We are off to the pool, which is just the start of the day. Later, we are meeting our baseball friends at the Tofflemire July 4th party to watch the baseball game and fireworks.
Gaint Foot Prints
Katie Beth is having wonderful time at the Huntsville Botanical Garden. We stopped by to take Katie Beth by her tree near the children’s play area.
Happy Birthday Katie Beth
Our little girl has turned two today. It has been a wild ride so far
with Katie Beth. She is so full of energy and life.
I’m so thankful that she came into our lives.
Playing with Birthday Gifts
Katie Beth loves the sandbox and the toys for the sandbox.
Everyone had a great time and cookie and angle food cake were very tasty.
Katie Beth’s Birthday Party
She turns two on Thursday. We celebrated today with Karen’s family, Katie Beth’s godparents, and my parents.
Red Robin at Huntsville Stars
Katie Beth loves to see characters. And, the Red Robin mascot was no different at today’s Huntsville Stars game.
Huntsville Stars Military Appreciation
Katie Beth got sit in a helicopter.
The baseball was good, too. I primarily took care of Katie Beth, while Karen got some adult time. I love to just let Katie Beth explore the ballpark and that what we did during the game.
Another Day of Fun
Linda and Ellice Johnson stopped in for visit today while they are in town from Santa Barbara. We had a great time catching up. We shared lunch from Thomas Bar-B-Q and we went to my dad’s bar, The Nook, since they had not seen it.
Later in the day, Karen, Katie Beth, and I went to the pool. Katie Beth had fun spraying the deck with the water hose. Karen got to sit and read her book.
What a busy day!
Hmmm. Corn-the-Cob
Weekend of Swimming
We spent most of the weekend swimming. Katie Beth had a blast. I get a kick out of watching her play in the water.
Over the next few weeks, we are going to have to get serious about her swimming skills, because she has lost many of her abilities from last summer. Last summer, she held her breath when asked to do so. Now, she will laugh her way into the deep water and keep laughing as she goes under.
I hope to get her in the pool during the week when there are fewer people (less children) to distract her. We need to work on her holding her breath and floating. We will start with floating and rolling over in the water.
