This little girl just continues to fill our lives with joy. She seems to be learning something new every day, adding to her vocabulary, and keeping us on our toes (literally). Her favorite words right now are up, nonono (with a scolding finger), bird, Elmo, bottle, blueberries, paci, water, walk, outside and flag. Mind you, none of these sound quite like the actual words. For example “flag” its actually “alickylickylicky” – no idea why. Paci is “Pssss”. And “bird” is “Bbbbba”. What matters is that we know what she’s saying. She’s also doing a great job with her sign language. She’s becoming a very polite little lady with her “pleases” and “thank yous”.
Her personality abounds. Here are some peaks into her latest favorites.

Graham crackers and fishy faces

Building Lego towers

Hanging with her cousin Camryn

Playing dress up

Doing it on her own

Swim lessons and play time with her best friend Bailey

After bath time robe, sippy cup and Elmo

Playing piano

Snuggling with Henrietta and Dotti

Playing catch-and-kick with her big pink ball

We participated in an End of School Bash this weekend. The first of many events this summer in what our church, Rock Harbor, is calling South County Project. Weekly events, celebration services, prayer, and mentoring forums to come alongside neighborhoods in South County in need of God, community and fellowship. Eric and I are super excited for this opportunity to be a part of a sub-church in our area that is actively pursuing spreading the word of God – not in another city, state or country, but rather right where we are!
Eric and I got to help out at the “Bash”, among loads of other red shirted volunteers. I got to make sno-cones and Eric manned the Princess bounce house. They had tons of games: water balloon toss, steal the bacon, red rover. They had a golf cart maze that the kids got to drive, face painting, balloon creations, tons of bouncy contraptions, free chick-fil-a for everyone, sno-cones, popcorn, cotton candy…it was a huge hit for kids and adults alike.


There are going to be lots of events throughout the summer. Come join us! Details below, or go to the church website for info.
