Patrick took a motorcycle trip to New Mexico to visit his Grandpa and everytime he leaves something crazy happens. This time we got invaded with Ants! Meagan was on the computer and Anthony came to her crying because he had an ant on his leg. She was like "it's okay just smash it." But Anthony said their were 2 more ants. Meagan asked Anthony to show her where the other 2 Ants were and when he led her to their playroom this is what she saw!

These pictures do not do the disgudting factor enough justice! Every little tiny black speck you see is an ant! It was so gross! Meagan didn't know what to do so she: 1) took pictures; 2) made lots of phones calls to family for advice, 3) vacuumed up the ants and sprinkled cinnamon (apparently it deters ants), and 4) got help from her visiting teacher who brought her ant traps (Thank-you Keck family)! Thankfully the ants haven't returned...yet. We've been told they probably will :(

There is just something special about wearing mom's heel's and hearing them clank on the floor

Look at his little muscle definitions

Meagan wishes she had calves like that :)

Josie got permission from Michael to join him and his buddies on a road trip to AZ for a friend's wedding. We are so glad they came! Meagan got to spend a day with Josie while Michael and his friends were at the wedding. It was so much fun; Josie is a great shopping buddy!

JJ past the Anthony's hair test

JJ loves to work out and has muscular arms. While Anthony was rubbing JJ's hair, Anthony turned to JJ and asked: "Why are your arms so bumpy? My Daddy's arms aren't bumpy" :)

Adrian exercising his duck lips

Ready for the wedding! Put together Michael and his friends made one Patrick. Michael wore Patrick's shirt, Ryan wore Patrick's belt and pants; and JJ wore Patrick's shoes :)

Ariana is 4 months old!

Weight: 15lbs 6oz (75-90%)

Height: 25.5" (75-90)

Head Circum: 42.5 (75-90%)

Anthony is Ariana's favorite person. Every time she sees or hears his voice she smiles.
Hopefully they can stay buddies even when they are older.

Ariana's "sweet spot" is the bumbo so when Meagan sits Ariana in it she has to drape her clothes over the bumbo so if she poops her clothes stay clean. Meagan's method is effective, but looks ridiculous.
