Another Play Date

Today we had a play date with mommies teacher friends. Alivia's friends are Hudson, Henry, Brielle, Mason and Ava. What a fun day we had and Alivia was worn out from watching all the big kids play. She went right home and crashed in her bed. She can't wait to play like the big kids! :)

Play Date with Claire

Today was our last week day play date with Claire before both mommies have to go back to work and teach. We had a lot of fun today but we definitley missed Makena. We can't wait to have Saturday and Sunday play dates soon so all the girls can play together. We are excited for baby Aven to join us too!! The girls are growing up so...fast and we are enjoying every minute of it! :)

Alivia being a bully....I hope not!!

We LOVE our tummy!

Heather's Wedding

I was the matron of honor in my friend Heather's wedding this past weekend. Alivia got to come to the church with daddy and was such a good girl during the ceremony. She went to the reception with Grandma and Grandpa Stewart and then spent the night at their house while mommy and daddy had fun at the reception. We had a great time at the wedding and it was so...beautiful. Congrats Heather and JR!!! :)

Play Date

Today we had a play date with Ellie, Alex, Matthew and Morgan. Ellie is 16 weeks, Alex is 3 years old, Matthew is 17 weeks, Morgan is 14 Months and Alivia is now 24 weeks. We had a lot of fun with all the kids today. Taking the pictures was pretty funny because all of them kept doing funny things. Alivia loved playing with all the kids and scooting all over the place. She also LOVED playing with Alex. Alex was too cute. He would stack up Alivia's blocks for her and she would crawl and knock them over and then Alex would stack them back up for her again. It was too cute!

Yeh...we got one where they were all looking at the camera!

Ava's 2nd Birthday Party

Today we went to Ava's 2nd birthday party and Alivia wore her first bow headband. Mommy has been looking everywhere for some cute bows and she is still looking!! Daddy hates bows but we thought this was a special occasion today. :) Ava is mommy's friend, Allison's little girl. Alivia loved hanging out with Ava because this was the first time they have played together this summer. We can't wait to have a pool day with them soon. Ava is such a big girl now and loves babies. Ava and Alivia will be going to the same babysitter this year so I am sure they will become best buddies and Ava will teach Alivia everything since Ava is so...smart. :) The other little girl in the picture is my friend Libby's little girl. Karsen will be 6 in September and will be starting Kindergarten this year. WOW....they grow up so...fast!

Ava says, "Play with me!"

Alivia says, "Happy Birthday Ava!!"

Big Girl Stroller Walk

Alivia and I go on a walk every morning and today I decided to see if Alivia would like riding forward without her car seat. Usually her carrier is inside the stroller and she is facing me. I didn't know how she would do with the sun on her a little bit but she loved it. I kept moving the shade down when the sun came in because she didn't like the sun in her face but other than that she LOVED looking around at everything. Our little girl is growing up!! Only 3 more weeks of walking in the morning before Mommy has to go back to work. She will start at the babysitter on August 10th. :(

"Mom, why am I not in my car seat?"

"I'm a big girl!! I love this!! Now I can see everything!"

Baby Aven

Last week Alivia met with Makena and Claire to meet their new friend Aven. Aven is Matt and Sarah Osbornes little girl. We are so...happy for them! The girls can't wait to grow up together and be best friends. The last picture is a picture from Makena, Claire and Alivia's last play date with Makena before her mommy went back to work. Don't worry, we are going to start planning Saturday play dates since we will all be back at work soon!! This time next year they will all be running around so taking pictures I am sure will be a challenge. Can't wait for that!

Aven- 1 day old, Makena- 12 weeks, Claire- 11 weeks, Alivia- 22 weeks

We LOVE each other!
