We celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary on Wednesday. Mama came and kept Rosemary and Ella Kate while Scott and I went away for the night to Snowbird Lodge (pictures to come). We enjoyed the time together but really missed the girls. This is a picture of us holding a gift they made us. We are so proud of it and of them especially. We are blessed beyond belief!!!
I have posted a few pictures of Amelia on her beach trip with the youth group from our church. I can't find any of Savannah. They are both having a great time - actually they are both on the bus headed for home today. We will be glad to have them home! The best part of the trip was that Amy and Jason were there too. This is a very cute picture of Jason and Amelia hanging out at the restaurant last night. Click on the picture and get a look at more.
Scott had a happy Father's Day. We all got up and gave him cards and gifts. We got ready for church and headed out. After church, we went to lunch with Morgan's family. Ella Kate loves them all so much!!! We came home to see Memommy and Pop. They came to visit PaPa for Father's Day. Our neighbor was selling a golf cart so Pop went up to see it. He bought it! Jason and Scott helped him get it hooked to Memommy's car. We made homemade ice cream that was sooooooooooo delicious!!! Ella Kate was so wound up, she had a hard time getting to sleep.
Ella Kate went to the doctor today for her second round of shots. She knew exactly where we were. As soon as the nurse came in, she was upset, especially when we laid her down on the black table. Dr. Morgan checked her ears for infection, but they were clear. She thinks Ella is picking up germs that she can't fight off and gets a cold. She put her on a mantainance med - we hope it helps her nose stay clear. Ella also had to get 5 shots. Two in one leg, one in the other, and one in each arm. Needless to say, she sceamed. Amelia and Rosemary went for checkups as well, and each had to get blood work and shots. They were real troopers and helped sooooooooooooooooo much with Ella!!! It has always been tradition to go to the toy store after shots so off we went. Ella and Rosie found a treat, and Amelia wants to go to the mall for a shirt. I guess that is fair. We are all glad this day is coming to an end. We are off to the pool for a little swim before bed.
Yesterday Ella Kate was 14 months old. The months are flying by! We have been home a little over 2 months, and Ella has learned so much! She loves to look at books and be read to. She is trying to stand. She can pull up and cruise the furniture. She says many words and signs many others. We are having a ball this summer with her!!!
