Monkey bears.

I received an email today from Kodakgallery.com saying they were erasing my account if I didn't purchase my pictures. Now I don't know about some of you, but I have Isabella's entire life on these websites (snapfish, shutterfly, costco.com, etc.) I freaked out and started ordering.

(Warning: Do it fast b/c I've hear flicker.com is the same way as well.)

This discovery brings me to this post. I found these two photos, my favorites in that month. (If you're a mom you will understand this. We take/group pictures by the month until they hit about 3 years. They change a lot, really fast!)

Note to Megan Hansen and Alix Allocco: It goes REALLY REALLY REALLY fast! Enjoy every moment. Take lots of pictures. Sleep when the baby sleeps (just kidding, one lesson at a time!)

4th of July

A very patriotic four-some, if I do say so myself!

We started the day with a parade in "downtown" Clayton. I'm pretty sure all of Clayton's 10,000 residents were there. Little kids had their bikes, trikes, powerwheels, and scooters decorated and rode in the parade. There were also firemen, police, boy scouts, the mayor and some councilman, and the Blue Star Mom's in fancy old cars. Isabella loved the parade but McRae had a little injury that prevented him from enjoying the festivities...

There were some jumpies set up in the back to keep the little ones entertained (parade was a little long). McRae's hand got stuck under his bum while he slid down the slide and it burned him. So we walked to longs, picked up some neosporin and band-aids and went home.

After he was all bandaged up, we went swimming at Mimi and Pa's house (Devin's parents) and now I think I have swimmers ear. Isabella went to a party at her Dad's house and Devin and I went to Tj and Shanes house and enjoyed an adult celebration for Independence Day.

I will not be posting pictures of that night...

Hope everyone had a fun, safe holiday!
