Splish Splash!

Hot summer days are perfect for the neighborhood Splash Park! Bella and Daddy had so much fun running through the water. It is the perfect way to cool off!


And what could be better after splashing around in the heat than an ice cream cone?

Yummy!

Sharing is Caring

Sometimes Chinese food is better when you share it with a friend! Bella and her friend Edie just loved the sweet and sour sauce and crispy noodles and were so good at sharing!

School is IN for summer!

Bella started Preschool this week! She is such a big girl! She goes to school every day and is loving it! She has 2 sweet teachers - Ms. Evelyn and Ms. Marina - who are great. Here are some pictures from Day 1.

All dressed up for school!

Seriously Mom...can you stop taking pictures? You are embarrassing me in front of my new friends.

More later!

Go Cubs Go!

This past weekend, Zayde came to town to visit. The highlight of the weekend was a trip the the Ballpark in Arlington for the Cubs vs. Rangers game. Zayde was so excited to be able to take Bella to her first Cubs game.

It was a really fun game, full of lots of yummy ballpark food (Bella liked to dip her pb&j into the nacho cheese), friends (we ran into our friends Trish & Grayson!) and best of all...a victory for the Cubs!!

Go Cubs Go!!! Here are some pictures from the day:

Picture Perfect

Bella had a great photo shoot with Mindi Sue in March for her 18 month pictures. We planned on having them taken outside, but Mother Nature had other ideas. That was the day that we had snow! For our backup plan, Mindi Sue took the pictures at our home and they turned out great.

Here are a few of our favorites:

18 months already??

Bella turned 18 months last week and had her doctor appointment today. She weighed in at 21.5 pounds (in the 10th percentile) and is 31 inches tall (25th percentile). She is on the small side, but Dr. D said she is looking great.

She was a total trooper with her iron test and vaccinations. There were a few tears, but a Dora sticker cheered her up quickly.

Last month, Bella had her 18 month pictures taken by Mindi Sue. They came out great as usual. Check them out at http://mindisuephotos.com/. Scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page and click on the box labeled Bella-18 months. The password is patsy2. Let us know what you think!

Smile for the camera!

Bella has become such a fan of the camera. Every time a camera is pointed at her, she poses, smiles and says cheese! Here are a few of our favorite shots.
