8 Months

8 Months!

 It has been another busy, fun, celebration-filled month! And this girl just keeps growing!

Jessica and Audrey were in town for Kinsley's birthday/ Father's day. We had fun going to the park, riding the train, going to the discovery center and playing together. My mom, sisters and I even got away for a girl's night while the guys took the little girls swimming. Callie LOVED the water! Thankfully my mom and sisters helped me finish some last minute projects and get the house in order for our first party at the new house. They party was good, but we definitely need some living room furniture.

Cousins on Father's Day!

Girl's night painting. So fun!!

Callie loves scooting herself around in the water

Kinsley's birthday and Father's day. We celebrated Kinsley's birthday a LOT more than Father's Day...poor Chris

Callie enjoyed her first Fourth of July! I worked the night before and the night of the fourth so we went to a friend's house in town for the evening. Callie loved playing with a glow stick and watching Kinsley do fireworks. She also got to take her first boat ride!

looking all cute and patriotic

On the boat!

Chris and I just got back from a 5 day vacation to the Riviera Maya in Mexico. It was an awesome time away and I already miss the beautiful weather but man did I miss those girls! Thankfully Callie didn't grow to much while we were gone. I was afraid she would start crawling or something crazy and I would miss it! She DID start driving...

She loves driving!

Miss it already

She thinks she can feed herself now
