Happy 4th!
I love having my sister back from school and living with us!
My American Sweetie!
My kids and I all got Hand, Foot and Mouth disease this month. Those things itch! I remember getting this one summer at Bear Lake when I was like 11 too.
I love having a mother who likes to have some serious fun.
Grandpa D is pretty darn good with the kids. They love him.
Cpc is really happy about getting to play the violin these days.
Arc loves the boat.
We love America.
And ice cream.
Pmc loves his motorcycle, Montgomery - or Monty for short, to rhyme with Ponti our car!
Arc is figuring out how to walk - she's not too sure about it. But Momsey is working on it with her with a jumprope. Can you see that umbilical hernia sticking out of Arc's belly button?
This is how we ALWAYS see Cpc and Cdc in the car.
Arc's ice cream cupcakes for her first birthday!
Even though they sort of melted they were clearly delicious!
Arc was thrilled to get her very own baby for her birthday.
Cousin time, so glad Aunt Bmem and her family could make it!
Sweet Grandma Ruthie.
Aunt Cse got hitched!
So glad Aunt Cse's wedding provided cause for a little family reunion at the lake!
Cpc's love of the game of Chess has begun.
He is determined to convince Cdc to love it too.
Nothing better than a sleeping baby in a lifejacket on the boat.
Pmc prefers the wakeboard at the lake for sure.
I don't remember much from July honestly (it was over a year ago)! But there are a few things I want to record. My siblings and mom and I all got a hotel in Park City for one night to have a little time together, that was a blast. We went shopping, hung out in the pool. All the girls tried TOGETHER to dunk Hdhe, and if I recall correctly, we managed to get him under eventually - although I think he claimed he let us. He's strong. I think it was just shortly after Arc's birthday that my mom pulled out a jump-rope and was determined to get Arc to walk by having her hold onto the rope. I think she managed to figure it out before the end of the month. But I don't have video to prove it. Dang. Arc was a little skeptical of really getting the walking thing, but the rope really did help.
