Hannah, Waylon & Colton playing in the pool

Today we had a playdate at my house with Hannah, Waylon, Willie, Ava and Dylan. We played inside a little bit and then went to the backyard to play in the water. Willie and Ava are about 4 weeks apart but already the same size (I think Willie is going to pass Ava up)! Dylan didn't make it into any of the pictures, he had to leave early for an appointment, maybe next time.

Happy 3rd Birthday Princess Riley!

Today was Princess Riley's birthday party. It was a Princess themed party with swimming, games and a pinata. It was my first pinata and as you can tell by the pictures, I wanted my Skittles and nothing else! I had a very hard time figuring the whole pinata thing out. It was a lot of fun though!

Bathtime Fun

I had my first co-ed bath! Who else would it be with but Hannah!!!

Babysitting Landon

Yesterday and today we babysat Landon. Here we had our snack after our nap, I got cheerios and Landon got puffs. Landon is still learning how to self feed!

Welcome Baby Willie!!!

Waylon is officially a big brother! William Thomas Stripling arrived July 4th about 9:30 p.m. He was 9 lbs 2 oz and 21.5 inches long. Congratulations Stripling family!!

Race Car Driver

Today Daddy had to go to Lowe's. We discovered that they have the coolest shopping carts for kids. I got to pretend that I was a race car driver!

Happy 4th of July

We started the 4th of July up in Weaverville. We went with Grammy and Papa and met up with Great Grandma Juanita, Cousin Tracy, Cousin Ryan, Jerry and Vonnie.

First we went to the annual bell ringing at the band stand. Great Grandpa Don did all the brick work at the band stand.

Mommy gave me a yummy homemade cookie from the ice cream social. I got to eat it while we watched the parade.

The fire truck was one of my favorites in the parade.

We came back to Redding and went to Grammy and Papa's for a bbq. Aunt Mary, Uncle Don, Bryan, Simmie and Donny showed up too.

Like my Alfalfa hair??

Simmie, Daddy and I played in the sand box.

BBQ with Hannah

Tonight we had Hannah and her family over for dinner. We serenaded them with the piano for a while and then after dinner we decided to take a dip in my pool.
