Family Reunion

We had a fun time at the annual Peterson Family Reunion. It is held on my Grandpa's farm every year. Julia was very scared of the Tractor & started shaking every time it came close...maybe next year she will ride on it unless she turns out to be tractorphobic. Also, I am not sure the next time she will step close to the pond...you can see below she got a little close & fell in (the very shallow part).

Wedding Party

My Mom & Aunts threw an after wedding party for all the Illinois folks that didn't go to my cousin Carrie's Wedding in CA. We had lots of fun & the girls stayed up way past bedtimes. It was a great party with DIY Gyros & Karaoke...I only wish I had gotten more pictures. It is so hard to watch babies & take pictures @ the same time! Julia had fun playing with CJ & Gibson.

6 weeks

Movie Night

I am sorry if I am getting repetitive w/pictures...I am just getting really panicky that I am going to miss even one moment. They are growing way too fast!!!

Tonight, for a treat, I let Julia watch her favorite movie, Cars. She sat in that exact position on the couch for the entire movie (116 minutes) & when it was over she said..."more cars?".

Besame Mucho

Sister Love

These 2 crack me up. I am procrastinating on laundry today...can't you tell?? Taking pictures is way more fun!

Happy 4th!

We had such a fun 4th of July @ my parents beach house with my parents, brother, & aunt & uncle. Julia wouldn't set foot in the sand so she was attached to her poppy. She did, however, have a ton of fun washing off rocks & throwing them into the lake!

Pool

We finally got Julia a pool today. She loved it!

1 month

June was a whirlwind for me!! I can't believe Phoebe is already a month old...wow. She is growing & developing really well, so, what else could I ask for?? At night she is on a pretty manageable schedule for me sleeping from 10-2 then she gets up again @ 5 and then somewhere between 7 & 8. The good thing is that she is very easy to get back to sleep...thank goodness! I think Julia is finally realizing that she is here to stay & is very good & sweet with her...she is always touching her head & telling her it's okay Phoebe, it's okay!

Gibson

Cousin Gibson came to visit! They had lots of fun playing together!

Jumper

This kid loves to jump!

A sense of accomplishment after the big jump!
