JULY 2017

JULY 2017

 Farmington Fireworks- July 3rd
 We weren't quite sure how she would react to fireworks...
it's an understatement to say she LOVED them
The cuteness is TOO MUCH
 Cousins at the Canandaigua Parade
Thanks Oma for the Mickey and Minnie shirts


 These girls were talking to each other while enjoying their
 water and parade tootsie rolls
 Sonnenburg mansion and gardens


  

 
 'Hots' and Fireworks
What's more American

Madie helping hammer as we do a little redecorating
 TOO COOL for school


 We received our first Shop Rite order of 12 pallets
so I went in to work a few days to help.
Madie had a lot of fun and Brody... tolerated it!



 Give this girl a paycheck, she's ready to work

Madie waits every morning for Brody to wake up
 and she greets him with a smile

He is such a happy baby. He lights up our world.

 Taking advantage of the pool at our complex
 Everyone needed a backpack to play


Lollipop Farm 
and Humane Society of Greater Rochester
 We spend a lot of time at Kershaw Park and Boardwalk
 Madie takes her baby and stroller EVERY where we go
 We feel so fortunate to live in such a beautiful place

He's taking control of his 'Bink'
 Madie what have you been teaching Brody
NO FINGERS!!! 

 Sometimes you wake up with great hair

 Jeffrey and Heather Meadows Wedding

Devil's Bathtub Trail 
 Looking good in the Minnie Mouse stroller
 Pizza, Picnic at the Park
 You can see Scott's legs hanging out
He's helping Madie up the tunnel
Now she's trying to help Daddy get out 

 She was a pro in no time


2 peas in a pod/crib

  I love these moments when everyone sleeps in... 
even if I'm awake

Another stroll at Kershaw park



Spending time at one of our favorite places
Grimes Glen- July 17th




 Sharing a Linnie Lou's Ice cream cone

 From our garden, yay!
 first attempts at sitting on his own

  Madie made it all the way to the library pushing her stroller
0.8 miles

We were taking our typical Sunday walk (through the cemetary) and 
Madie was sitting in the stroller with her baby doll.
 She started lifting up her shirt all the way so Scott was teasing me
that I'm teaching our daughter to 'flash' while he's gone. 
Then she stuck her baby inside her shirt and says 'Mak Mak (milk, milk).
I guess I am the one teaching her this... She's feeding her baby just like Mommy does.
She now does it all the time, but her babies get fed from her belly button
Even Brody get a turn
 We always come home with collections of rocks, leaves, branches, and berries
 Kershaw swimming


 She's becoming a good climber


July 22nd
We took a day trip to 1000 Islands
We enjoyed a boat tour and Boldt Castle
 


 

At the turn-of-the-century, George C. Boldt, millionaire proprietor of the 

world famous Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City, 

set out to build a full size rhineland castle in Alexandria Bay, 

on picturesque Heart Island.  

The grandiose structure was to be a display 

of his love for his wife, Louise.


In January 1904, tragedy struck. Boldt telegraphed the island and commanded the workers to immediately “stop all construction.” Louise had died suddenly. A broken hearted Boldt could not imagine his dream castle without his beloved. Boldt never returned to the island, leaving behind the structure as a monument of his love.
 

 Entertaining the whole boat
 Lunch by the castle
 Keep the dream alive of owning our own island
Selfie Fail

 Church ends at 12:30 and Madie fell asleep on the 5 minute
car ride home, so then she wouldn't nap...
Until 5:30 dinnertime

 We finally got ourselves a new KING size bed

4 MONTHS
 Look at the cute flower in the back
 Enjoying this perfect weather by feeding the ducks at the lake

 

 2 little monkeys sitting on the couch
 Watch out Brody she might swing you right out of that thing


Our new bags are starting to show up at the stores
Ontario County Fair

 Madie liked her because her name is Minnie


  
 Sitting on a bench holding her water bottle
tried to get off and fell forward but didn't want to let go
of the bottle.... so her face hit the dirt. 
 Nothing a little free ice cream can't fix
 Watkin's Glen
July 31st






OOPS!!! 



Brody brings a smile to everyone he meets.
His happy face lights up the world.
He is a pro at rolling from front to back.
He is waking up ALOT during the night :/
He loves being outside and enjoys swimming
 (lake, pool or bath he loves the water)
He is always entertained by his sister.
Madie is so full of life
She loves walking, bows, rocks and collecting things,
pockets, her stroller, pointing out flags on walks, 
she can count to 10 and is starting to learn her colors
(lellow is her favorite) and she is talking so much.
We love her so much!
