It's a Girl!

We're so excited to welcome a little baby girl to our family sometime in October. Now it's time to find matching dresses for April and baby.

Peterson Visit

We all had a great time when my family came to visit- especially the kids. John and April love all the attention provided by their aunts and and uncles, and this mommy loves how worn out and well they always sleep when we get together.

Jason made their "hats" out of paper towels. Eventually they had little symbols on them. Jason had them mimic him doing a little Kung-Fu kicking. April REALLY got into it.

April loved wearing the goggles and would not let us take them off. We all just couldn't help laughing at how funny they shaped her face!The aftermath of the goggles.

April's First Haircut

April's bangs have been driving me crazy for a little while now. They've just been long and in her eyes- it would have absolutely driven my Grandma Carlston crazy! Thankfully Aunt Alli came for a visit and took care of it.

Before...
I played peek-a-boo with April to keep her looking down.

4th of July

Here are a few pictures from out 4th of July celebration. We stayed home and kept it low key, with just a couple of friends coming over to light off fireworks with us.

John loved the sparklers...

April did not.The tree on the next street over caught fire. That's 3 fires for the last 2 Independence Days. Stinkin' illegal fireworks! You think people would figure it out.
After every firework John would clap and shout, "YEA!" He was possibly more fun to watch than the fireworks themselves.
