateo got a "real" bike with training wheels.  He has a great time riding it around the neighborhood.

Hood ornament?

This was one of my Mother's Day gifts.  I got spoiled rotten for Mother's Day as usual, by my wonderful husband and kiddos.  I am so very lucky!

More baseball with Grandpa!  3 generations of Ortegon men.

Pool time!

Mateo went to his friend Ellie's birthday party, while we were in the Bahamas.  This was his first outing without a family member.  One of his teachers picked him up, and we can tell he didn't miss us at all.  Ellie loves superheroes as much as he does!

Lots of outdoor time means lots of napping at school.  This is Mateo passed out at naptime at school.  I wish we could get him to nap like that at home!

Mommy and Daddy date night!
