preschool time for ellie ann!

How can our baby be going to preschool?  She is now at St. Anthony's and loving every minute of it.  I was a bit nervous at first because she has really only stayed with Mamaw and Papaw and Lisa during the day and she is quite attached to all three of them.  I was wondering if she would be able to make it without crying, being homesick, or just not liking it.  I am very thankful that none of those things have happened, and she is just super in love with school.  Here are a few pictures of her first day!

So cute!

Her big girl backpack!  A cupcake :)

summer lovin'

Summertime in Southern Indiana is about six weeks.  Since Mommy has to go back to work July 24th(ugh), there wasn't a lot of time to soak up summer activities.  We definitely made the most of it though, with a few zoo trips, some trips to different pools, and just playing together.  I love summer because of the relaxed feeling that comes along with it.  Not a lot of places to be, no real schedules taking place.  Just fun time.  Ellie was at a great age this year (no diapers, no special food, etc.) and was extremely portable.  We could just pick up and go, which I really enjoyed.  Here are a few moments of our summer of fun.

The new New Albany pool rocks!

Love our zoo days!

Oh, Eliot.  She has been putting socks on her hands a lot lately. Love that crazy girl.

Girls playing in their Bestie tanks :)

Ellie loved the Fourth of July and all of the fireworks!

We saw Minions for Amie's birthday!

My Paigey got married this summer, too!

What a beautiful bride!



The girls got to hang out at Grandma's new pool!
