Happy Father's Day to all those amazing daddy's out there! 
<
And to the most wonderful, unbelievable Daddy of all...my very own hubby, Josh...we love you more than you'll ever know and hope you had a fantastic day! 
Check out their stickers! (click on pic to enlarge it)
And here is a video that Josh and I never tire of watching:
Yes it is hot, hot, hot here in KY! And we have been having lots of fun this summer despite the illnesses that we have been dealing with. Poor Ty has now had 3 ear infections in a month. If we can't get them under control the next step is tubes. We don't want the poor, little guy to end up with tubes, so please pray for him! This is really the first week he seems to be back to his old self since the end of May, and we hope he stays healthy for a while! We have also definitely hit a rough patch of "terrible twos" with Ty. Man does he know how to throw a tantrum when he doesn't get what he wants! Poor kid has a bad combo of mommy's stubbornness and daddy's temper. He has been a trying little dude lately, and we will be happy when this rotten stage is over!
Caellum is doing great, and growing faster by the minute. He is eating solids really good now, and we're having fun introducing him to new fruits and veggies. He is such a happy baby, and just loves to be talked to and tickled! Now if only we could get him to nap well! He sleeps great at night, but just doesn't sleep well during the day (unless he's being held that is!).
Josh is doing good, and his unit is gearing up for NTC in August. That means lots of field time and ranges. We are trying to enjoy every minute we have with him before he leaves for NTC in late July.
I am doing good too. I am healing up from a little bout of a sore throat, and loss of my voice, and have been enjoying taking the boys outside for some playground/water time since it has been so hot and humid here!
Here are some recent pics:

Mommy and Daddy's superheros!
Oh, and on a side note, Happy B-day (yesterday), Bubby! Hope it was a great one! :-)
So, so sorry that we haven't updated in a while...it has been a crazy couple of weeks! I am finally posting thanks to Robin's encouragement (thanks for thinking about us, Robin!). So, for those of you that don't know, Josh is home. We have had such mixed emotions about him being home. Of course we are ecstatically happy to have him home, but we hate to see how disappointed he is about not making it through Ranger School this time. He has absolutely no reason to be disappointed in himself because he actually did fantastic down there! It was his body that failed him. He actually got "medically dropped" for a heat injury. Basically his body over-heated, and his entire body cramped up on him. Once they got his core temperature down, he thought maybe they would send him back to his class since he had passed everything during the first week, but since he was a heat-related injury, they wouldn't let him join back in and risk it happening again, as it will only get hotter down in the GA sun. They gave him a "golden ticket" so he can go back to any class he wants, the only restriction being he has to wait until the winter months (October-April). So now we're not sure if Josh will get to go back and try again or not, since his brigade is set to deploy in the November-January time frame. Since he has to wait until October, that would mean an added 2 months to an already 12-month-long deployment, and we don't want to make that separation time any longer than it already is....so, we'll see! We prayed the Lord's Will be done, and we know that we don't always understand His perfect plan for us, but this obviously happened for a reason! We just trust in Him, and know that this was part of His plan for us.
