There's the boating adventure with the Kurtz's, 1 year birthday (and party), walking 1 week after Rose turned 1, unexpected death and trip to FL, Memorial Day, 4th of July, several friends birthday parties and lots of play dates! There are lots of other events I'm sure I'm missing but I think you get the point...we've been super busy! Blake is finishing up school and is enjoying his time at home with Rose. Rose is more and more independent everyday and her personality is really shining through. My prediction is that she is going to be just.like.me...lord help me! This past year has been wonderful. Parenting is definitely easier now than it was a year ago, Rose is a joy to be around and we are enjoying every minute of it! Our vacation is coming up in August - can't wait!
Here are some pics and videos of the past month and a half.
Pictures from Rose's first boat outing with the Kurtz family on Center Hill. What a neat and fun experience! Both Rose and Julian got in the water (and loved it), played on the boat and napped in the cabin. Can't wait until we can get a boat...one day!
Here are some pics from Rose's 1 year photo shoot at Blake's brother's house (courtesy of his brother; thanks Chris!)...
Spaghetti monster
First bike ride with Daddy. At first, she wasn't too sure of the hat but through the course of the ride, she figured out how to hold it back. She also figured out how to kick Daddy in the butt the whole ride - haha!
Rose when she started walking. She was very top heavy but she's figured it out now!
Rose is no procrastinator. She is already practicing for middle and high school! Look at this example; the form, the believability, the overly dramatic face and expression; we are currently working on putting her wrist on her forehead like a true damsel in distress - yes, that's right, she's on her way to being in a real drama class. Boy, are we in trouble!?!
The one 4th of July shot I really got that was any good...
Playtime with buds
Hope y'all have a wonderful rest of the summer!
