sneak peak from the beach!

I don't have time to do a full post but here are a couple shots from our recent trip!

also on the fourth...

Ava turned 5 months!

Not too much to report: She ate carrots for the first time today- I could not get them in her mouth fast enough for her :) She is trying really hard to roll from her back to her front... and the cutest thing is how much she laughs at her big sister! She laughs at her so hard and at the most random things :)

hence carrot stained face:

Happy 4th!!

We went back and forth trying to make plans to celebrate the 4th of July and we settled on a plan the morning of!! We ended up having a lot of fun: we went to the pool with Randy's brother and his family including Bella's cousins, Sophie & Stone- her favorite playmates. They had lunch there and games for the kids. Bella went under water with Randy a few times... finally!

That night we tried to go to the Whitewater Center but got a late start and the line to get in was backed up on to 485 quite a ways so for fear of missing the show, we turned around and went to Carowinds. We got a great spot and enjoyed it (until we had to wait TWO hours to get out of the parking lot)!
