Summer Fun

Hi everyone!! Hope you're all enjoying your summer! We sure are! We've been quite busy, to say the least! Carly was hospitalized when she was 2 weeks old for a fever and we found out she had a urinary tract infection! It was very scary, but she is doing very well now and gaining weight like a little piglet!! And there was another addition to our family, Jayda, she was born 2 weeks after Carly, so we know they will be the best of friends! I'm now an aunt and so proud!!! Josie is busy swimming at the pool and playing outside every chance she gets! We made it to Sturgis Falls Celebration last weekend and that was a blast! Josie got her face painted and loved it, which I'm glad because the line took over an hour!!! She also rode some fun rides with Mom and Dad. Carly is approaching 7 weeks old and I can't believe how the time is flying!! She is already rolling over and smiling and cooing like crazy!! There is never a dull moment in our household!

We had a photo shoot at home! Carly is 2 weeks old here.

My new niece, Jayda! She's adorable!


Poor Carly in the hospital...I had to take a picture :(

Chelsea's holding Carly and I'm holding Jayda. Josie's so proud to be smack dab in the middle!

I had to take a picture of Carly with the adorable bonnet on!

We were getting her to smile so big, she almost laughed!

Josie's taking a break from swimming, a very short break!

Swimming and having fun in our back yard. She loves pretending she's Ariel and I'm Eric...thanks!

Josie the butterfly

It was amazing how still she sat while getting her face painted. She didn't flinch, she's even sitting on her hands!!

Riding the merry-g0-round with Nana

Riding the race cars with Dad-that ride was her favorite!

Riding the big slide with Mom. She looks petrified, I was pretty scared, too!
