Audrey Riley - first ambulance ride, etc.

Fourth of July

For the 2013 holiday we again attended Carmelfest with Grammy. The great thing was that daddy got to come with us this year as well. We listened to live music on stage, ate cotton candy, caramel corn, hot dogs, and rode/played on rides. The only problem was that we all fell asleep in the car before they actually started again this year. Grammy watched the fireworks with mommy and daddy since we were all asleep!

It was hilarious when we watched Vivi go up the inflatable stairs for this one...she was going really slowly and the kids behind her must've said something....Grammy and mommy saw her turn around and let them have it. They could only imagine what she said to them. She cracks us up daily!

I got to jump on the giant bungee trampolines this year and LOVED it! I went SOOOOOO high!

Daddy letting off a firework at our house...I think it was a dud!

New Foods!

On July 1st, at 6 months old, Blythe tried her first baby food. It was squash. She wasn't a huge fan but thought it was ok. She pushed it out with her tongue.

Homemade pears on 7/4 - a little thick in texture

July 6th: apples (gerber) - and sweet potatoes (homemade). Sweet potatoes are probably favorite so far. not sure of apples. She kind of blows rasberries and spits it out everywhere and just smiles as she takes it all in.

A few fingers always seem to taste pretty good as well.



Homemade avacado. Not sure at first but became a favorite after a few tries. This was one of Vivi's faves too. I never made homemade food for Audrey. :(

First rice husk! Loved it!

Cheerios! YUM!



Pappaw's Birthday

At the last minute, we asked Pappaw if he would like to meet for dinner on his birthday. It was a week night so daddy and Matt didn't make it. However, Susan, Austin, Gavin, and all of us girls made it. Pappaw brought Sue and Grandma O. with him as well. We met at Ivanhoe's in Upland, Indiana. They have over a hundred different flavors of ice cream and really yummy food. Mommy made John Deere cupcakes, too. We had a really nice visit before we headed back home. Susan was still on maternity leave so that made it nice.

We love you! Happy Birthday!



Blythe's First Tooth

Blyuthe's first tooth was the bottom right front. She was not even fussy or drooly. I only knew because she was chewing on my chin and then I just checked with my finger and a tooth had popped through.

Father's Day 2013

Happy Father's Day!! We love you so much daddy. You are super awesome and thank you for everything you do for us every single day. Love, love, love your girls!

We celebrated our Daddy by going to church (he got to watch the Bible School program) and then a nice lunch at one of his favorites, Bonefish Grill. Then we just relaxed at home.

Later, daddy stayed home and took a nap while us girls met Pappaw to celebrate him in the afternoon.
