More Shore Time.

We went to the shore again over the weekend. We had a good time until the ride home. We got into a car accident. Thank God we are all OK. Here are some pictures from the fun part of our weekend. Check out the tan lines on Anna.

Mama and Francesca showing off the catch of the day.

Anna swam and crawled so much on the beach she couldn't even hold her head up to eat dinner.

Anna has a sand beard from eating so much sand.

Ballerina Birthday Party

Francesca went to her friend, Gabriella's birthday party 2 weeks ago. It was at a dance studio in Columbia. She had a lot of fun, but when it was time to perform the dance for the parents she decided she had enough and sat on my lap the rest of the time. My beautiful ballerina.

Learning how to dance to Sleeping Beauty with her hot pink tutu.

Stretching before the dance.

Happy 4th of July!

We had a fun 4th of July. We went to the parade in Arbutus then to the Henry's for a cookout. Anna had fun on her 1st 4th of July.

Hayden didn't like the sirens on the fire trucks...

neither did Francesca.

The whole crew: Erica, Anna, Francesca, Peyton, Melissa, Maggie, Hayden, and Dawn.

Anna is 10 months old!

Anna is 10 months old already! She wants to walk in the worst way. She crawls everywhere and walks all along the furniture. She loves to chase her sister. She is starting to say a few words. She laughs all of the time. Here is what happens to Anna's hair after swimming in the pool and then taking a nice, long nap.

Getting a bottle with Sissy.

Swinging in the swing at the pool.
