More Summer Fun!

We took BART to the airport (always an adventure) to head down to So Cal for more Summer fun. 

 Brandon got to hang out with his favorite people on the planet, his cousins! 

These girls sure do love each other. Aunt Angie is the magic Brighty charmer. She can put her to sleep anywhere. Even in El Pollo Loco!

We had s'mores by the pool one evening. Thanks Wendy!! 

Sweet Mr. Spot. Brighty and Bran love this little cutie.

Brighty learned to walk on this trip...and poor daddy missed it. :( Luckily we got it on video and sent it to him asap.

Such fun, lazy mornings at Angie's house.

We walked with Grandpa and Mary and cousins to get lunch. Very hot but very fun!

Brighty loves "Uncle Peek Boo." ;) Parker is super cute with her. 

The kids got to "swim" at Grandpa's house. He has such great inventions!  

I was SO happy I got to be there for Lily's first day of first grade! I was there at her first day of kinder last year! LOVE that little sweetie. 

Summer!

This Summer Brandon has started taking Tae Kwon Do and he loves it! 

Brighty just can't get enough of Brandon's homemade popsicles. Her poor little lips and fingers get so red from the cold, but that doesn't stop her!

We were SO lucky to have Aunt Angie and cousin Lily come to visit us for a week! Smoothies in fancy glasses is always fun. :)

Lily requested that we play the flour game and the water game! Two family favorites!

She was such a good sport even with her face full of flour! :)

While Aunt Angie was here she taught Brighty how to bathe in the BIG tub! No more sink for her!

Crazy kiddos playing in the crib!

We had chocolate fondue one of the nights Lily was here...so fun and yummy. 

Summer is almost over and we cannot believe it! Our time with family has been so special. Thank you Angie and Lily for coming to stay with us! We love you!! Now come back! :)

10 months!

It's crazy but true...our little stinker is ten months old. She is so funny, loud, curious, unafraid, persistent, social, smart and beautiful. We love how she can wave. She waves at everyone and everything. She is crawling SO fast these days and loves to make her way into the bathroom to unroll all the toilet paper. She loves exploring in Brandon's room and loves tasting his Pokemon cards. :) She gives the best slobbery kisses. She is wearing 9-12 month clothes and she weighed 17.7 lbs about a week ago. She is still little, but she is healthy. :) We are so so blessed. 

Happy Happy 10 Months!

Okay so she did NOT like the festive boa I wrapped around her. Maybe because it's super itchy. 

Mean mommy! ;)

This mad face had nothing to do with the boa...

 Oh there is a happy smile! Thanks Brighty!

Happy 10 Months sweet girl!

4th of July!

It's always so fun to celebrate John's 4th of July birthday! We headed to So Cal for the big day. 

 John's family came to the beach to help us celebrate. :)

The brother-in-laws. 

We sure do love our little firecracker baby!

We got to spend lots of time with this little beach babe!

Brighty loved the sand. She crawled all over and even ate it twice! 

 We went to the Proctor's for some more family time. 

Cutie Breanna and Brighty having a GREAT time in the pool!

Brandon and Donovan (and a bunch of other cousins) had a ton of fun on the giant water slide!

Daddy loves his girl. 

It was a great little vacation full of family and fun. Brandon even stayed for a few extra days so he could have his extra cousin time!
