Darci turned 30 in June and we celebrated with many of her friends in Broad Ripple.
Jill and I were pregnant together all summer. We are about 6months prego here. She had a boy and I had a girl.
The girls planned a dinner to help us celebrate our babes.
Ben turned 16. There are a lot of things I love about Ben, and one of them is that he wanted pizza and cookies for his Bday. Happy Bday to me too, then! Ha!
Ben's 16th Birthday.
Mom turned 50 on 7/11. She went to Turks and Caicos for her 50th so we stuck with the island theme for her birthday celebration.
Eli helped make a good wish. He loves his Nana so and she is so nice to him!
We went to a concert at the Palladium for mom's 50th.
Carl had never heard of the Indigo Girls before and was a little surprised by their audience.
James and Ashley at the concert. It was a really good summer concert. I would go again.
Aunt Moe was in town for her birthday. She and uncle Mark went to Turks and Caicos too.
We went to Michigan for July 4th.
Eli has lots of fun with his papa.
Eli took his first boat ride on the Detroit river and got to see a bit of Canada for the first time.
He was a hit on the boat and the captain let him have a go at the captain's seat.
Uncle Adam traveled to Chile and Tibet this summer. We missed him, but enjoyed hearing about his experience. He is going to Africa over Christmas break.
These lovely girls had a celebration dinner for Baby Kate and I. I love my bible study group. They are inspiring women.
My mom, Ashley and Jackie had a celebration for baby Kate too, but I must have just had food on my mind because this is the only photo I took. :o(
Tom and Jessie had a Bike parade. All the kids decorated bikes, wagons and scooters. It was really cute, but super HOT.
Eli had a fireman's wagon. He was a little sweaty.
Caylee rode with Eli since her ride was a little slower than the rest of the gang.
We went to a Silly Safari's party too that was tons of fun, but sooo HOT. The boys came home and crashed on the floor in the living room to cool off. I forgot to take the camera to the party. Eli liked all the animals, but I was surprised that he liked the reptiles such as the giant bull frog and the lizard the best.
Carl turned 33 on August 2nd, and Eli couldn't wait to get started on the ice cream cake.
Happy Bday dada.
2wks before delivery.
Jill and I survived all the way to the state fair. The food is a pregnant girl's dream!
Eli liked watching the tractor parade.
He always likes to pet the baby cows too.
We took him to the zoo just before the baby came.
Eli got to feed the giraffes.
He also went back to chucky cheeses.
One more birthday picture. I hope these wishes come true!
