July 2009

We've been pretty busy lately. We had a trip to Florida at the end of June for our niece's Baptism. Lots of fun! We've been home keeping busy with the baby, the house and getting rest. We had fun on Adam's birthday playing in Elie's new baby pool... and getting eaten up by mosquitos. Anne & Bob came for a visit and I made my first challah ever with them - was very messy with lots of laughs! Someday I will attempt again. Now we are getting ready to go on a week long vacation to the outer banks! Aunt Rachel is coming with us to make it even more fun... and give us an extra pair of hands with the baby so Adam and I can do things like go swimming at the same time. And in the past week, Elie has learned to crawl "commando" style, sit up by herself from laying down on the floor, and wave! It was quite a week of learning and we are looking forward to watching her learn to do even more! Here are some fun photos from the month...
