One Month Old

I can not believe it's already been a month since Isabella was born.  She has stolen our hearts (and our sleep!)  Our tiny thing is growing like a weed and (barely) finally out of newborn diapers.  Olivia has been adjusting so well to having a little sister and Dadun has nicknamed Isabella "Big Mouth" which I'm certain he means in the most endearing way.  :)

Welcome Home, Isabella!

Olivia, Nonna, Aunt Catherine, and her boys were ready to welcome Isabella home from the hospital (a day early because Momma just HAD to get out of there!).

Isabella Kate!

Isabella Kate was welcomed into this world on Wednesday, June 24th at 9:08am weighing 6 lbs 13 oz and measuring 20 inches long.  Here are a few pictures of her first few days in the hospital.

Swim, Swim, Swim

Olivia has been working very hard since February each week at her swim lessons with Miss Sue.  She is quite the little swimmer now.  Aquatic Adventures have been AMAZING with her!

BFFs

Since the weather has turned warm Olivia and Grant have been having SO much fun outside together.  They have been swimming, enjoyed some sprinkler fun, snacked on s'mores and ice cream cones, played in the water table, and attempted to slip and slide.  It sure has been FUN!

Isabella's Sprinkle

Miss Stephanie and Miss Kari hosted a BEAUTIFUL little sprinkle for Isabella.  A few close friends came and had a lovely time together!  Isabella is one blessed little girl!

Container Garden

Olivia and I wanted to try something new this summer so we decided we would start a container garden.  We found a cool "Patio Picker" at Lowe's to begin our adventure.  We have planted a tomato plant, oregano, basil, lavender, carrots, and squash.  Olivia loves to water it every day and check the progress on each plant's growth.

The beginning

As of June 2nd

New Bike!

The Easter Bunny brought Olivia an "Ariel bike"! She has been working SO hard to learn to ride it!

Kiawah with Grant and Reid

Olivia spent a long weekend on Kiawah Island with her BFF, Grant.  They had such a great weekend that involved beach time, aquarium with fish and MERMAIDS, and lots of play time!

Mermaids??????????  Awe.
