The Many Adventures of Evan and Abbie: July 2010

Round Up Weekend in Mason

Amy's dad drives his truck in the parade every year and the kids get to ride in the back. This year he drove one of the girls that was nominated for Round Up Queen. Oh, and the truck won 1st place - we're not sure what category, but it won! The kids always have such a great time.

I love that porch...

(Amy's brother and his family had some wonderful friends in town visiting so they did not get to join us this year).

Walking!

Abbie's been taking steps and loving to practice. She would stand up, get her balance and start to walk. You could see the determination in her eyes and her excitement each time. This video is from July 4th, I'm a little behind, but she's really taken off now.

Evan and Abbie Fun

These two really enjoy being around each other

Playing in "The Fort"

They can both often be found in The Fort where they have taken their toys and play. They are so much fun!

Uh Oh

We have a climber...

This is where I found her when I walked into the room.

The Pool

We joined our neighborhood pool this summer and have had a lots of fun swimming most days. We have two little fish on our hands with the littlest one being the most adventurous.
