Joyful meets her Grandaddy!

This Labor Day weekend we spent in St. Louis with my family. Joy was able to meet her Grandaddy for the first time! It was a wonderful time to be home with my whole family (except Charley) and spend much needed time together. In the last month Grandaddy was diagnosed with Cancer. Seeing someone you love hurting is so hard. When it is your Daddy and your hero, its even harder! Seeing him adore his little grand-daughters was something I cannot describe! I will post some more pics of the weekend with the family. But for now this one is my very favorite!

She loves her sister

These days go by too fast! These two little ones are a blessing from above. Rose loves her "baby joy"...somedays I wish life would slow down and they would stop growing up...

Ocean City...the annual weekend away

This past weekend was our annual trip to Ocean City to watch Daddy play lacrosse. And as Rose puts it, "Go Daddy, Run fast lacrosse!" She is his biggest fan.

We had a great time getting together with all our friends, Reed, the Videons, the Kupfers, and more....It was a great time to get away.

Elmo went swimming in the bay, "Go Momo, Swim fast" ...hmm someone has been watching too much lacrosse

Rose and her Cay-Bob....they are BFFs. Too cute.

Our Family

A lot goes on in one year....

So its been a year since I have updated this thing, but I think I am going to try and keep up with this. We will see how it goes. This past year has flown by. We have added to our little family and things are going well. Rose is now 22 months and Baby Joy is 5 weeks old! They are a blessing. Here are some pics to catch everyone up!

Rose loves her "paci's"

Vacation in Duck, NC

We went to the beach with the Dennstaedt family at the end of July. Rose wasn't a big fan of the ocean or of the sand. She loved playing in the hose and pulling magazines off the shelf. Good thing we drove all the way to the beach for that! HaHa. Next year she will be all over the place and I'm not ready for that!
