| I took the kids to my Mom's last week for a summer break, it was wonderful. Good mother daughter time and a good break with my babies. We went out one day to see Winter, the dolphin with no tail, it was amazing to see and learn so much at the Clearwater Aquarium. Anyone who has not seen the movie Dolphin Tale, watch it and then if you are ever near Clearwater, it is a must see. Other than that we just relaxed and soaked up every second. Bliss |

| We had a great day with Daddy yesterday! We went to the car show in Noblesville and then finished the day with Daddy's ice cream float cake! Happy Father's Day Daddy, we love you! |
 |
| Yesterday was our annual Indians baseball game with Grandpa and Grandma C., it was so much fun...thanks for a great day! |
 |
| Today we went to spend the day with Grandpa C. picking cherries! Yes, they are on a golf cart, it is today's fun transportation around the farm...it was tractors in my day. The girls just love riding around on it and it is convenient to haul your things on. Ray was not sure at all what we were doing, but he loved being there with PaPa. Oh and yes, Violet's bathing suit is backwards, the girls is determined to do things, "All by myself." Tonight I taught the girls how to remove the pits from cherries, tomorrow we will bake. |

| Here is our Ray! Ten months old and on the move crawling and discovering finger foods, he is happy as can be! |
 |
| Here is the newest member of our house...HANK! Hank is a Shih Poo, a mix of a Shih Tzu and Poodle. Right now Hank weighs less than two pounds and will grow to about 7 pounds. The kids are over the moon. Hank loves to snuggle, which is a good thing because Lucy and Violet love holding him. Ray is pretty excited, but not sure why one of Lucy's stuffed animals has come to life, LOL. Come visit Hank any time! p.s. Yes, we know we are crazy! |

| Grandma C. took Violet for a special day on the school bus. Violet was beaming with a big girl glow, she loved every minute. Grandma drove her to the junior high where Violet got to go through her lunch line and then she did a performance of ABC's on the stage, it was adorable. Thanks Grandma! |
 |
| Ray turned 9 months old yesterday! He is 20 pounds and has 4 teeth. He seems to be days away from crawling and I have a feeling he is going to be fast, so our routines are about to change with him on the move. He is still saying Da Da and his newest thing is waving bye bye. He still smiles about 99.8% of the time, he is so much fun! |
