One year in the house!

July 1st marked one year in our new house.  It's looking great (see evidence below) and we might just have the outside done this summer.  CK is doing a fantastic job as always and working hard despite the above 90 degree temperatures this week.  Maybe we'll reward him with a trip to the lake this weekend to try out his new jetski ;)



A pretty adorable picture of Asher saying to Emily "Emily, how big are you?  Soooooo Big!"  She loves her big brother.  Emily has finally blurted out her first word(s).  Like the other kids, it's "Dada" although we think she's managed to say "Hi Dada" as well which would make sense because CK's been saying "Hi Emily, Hi Dad" to her since she was born.  No Mama yet, but you know I'm working on it.  She's also started sitting up by herself a lot better in the last week or so.  She still manages to face plant from time to time but is definitely getting better balance and core strength so we don't have to put quite as many pillows around her.

Reese and I went out to breakfast on Saturday just the two of us, which was really nice.  Reese grabbed my iPhone and decided to take some pictures, including some pretty hilarious self portraits while we were waiting to be seated.

 this is my favorite:


 Our "little" girl is growing up really fast.
