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.

Maggie enjoying her lollipop.

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

The 3 big kids watching the parade.

Playing with Hayden's toys at the Henry's house. Francesca doesn't look too happy for some reason.

Peyton giving a cheesy grin...Anna is thinking, "what is up with you girl?"

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.

Summer Fun!

Just doing a little catch up here. A few pictures from the last month or so. Anna playing with her second cousin Brooke who is 3 months younger than Anna but 2 pounds heavier!

We had a yard sale where Francesca had her first Lemonade stand.

Watering her flower garden.

We went to the farm in Ellicott City. Francesca loves petting the goats.

Cooling off in the sprinkler.

Vacation with the South Carolina Woodys!

We went on our first family vacation as a foursome to Aunt Kelley and Uncle Tony's house. We stayed at their house for a few days then went to Aunt Kelley's lake house for a few days. Francesca was so excited to play with her cousin Katherine. Caleb is a little older so he didn't hang with the girls much. They started the visit off with a little Twister. Ready for a big girl sleepover with Katherine.

We took the golf cart to a little pond in the neighborhood to go fishing. Anna sat in the shade with Aunt Kelley and tried to drive the golf cart.

Francesca went fishing for the first time. Daddy showed her how to cast and reel in a big one.

She caught her first fish on the very first cast. She caught 2 more after that and then a 14 inch bass the next day. She was so excited!

Anna cooling off in the lake. It was 102 degrees!

Daddy with the Woody girls in the lake.

Francesca and Anna had their first boat ride.

Anna did not like the life jacket at all.

Francesca also experienced tubing for the first time and loved it. She called it ski boarding for some reason.

Sisters by the lake.

Woody family photo.

Attempt at getting a good shot of the 4 cousins. Anna wasn't feeling it.

Anna's 1st trip to Nana's shore

We went to Nana's shore this weekend. The weather was perfect. Anna turned 9 months old. She weighs 21lbs and is 27 1/2 inches long. She has 6 teeth and more are coming! She wants to walk or crawl in the worst way but she just can't grasp the concept yet. Francesca and Anna in their matching yellow beach chairs.

I covered Francesca up in the sand. She didn't like it a whole lot.

Francesca loved the water. She swam everyday.

Anna enjoyed putting sand in her hair, ears, eyes, mouth, you name it.

More fun building sand castles.
