Catching Up...

Life is treating us good! We love our new home and are having a blast with Juliet. She is now walking everywhere and is non-stop on the go! She loves reading books, watching sesame street and is learning to feed herself with a spoon! Her main words are Mama, Dada and Baa Baa...(we are working on expanding her vocabulary). She is a total joy!

Here are some pictures from the last few weeks.

Since it was only a mild 90 degrees outside today...we decided to take Juliet for a walk around the lakes at Desert Shores. The lake was so peaceful and serene. We would love to own a home someday there, right on the water. I made a new healthy muffin receipe that no one in the family liked, we tried feeding them to the ducks, but even they didn't like them...Oh well. We did get some great shots of Juliet though!

We had a pretty quiet fourth of July this year. Ryan's parents and sister were both out of town and since gas costs an arm and a leg these days we decided to just stay at home. We took Juliet to the Summerlin Patriotic Parade and sat in the hot sun for two hours. Even though it was hot, we had fun looking at all the ballons, dancers and floats. That night we went out to eat at a new little mexican restaurant we found...El Burrito. It was pretty good, but a little over priced. We bought a few fireworks and sparklers and lit them with Juliet, she was fascinated. So that was our quiet holiday, I missed having family and friends around and having a big BBQ. We will have to make up for it next year. I am thankful to live in this blessed country and to have the freedoms we enjoy.
