Summer

We've had a great summer and can't believe it's almost time for little sister to arrive (well still 6 more weeks, but who is counting?). We've gone to the coast with Grandma and Grandpa, enjoyed many BBQs, outside concerts, and Addie also loved Enchanted Forest!

Mothers Day and It's a ...............

We had a great Mothers Day! Thanks to my wonderful husband for a decaf mocha first thing in the morning and a chocolate croissant! Later we celebrated with Grandma Judie and Grandpa Rolland, the weather was perfect and Addie had a blast with her water table. It was so nice to relax outside and enjoy the weather and company.

Here's a picture of me (and Addie), me at 20 weeks, and it's a GIRL!!! So excited Addie will have a sister and she loved seeing pictures of the baby. We are 99% sure of her name and so excited to start getting ready for her arrival in Sept. We have a big week at our house this week, so keep your fingers crossed for us :)

Cannon Beach- Anniversary Trip

Yep that's right, we've been married 9 YEARS!! Where has the time gone?? We usually take a trip for the Anniversary, even if it's such to Cannon Beach. Addie loves the beach and water! She had a blast so of course we did, check out her flying a kite. Who knew a 3 year old could do it on her own, she was so funny!!! We also had wild bunnies outside our room, which kept her busy trying to catch them and of course there was the pool. Overall a great weekend!!

A few pictures

We have a cute little spot in our neighborhood with beautiful flowers we take pictures at every year; this year the owners trimmed their tree so there weren't as many flowers and it was filled with tree trimmings, but we got a few pics. Funny she remembers going there last year and what she wore :)
