Before heading in for the evening, Dad brought popsicles out for us to enjoy while swinging on the front porch. I liked my cherry one so much, that mom shared her watermelon with me also. Night folks... it's time for a bath and a brush!

Sending Love to GrMa Reusser...

For those of you who don't know my GrMa Reusser, she is a very adventurous young lady. She travels all over the world and is a kid at heart when it comes to playing with her toys in Michigan. Last week she took a spill on the wave-runner and broke her ankle. She had 2 broken bones and had to have surgery. Her cast is supporting 2 plates and numerous pins. Rest up and we will be up there soon to entertain and take care of you!

Fishers Freedom Festival...

My mom and I have been spending a lot of quality time with Nana and Grampy. Today we attended the parade along with the Warners. Lots of great loot was handed out... beach balls, noise makers, pin wheels and candy! Grampy made sure I got to sit front row and cheer for the firetrucks!

Congratulations Adam & Kate!!!

The classic, and timeless photo opt... DORKS!!!
(It makes me giggle like a school girl each time we do it though.)


Kate is a co-worker of mine. We have had a lot of good times together. We have vacationed together, she house sits for us and takes care of Tucker when we are out of town. She and I used to coach cheerleading together also. We couldn't be happier for her, but are very sad to see her move away. Kate and Adam, we wish you the very best! Enjoy your honeymoon in Mexico!!!

Miss Congeniality...

Miss Congeniality & 1st Runner Up...
Haley Newton!!!
Friday we made posters and brought a rowdy bunch of Newtons to cheer Haley on in the 4-H Queen pageant. She did WONDERFUL! She is so spunky and cute. Her answers were genuine and honest. Haley was voted by her peers as Miss Congeniality and finished as 1st runner up overall. CONGRATULATIONS HALEY!!!


The "Pool"

Nana and Grampy have a great "pool" for Addie. Their hot tub is the perfect fit for little girl. We got her water wings and she L-O-V-E-S swimming with them! Her new thing is counting "1-2,1-2...2...2" and then jumping in and splashing everyone. She thinks she is pretty hot stuff when it comes to jumping in and swimming with her floaties.

Blue Light Special...

Hey folks, in case you didn't know...
my Uncle Mark is a pretty cool guy.

I played with his laser light key chain all afternoon.

Beam me up Scotty!

Trip to Bedford...

Wednesday was Nana's birthday. Grampy and I took her to Bedford to be with her family and friends. Uncle Mark and his crew are home before moving to Kansas in July. Ian is off to Texas A&M and Mitchell is headed to West Point. It's hard to believe that they are freshmen in college! It was so great to visit with everyone.

Happy Birthday Sophie!!!

The Birthday Girl Turns 1!!!
Hey, this stuff is good...
So good in fact, I'll wear it as make-up!
(Aren't they an ugly family?)

Miss Addie, got stripped down to enjoy all the treats.

She is much like her mother and enjoys her sweets!

Drum Roll Please...

We have pee pee in the potty!!! Well, would you be happy if your picture was
being taken while you were on the potty?

FLUSH...
BYE, BYE

Monday I purchased Addie a big girl potty. I'm not pushing the potty training, I'm just trying to slowly introduce this new concept over the summer break, while I have some extra time. Addie wanted absolutely nothing to do with the potty, and that was fine. However in the past couple of days she has wanted to use the potty, so we took advantage. We have 3 successful trips... 2 pees and 1 poopy. She even wants to wipe, flush and wash her hands. GO TEAM POTTY TRAINING!!!

Fashion Show...

Mommy dresses me, so I will dress Tucker
A kiss for the BESTEST big brother ever!
Is this not the most pitiful face?
As I get ready Addie and Tucker play in our bedroom. We pull out various toys for her to play with and she entertains herself. Today, I look over and she is playing dress up with the dog!!! She got the ears on him, but never figured out how to get the other tutu on him. Needless to say, I got a good laugh!

First Big Tumble...

My lip, may be busted, but you should see the other guy!
Tuesday, I went to Miss Kathy's while mom attended a workshop. We were having so much fun outside running around, I forgot to watch where I was running and busted my lip open on the stair. I'm just like my dad... a picker. I've already picked my scab off. Mom was grossed out when I handed it to her!

Ahh...

Just sittin' back, enjoying my watermelon!

Watermelon Wedge...

County Fair Watermelon Eating Contestant

My mom and dad sure do laugh at me a lot these days. I'm starting to think they are laughing at me and not with me. Mom finds me really entertaining, now that we are spending all of our days together. Nothing like some summer-time silliness to make her day at my exspense.

Happy Father's Day...

I let Dad golf on Saturday, deal was we had to hang at the zoo on Sunday.
We saw all kinds of animals... up close and personal.
Daddy, this is so cool!
We spent the morning of Father's Day at the zoo. We met up with the Warners and enjoyed a relaxed morning and lunch hanging out with all of the wildlife. Addie went nuts again for the penguins, made friends with a walrus and enjoyed feeding the giraffe.
Happy Father's Day Doug... We love you soooo much!
XOXO - Angie & Addie

Saturday Adventure...

Saturday morning, mom took me to play at the water park.
Here she is, up to her old tricks, kicking water at me...nice lady!
We met up with Amy, Claire and Emily for some fun.

Once I learn how to maneuver these water-works contraptions, I'll get you back!
This is mommy's favorite picture of the day... Emily having fun!
Like my hat?

Looks like I should be riding a camel.

What can I say... it works.

Future life guards in training.

Emily: "Look Addie, there is someone in distress!"

Addie: "I'm on my way to save the day!"
