Swim, Swim Like a Fish....



Look at Me!! 
I'm all ready to swim...

I've got my daddy, 

mommy, and sunhat.  Too bad I left my water loving side at home!  NO POOL for this girl anytime soon:)
 So, I've been told that I should rename my blog "New in Motherhood."  Touche', Graham.  You are probably right!  I would love to say that we are still a hip and cool couple that has exciting adventures at the drop of the hat, but the fact that I went to bed at 8:50 last night would totally negate my argument:)  Here is a list of what's New In Jersey besides Audrey:

1)  I had a lovely night out with these 2 gals (Lynette and Stephanie).  Yes, we are sitting on silky pillows with a canopy overhead.


2)  Joel went camping at Lake George with a friend from Boston.  I shared this bit of info with a friend and she stated, "that was nice of you to let him do that!"  I wasn't feeling to chipper about his absence at the moment and replied, "I know, wasn't it?"  So, much for being the laid back mom/wife that many think I am (I don't know WHY they think this??)

3)  I read "The Hiding Place"  by Corrie Ten Boom for a book club.  I was not at all thrilled about the  selection until I read it.  Wow.  It literally changed my life....I can't even begin to explain what an impact this author and her story had on me.  (Mom, I know you told me to read this book years ago....what can I say??)

4)  We've officially lived in NJ for 2 years.

5)  Audrey has at least tripled the amount of dishes I wash.  It's incredible.  How does such a little being add so many dishes to my pile??

Fourth Of July Picnic

Happy Fourth!

Momma dressed me up for the special occasion

Was that a firework I heard?

If it was......

ya better WATCH out...cuz daddy is SERIOUS about illegal fireworks

He likes it when both his girls sleep at night (and illegal fireworks aren't good for that)

So many fun activities on our picnic

Just give me a minute while I pull daddy's lips off

 Then I'll leave you with a video of me swinging.
