Take me out to the ball game!

Don't worry Dad, I'll drive. You got insurance, right?
Dancing to the music.

I've never seen Lia more serious about eating. I thought I would be sharing my hotdog with her but once she got a hold of it you couldn't pry that thing out of her hands!

Well, at least she ate an apple with the hotdog. Her dinner wasn't entirely unhealthy!!

She still had room for french fries!

We went to a baseball game over the holiday weekend. It was Lia's first game but it won't be the last. She had so much fun and was a hoot to watch. She ate the entire time!! She even bummed nachos and cracker jacks from the people sitting around us. And when it was time to clap and cheer she would look around frantically to find somewhere to put her food so she had both hands to clap. She danced to the music and just had a great time. Paul and I did too! We met my cousin Sara and her family there which was an awesome surprise. It was nice to catch up with you guys!

Then we had Paul's cousin Ethan and his girlfriend over for dinner on sunday. It was a nice, relaxing, FUN Memorial Day weekend. We hope you all had a good weekend and are enjoying the beginning of summer.

Happy Birthday Paul!

Happy Birthday, Honey! We love you, Daddy!

Paul, You are an amazing man and an incredible father. You fill our home with love, laughter, security, good food, and fun times. We hope you had a good birthday. Here's to the best year yet.

Planting the Garden

Part of my wonderful Mother's Day, Lia helped Paul and I plant our garden. She had such joy in playing in the dirt and 'helping'. She actually took her job of watering the plants very seriously and loved trying to drink from the hose. Of course, I was cringing the entire time because she was getting so dirty and trying to drink from a dirty hose! But I let her enjoy herself and in turn Paul and I received so much joy watching her experience such things. A little dirt won't kill anyone, right?! We hope all you Mama's out there had a wonderful Mother's Day too.
