Evie loves hamming it up at the grocery store, smiling at everybody
And she loves pulling up to stand at her toy keyboard
Cody and Ashlyn set up a whole water park in their backyard, the girls had fun cooling off in the pool
Plus there was a big trampoline out there too
They always find fun stuff to play with in Brad & Blake’s toy room
Evie’s eating more real food now, Nemo helped her with her dinner
And the big kids got to all eat together at their little table
Ollie and Brad got to go sleep at Nemo’s that night
They even matched with their dinosaur pajamas
Back at Cody & Ashlyn’s Evie was now free to play with all the toys
The next morning we all met up at Nemo’s for breakfast, a great end to the weekend!
Since Amy would be going on a trip soon the girls got to take a little trip with her to Ville Platte to see Gran & Popee
For Gran’s 70th birthday, it was finally time for her big trip to Costa Rica, a gift from her 3 sweet daughters.
They got to see the Arenal Volcano
And they went on a hanging bridges tour
Back in Louisiana the girls got to spend a lot of time with Honey and Grandpa. One day Honey and Nemo even took them to Java Mama
But the big project for the week was Grandpa building the girls a swingset
He has some experience with this, building Fort COJO (for Cody & John) in the early 1980’s
It took a few days (and was built during a week with several heat advisories and temperatures reaching almost 100 degrees), but it turned out fantastic!
Ollie wouldn’t come inside until after 8 pm when it got too dark outside, she couldn’t get enough
She even helped Grandpa install the steering wheel
That Friday Nemo and Ms. Patsy came by to pick up Honey and take her to Houston
That meant a weekend with just Daddy & Grandpa in charge of the girls, Friday night we went to TJ Ribs,
Then Saturday we went to Barcadia,
Then Sunday after Grandpa left it was just Daddy and the girls for a couple of days
Evie is starting to really enjoy getting real food,
On Monday’s trip to drop off Ollie at school all the boys in class gathered around to see the incoming new girl Evie
She’ll be starting school there at the beginning of August, and will have Ollie’s old teacher Ms. Alisha
We hope they get along going to the same school now
We’re sure they’ll love it, they always laugh so much playing together
A late month trip to Ville Platte, Ollie got to try out her new air mattress
A lot of progress on the kitchen remodel this month, a lot of beams are in and they started building the pantry and cabinets
And Evie is 8 months old now!
What great fun this month. So much going on! I think you two sisters are so very cute and growing so fast! I’m anxiously waiting to see what August brings.
