Water fun and a Cousin!!!

Lily and Johnny are absolutely loving the pool from Auntie A.  We spend almost all of our free time in it!

The scary monster princess and Johnny (who is screaming to point out Daddy or a flower...I can't remember)

Lily had some of her school friends over to play and they had a blast.  The slip and slide was a hit and the girls had a blast in the pool.

And Aunt Briana had a baby!  She and Tony welcomed a little girl, Pia, into the world on July 21st.  She was as perfect as perfect could be.  Lily and Johnny can't wait to meet their new cousin!

Summertime!

It's been a great few weeks!  Aunt Krissy came to visit, Lily had Disney week at school and got to wear her Tinkerbell costume all day - which turned into all night out to dinner!-, Johnny walked!!!, Lily loves soccer and we had a fun afternoon visit from Ba, Pops, Jack and Aunt Kait in the pool and on the new slip and slide they brought.

Showing off her bouncing skills!

Silly jumps....

Swinging on the neighbors swing set. 

Who says Princesses and Fairies can't climb walls? The kids had fun at the park Thursday evening.  

Spinning! 

Johnny wanted a turn...a bit slower though. 

He preferred playing with the mulch. 

On Friday, Mom took the kids to the Tot Lot in Media for the afternoon so Johnny could play. 

He and Lily had a tea party with new friends. 

Lily had fun showing Johnny how to play on the equipment.

She loved being so tall!  

I caught Johnny wrapping up his tea party while Lily pushed another baby on the tire swing. 

Johnny loved crawling in and out of the tubes, head first. 

Making music! 

Big girl in the baby tire swing. 

Best big sister! 

Then we found a super fun ice cream shop in town, near the park . It has a whole kids room with a giant chalk board! 

Soccer girl! 

Coming in for a quick water break. 

Shooting! 

"Big Brother" Jack! 

Silly faces!

Big boy! 

Slip and slide fun with Dad!

Such a great time! 

Sliding away! 

Baby J loves his pool.

Lily danced the afternoon away outside.

Silly Lily! 

Johnny thought Lily was hysterical! 

So silly!!!

Happy 4th of July!

It's been a busy few weeks - a lot of playing outside in the pool and fun with family.  Lily is really enjoying swimming at the house.  Every day she gets more and more brave and now swims with her head in the water.  Yeah!!!

Pool fun with Lily's best bud, Mathilde! 

At the Zoo with Grammy! 

A trip up to Ba & Pops' for his birthday (again!) 

We spent 4th of July near the house, attending awesome fireworks.  Johnny LOVED them.  His "oohhs" and "aahhs" mimicking Lily's will be ingrained in our memories forever.  Happy birthday, America!
