16 Months at Mid-Summer!


Wow! So much to post...so many photos! Needless to say, June and the beginning of July have turned out to be much busier than we anticipated! Between work and activity-filled weekends surrounding Father's Day, the Atlanta visit from Kinsley's cousins, and July Fourth up at the lake, we have been busy, busy, busy! And all of it can be best-captured in photos, of course. Although trying to capture the attention of my little 16-mo-old moving target is extremely challenging these days...you'll see that in the pictures below.

And after a rocky start to July - (just after the July 4th weekend, Kins came down with a high fever that lasted for days, and turned out to be Roseola...the ped said it's a very common virus that occurs in most children b/w 6 mo. and 3 yrs, and that - like Chicken Pox in our days - once you have it, you can't get it again...well, at least we crossed that one off the list). So anyway, we are now moving right along into July...or as I like to call it, Kinsley's "Full Social Calendar" month...we have started our weekly swim lessons and music classes...both going well so far! And I have to give a shout-out to Philip...on two separate occasions, he has been the only dad in attendance at both of these sessions...he loves being a part of these things with his girl...I love that.

Some other 16 month milestones to capture...Kinsley is definitely forming more words now, and is cutting about 6-7 teeth all at once right now, including her molars...poor baby. She is also getting very opinionated about what she wants and does not want to do...oh boy.

So, onto the photo recap of this past month! So...many...photos...
