Standing

James is getting pretty good at standing up on his own--check it out!

Frankie's 1st Birthday

Our nephew Frankie turned 1 on July 18th! Here are our favorite shots from his fun birthday bash.


Just digging in...


...and the finale. I think he had a good time!

A day on the boat

We enjoyed a day of boat rides and picnic fun at West Branch State Park last Saturday. What a fun day! Abby enjoyed her time on the boat, but James was not a big fan of the wind or the life jacket squeezing his big cheeks together :) Maybe he'll fare better next time.

Sharing

Bothered by James' lack of clothing yesterday morning, Abby decided to share her shirt. What a nice big sister. (Lucky for us, the camera was close by.)

Yay for Independence Day!

Here are pics of the first ever Village Drive 4th of July Bike Parade. Fun Stuff. Abby was quite excited to decorate her bike, but not so excited to ride it (Mom had to push her the entire 1/2 mile)!

The leaders of the pack
