Battle of the Balloon

So when Thérèse was a few months old we used to entertain her for hours with a balloon. Now she has learned usually when she pushes things away they go away. The balloon however always comes back. This sometimes upsets her. Watch the struggle in action...









And the balloon comes a little closer....






Let the battle begin!

Summer is flying!

Wow we can't believe how quickly summer is going. We thought that the summer would slow down. Let the lowering number of posts in the previous months be an indication of what really happened...

Check out these great summer moments!


Parish Festival...We were all working so hard at the ice cream booth for the youth group...oh wait that was just Brad and the rest of us were just hanging out BY the ice cream booth.

First Red's Game...Thérèse got a certificate and everything. No really, it is hanging on our fridge. Since Thérèse didn't have any Reds gear, Brad thought it would be a good idea to dress her in the Indian's onsie he bought her. As you can see Mom stepped in and saved the day.

All the excitement really wore her out.



A new trick has been to roll everywhere she wants...Hence this picture was difficult to get!

We had visitors for Father's Day.
Thérèse with two generations of fathers!



She had fun playing with her auntie Kristin.


In her free time Thérèse has taken up reading,


talking,



and eating...


Did we mention she is a quick learner?


We were in Tiffin for the weekend of the 4th and drove back to Cincy on the 4th.

Here is Thérèse with her Great-Grandma Kimmet. That was a fun day!

Matching Cousins...too cute.



Well we've got just a few more weeks to soak up those last summer days of

crusty smiles

stroller parades and of course

bucket swings.


Have a wonderful day!

We will leave you to ponder this latest sleeping pose of Thérèse. Yes, those legs are fully extended. Sleep on that.
