So little time...

Well, well, well...lookie here who's bloggin' again! Surprised? I know! It's been well over a month since I posted last and that's because there has just been SO much going on and so little time! Summer has arrived and we've been soaking up every minute with Cailyn! She's experienced so many firsts in the past month:

(1) 1st camping trip


(2) 1st dip in the swimming pool




(3) 1st "real" food (she's now had oatmeal, green beans, peas, sweet potatoes, carrots, bananas, avocados, butternut squash, and apples)




(4) 1st time at the beach...in the sand and in the ocean!


(5) 1st tooth AND 2nd tooth...both within one day of each other!


(6) CRAWLING...or, rather, scooting really well (she "crawls" sometimes)


(7) 1st trip to the zoo (pics posted soon!)

Gosh, I feel like I'm missing something, but I'll update if I've forgotten! We've also had family visiting the past two weeks. My sis brought my nephews for their annual summer beach trip...Cailyn LOVES her cousins and they loved playing together. Cole and Chase LOVE Cailyn, too, and they really enjoy spending time with her. Cole takes such good care of her and making sure she has what she needs! My parents and little brother visited the following week. OK, I guess my brother is not so little anymore...he turns 16 on July 4th! We took Cailyn to the zoo for the first time and I think she really liked it!

Our garden is doing really well and we've already gotten a few tomaters, squash, green beans, and I have a few cukes almost ready! I've had 2 job interviews so far...one went well, the other? Not so well, but I have another today and I'm keeping my fingers crossed! So, I guess you could say we're living large and really enjoying our summertime together as a family. That's enough jibber jabber from me. For now, I'll just leave you with some recent pics (above) with a promise of more to come!
