Camp Daddy!

Now that I am back to work full time, Blair has begun "Camp Daddy"! We are so lucky that is job gives us the freedom to do that. On Monday, however, this was the scene- too funny! The one good thing that came out of the chaos... THE MISSING SHOE!!!
That shoe has been the death of me! I have torn the house apart! There it sat, on the floor, under the drawer! Next time I am looking for something I will remember to look in and UNDER the drawers!

Here is the boo girl pulling up on EVERYTHING! How exciting, but exhausting- she is so curious! It is amazing to watch her crawl all over and now find the courage and strength to stand!!

Louisa stands unaided for the first time!


Amy and I were home Tues evening watching Lulu when she grabbed on to the chest where her toys were, crabbed up and pulled to her feet -- we were so surpised! The first time and we were both watching.
Then she proceeded to try to push all the buttons on the stereo.

Rock and Roll!!!!

I got this shirt for Louisa in honor of Blair- this is a "stay at home" outfit but isnt it funny?? In case you cant tell those are hot pink and black electric guitars on her shirt- hee hee

Louisa'a new baby doll...

For her 1st birthday, Blair and I gave Louisa her very first baby doll.
I think she gave it her seal of approval when she licked her head
and then poked her eyes out. She did try to share her bottle with the baby doll- too cute!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOUISA!!!

Louisa turned ONE on August 19th! What a difference a year makes! We had a cupcake themed party for our family and neighbors. Marmee made this fabulous cake to look like a giant cupcake (and like the invitation- she is so talented!). She also made the minature cake for Louisa to dig into herself! The party started out raining but quickly cleared up for everyone to enjoy a BBQ dinner outside. Louisa was amazing and seemed to love every minute especially the balloons!

The birthday girl and her Da!
Aunt Jo sent a special birthday hat!
Lulu even sported a cupcake smocked dress to go along with the theme!

More Birthday Party!
