Camille Elizabeth is here!!

Camille Elizabeth arrived August 31 at 10:09 am weighing a "hefty" 6 pounds, 8 ounces and was 19 inches long. The beautiful photos above are her newborn pictures taken when she was 6 days old.

36 weeks

Photos taken by the amazingly talented Beth with Tip Toe Photography. I seriously adore these pictures.

4th of July Fun

We had a fun and low key 4th of July this year. Our neighborhood always does a great little parade and pool party, so we invited Elise's friends Audrey, Keira, and Olivia to join us.

Our house is on the parade route, so we set out "spectators" to watch since we were all participating. :)

Elise on her decked out tricycle. She pedaled so hard for the entire 1/2 mile parade.

Matt also showed his patriotism!!

And shocker of all shocks- Elise won first place overall for her decorated tricycle!!!!

Happy Father's Day!

Matt- you are simply amazing. Elise is so lucky to have such an incredible daddy and I am so thankful to have you as my husband and father of my children. We love you. 

(DAD- keeping the tradition going.  2010 and 2009)

Pinkalicious

Alecia, Melanie, and I took the girls to see Pinkalicious at the Magik Theater. Elise loves the book and was so excited to the the show!

With friends Marissa, Sadie, and Sydnie waiting for our tickets.

The girls sat in the front row and we sat behind them. I had no idea how Elise would do, but she sat in her seat for the full hour and loved every minute of the musical!

She even got to meet the cast!

I promise we did not pose them!!! These girls are SO sweet! It makes me very excited for baby sister's arrival knowing the fun she will get to have.

Horseshoe Bay- Memorial Weekend

We decided to stay at the lake the entire holiday weekend and spent the next two nights at the Marriott at Horseshoe Bay. This is such a great and very family friendly resort; we had a blast and look forward to going back again soon!

Elise at the "beach." Do not be fooled by her smile. She was not a fan of the sand at all and basically stood frozen, in the same place, for a good 20 minutes.

Watching the boats with Tompa.

She was much happier back at the pool!

Fletch's First Birthday

We headed to Lake LBJ for Memorial Weekend. Saturday was Fletch's first birthday party and the kids all had a blast!

Elise still talks about the cotton candy Mr. Jeff made for her.

The slip and slide was a huge hit!!

Happy hour with GiGi.

But Elise's favorite person is Tompa. She follows him around and mimics everything he does. Hopefully she won't take up his martini habit!!! :)

It was a wonderful day at the lake and a great way to kick off summer!!!

Last Day of School

Elise has had a fantastic 2 years at Harvest Day School and we were so sad to see them close their doors.

With her sweet sweet teacher, Ms. Dana.

The kids put on the cutest End of the Year Performance!! It was darling and I was so impressed... Elise totally sang and danced her little heart out.

Crazy how quickly this year flew by.
