The Davis Family: Happy 4th of July!

We had one of the busiest weeks ever after returning from our Myrtle Beach trip. Drew had a birthday party for his buddy Blake on Sunday. It was a pizza and movie party and although Drew had a blast and enjoyed seeing "Up," he fell asleep the last few minutes of the movie. He was tuckered out from our week at the beach. The rest of the week was crazy due to painters being here. We've wanted to paint some rooms of our home since we moved in and finally got around to it. It was a big job so we hired professionals. It's a good thing we did because it took them four full days to do it, I can't imagine how long it would have taken George and I! Drew and I tried to get out of their way most of the time so spent much of the week out and about. That was exhausting for me as running errands in the summer heat with a 36 pound kid gets less and less fun! When we were at home, Drew was obsessed with watching the painters ("his friends" as he called them!). He was amazed at the twenty foot pole they used to get our foyer and watched from George's office with a huge grin! He waved and said "Hi, good job guys!" over and over. They were sweet as can be to him! Drew is super excited about his new blue room (I'll upload photos soon) and George and I are eager to move him in there so we can get the nursery ready - Baby Davis's arrival is fast approaching! Today we celebrated the 4th of July with a neighborhood bash. Drew was beyond thrilled with a huge water slide they had. He had to climb a high wall to get there but didn't mind one bit. He never got tired of it! Most kids would play for a bit and then move on to something else but our boy played on it for four hours straight, never taking a break for food or anything else. He must have gone down the slide 100 times at least. He finally took a break after 9pm when they started the fireworks and then we were able to talk him into going home after that. He fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow and I'm not far behind him. George went back to help clean up (I think he really just wanted to help kill the keg!) Have a fun and safe 4th of July!

Standing behind the birthday boy! Happy 6th birthday Blake!

With Lauren at the movies.

Asleep in the movies! Poor Drew was worn out from our vacation!

Little slugger! Drew adores baseball and he's quite good if you don't mind my bragging! He can hit really well and throw well too. He's not too hot with catching yet so that's what we were working on.

Drew's ready!

Playing in the backyard with Lauren. They moved our little slide to the pool and had a blast! Guess hitting bricks on your bottom doesn't hurt with a diaper on.
