2. They are both loving swim lessons. The first few days with Juliet were no fun. She didn't wan to listen, she just wanted to splash around and keep cool. Now she loves it. Bryan took over and has gone with her to all of the classes, except for one. They both love the alone time together. Plus they can look right over and see Gianna in another part of the pool. Gianna loves it and talks about it all the time. She is doing so great. This past weekend we took her swimming at her Nonna's house, and she was so brave! Showing us her underwater moves, kicking, and jumping in. I am glad she likes it so much. Some of my fondest memories was taking lessons with my brother at our local park. We were always so excited to show our Mom our new moves.


3. Juliet of course is bursting with new words daily. This week her newest words are: share, bird, I want some, no thank you, Hailey, potty, wipes and diaper. I am getting scared for when she really starts talking. I totally feel like Gianna has a word quota to reach a day, and double that is going to be insanity! haha

4. Speaking of G. She has been so sweet lately, and also very self sufficient. The sweetness I love, but she has been getting into everything. She pours her sister and her a bowl of cereal while I am in the laundry room (so sneaky so I cant hear), washes her own fruit, and just yesterday decided to use a butter knife to cut an avocado she wanted to share with her sister. I don't know what to do! I baby proofed the cabinets, do they have a refrigerator lock so kids cant open it? I don't really mind the fact that she is eating, its more that she takes it in her playroom. Avocado and her new purple rug don't mix! Believe me, I had to clean it up yesterday. I did manage to get a cute pic of her relaxing with Belle and drawing some pictures for her friends on her adorable purple rug.

5. OK I know I said I was going to do a giveaway this month for my Mom's baby line, but I have been so busy that I haven't had time for anything. I promise I am still going to do it! =) Soooo keep an eye out!
6. I am so excited the fair is coming into town! I love the fair and all the fried goodness it brings with it! Gianna is also excited. She said she wants to play all the games and eat ice cream and funnel cakes. Sounds like a good plan to me!
7. On Sunday my sisters Jessi, Sharon and I went bridesmaid dress shopping. Julie decided that we could all chose our own style then we will all wear the same color. Its going to be in a really pretty dark blue (more royal, less navy). My dress is so me and it is so pretty! Julie also bought her wedding dress that day and it is gorgeous. I cant wait for the wedding. I am so happy for my best friend! I love seeing her so happy!!

(in the pic Julie tried on the dress her sister is going to wear, since she lives in Idaho and couldn't be here)
8. We also love summer because play dates are weekly and a must!! For the sanity of us all. Being with some awesome Moms and amazing lil kiddos is the best! In the past few weeks we have gone to the Ladera splash park, a movie and a park day, Sea world, and this week we are having a little potluck. I am going to miss the fun when we go to Buffalo, but I wont be gone too long.


9. Yup this weekend we are taking off to Buffalo for 10 days. I am eager to hang out with the cousins since we have all been keeping in touch via facebook and because they are just awesome people. We have a few fun things planned and maybe a trip back to Niagara falls, but hopefully this time we will be able to go at night.
10. Being in buffalo and the fact that my other computer doesn't have photoshop on it, means I wont be posting for a while. I do however anticipate lots of pics when I get back!!!
