Pool Party
Connor had his first experience in a swimming pool this week. Cathy has a plastic baby pool that is just big enough to fit on her deck under the awning (so no one gets a sunburn!). Of course he's not quite big enough to sit on his own and splash around. But with the help of the Bebe Pod seat, he was able to sit in the water without Mommy's help. He mostly just leaned over and put one hand in the water and explored his toes a bit. I can't wait until next summer when we can really have fun!

Indians' Game

Photobucket


Tonight was the annual TLF Night at the Ballpark so we headed to downtown Indy for the Indianapolis Indians game. Victory Field is so very nice! We had a fantastic time! The weather was perfect... not too hot and we were in the shade... and Connor was very well behaved. I could tell he was tired, but there was just so much going on around him, he couldn't possibly fall asleep. But once we got to the car, he was asleep before we left the parking garage. His first baseball game was a success. Next stop... Wrigley Field!

Happy Fourth of July!
What a wonderful day! We headed south today to Terre Haute to cook out at my aunt and uncle's. While the weather wasn't nearly as warm as we hoped, it didn't rain so we were at least able to grill out. Connor was of course dressed in his Fourth of July attire.

All eight of my cousins were there, my brother and sister-in-law, nieces, my mom and step-dad, my aunt, my uncle and his parents, and my grandma all made it. I love when all get together. We used to spend lots of time with my aunt, uncle, and cousins when I was little. But now that some of use are grown up we don't get to see them as much. Here is a picture of Jason with my cousin Caleb (number 6 of the 7 cousins) and my oldest niece Callie.

We came back to Lafayette in time to see the fireworks here. Connor did stay up in time to see them. Surprisingly, he wasn't startled by them. He did watch them, but then again, he also watched the headlights of the cars passing by on the nearby highway.
