Perfect Picture?

This was the picture I wanted and finally got it after bribing her with M &M's.

                         Here are just a few of the first ones I attempted to take. These are actually     better than what I usually get with big eyes or a crazy smile. :)

New Pool

Our pool from last year got a hole in it so we needed to get a new one. Cameryn was really upset about her elephant pool but quickly forgot once I brought this one home. Her and Avery both have a blast in it. Avery is definitely a water baby and has no fear.

11 months old!

Hard to believe that Miss. Avery turned 11 months old last week. Where has the past year gone? She is learning so much and very close to walking. She likes to sign for "more" and "eat", clap her hands, squeal, and shake her head "no". She has a very strong personality but is hesitant to try new things! She also LOVES her big sister and of course wants to do everything Cameryn does.

Kings Island Fun

We went down to visit Lindsey and Steve on Sunday and also met up with my parents. We celebrated Steve's birthday, went swimming, and also took a day trip to Kings Island. It was the first time I had been there since I was probably 13 or 14. It was very warm but luckily the rain held off. We spent most of the morning and early afternoon at Camp Snoopy following Cameryn around. She loved all of the rides and was excited to meet all of the Peanuts characters. Avery got to join in on the carousel ride and also liked the characters. I was shocked! :) After Camp Snoopy, we headed over to the waterpark. Cameryn went down several water slides and screamed at the top of her lungs. She had a blast! Avery slept most of the time in the stroller but enjoyed lounging in the water when she woke up. The trip went way better than I expected and we had a great time!

Birthday Party Roundup!

We headed up to Michigan on Saturday for a friend's first birthday. They had a petting zoo with llamas, rabbits, ducks, chickens, cows, and goats as well as pony rides. The kids had a blast interacting with all of the animals. Cameryn also got her face painted and a balloon animal which quickly popped. We had a great time visiting with friends and helping celebrate!
