Happy 4th of July!

Libby, Jason, Nancy, and Matthew
Libby enjoying her sucker that lasted the entire parade, and then some! Love the beads!

I was taking her picture and she just stood up and yelled as loud as she could and then laughed and did it again and again. It was really funny!



Today we when to the 4th of July parade here in Carmel. What a wonderful time we had! It was a little rainy but not enough to ruin our fun. It was the first parade that Libby has been to and I really enjoyed sharing that with her! Jason's late Grandpas wife, Nancy got to join us and it was perfect! She got to hold Matthew for the first time and visit with Jason and I sat on the curb with Libby. I did not get any pics until it was over but here are a few!

The Zoo





Wed we went to the zoo along with half of Indianapolis. It was packed! The weather was a bit

cool and wet so I guess everyone had the same idea we did. I did not get many pics but it was Matthews first trip to the zoo. Of course no surprise for those of you who know me well, I got NO pictures of him! Whoops! Better luck next time!

Big boy Matthew!





Matthew loves just about everything! He is such a happy baby. He loves it when anyone is talking to him, especially his sisters. He does not get to play on the floor a ton due to his overly loving sister, Libby, but when he does he just has a good old time! He does not roll over yet but he likes playing on both his tummy and his back. He has on a cute little cowboy outfit straight from Texas from his great Aunt HelenAnn. My little cowboy!

Glue and markers!








Libby got to play with glue and markers for the first time, and of course, LOVED it! I think that I have another craft girl on my hands. Alex LOVES to do crafts and I think that Libby is following her big sisters footsteps. We did have to have a lesson on glue not being lotion that goes on our legs, nor is it lipstick. It may look a bit like both of these things to Libby, however it is not!


Finishing up June!

Libby loves to color! She carries around her box of "coloring crayons and paper" and stops where ever I am to color. I just thought that this was to cute. She was laying on the floor coloring and I almost did not get the picture because I went to find the camera and she started to gather everything up and follow me!
At the sprinkle park with our friends, what a fun time!

Helping Mommy water the flowers, one of her favorite things to do, usually with daddy!

Playdough


This is the best you get when you ask her to say "cheese"

Don't ya just love the pony?


Yesterday, I made playdough for Libby. Blue just like she asked for. She had a lot of fun making food for Matthew. She would put it on the plate and tell me to feed it to him. I am sure it is only a matter of time before she decides to feed it to him, herself.



Fathers' Day







"Look I can do it standing on one foot!"


On Fathers' Day Libby got to spend several hours outside helping her daddy do yard work. She started out in her church dress and ended up in her diaper. She had tons of fun watering the flowers and herself! What a fun day with daddy!
