Having a backyard creek is the best!

This morning Lydia played in the creek. She LOVED it!

Summer playdates are the best

On Wednesday July 15th we were invited to our friends, the Kemicks, for lunch and an afternoon swim session. We had so much fun hanging out in the water with our friends. Thanks Amanda for thinking of us!

A new crib!

Lydia's first crib was recalled unfortunately. Which left up with no crib and in a hurry to get a new one. After a lot of research on Daddy's part a few trips to various stores, we found a beautiful crib! Lydia has been in it for a week now and really seems to like. So much so that she likes taking bites out of it! She never bit the old crib once, this one we had up for less than 24 hours and we noticed bit marks! Silly Lydia!

Lydia's Dedication

On July 5th, Lydia was dedicated to the Lord. It was an honor and a privilege to have my dad do the ceremony. Lydia is very loved and had many family members present to show their love and support! Thank you everyone for loving our little girl!

The girl of the house

Lydia is officially walking!! Here she is walking through the living room.

another new development...

Lydia is starting to do all kinds of things by herself. One of her very favorite things to do is feed herself. Even though it is messy, it is so sweet watching her try to do it herself. Our baby girl is growing up so quickly! The bottle is officially gone as well. It was slow going but she seems to be happy with her sippy cup now! Finally!

Playing in the sprinklers

Lydia was invited by some of her friends to go play in the town park sprinklers. Even though the others didn't like it very much, Lydia loved it and kept going back for more. She is such an adventurous child!!
