Last year this time...

 

 

Okay babies- this is the closest we picture we have to your actual birth-day- this picture was taken one year ago today. 2 days before you arrived! I was at McAlisters Restaurant with your aunt Pammy and we had just picked out some things for her new classroom at the teacher store nearby! It was easily 100 degrees outside and I remember getting quite a few stares. I admit, I looked concerning!! But 2 days later, you were in our arms :) Can't believe you are almost 1~!

 

July What?

 

July has come and feels like it's already gone! Here's what you two have been up to!

 

 

 

Aunt Pammy is back from her mission trip in Russia! Libby is explaining

how much she missed her :)

 

visiting Pam's roomies at their awesome new house!!! These girls are the sweetest!

 

Play date with McKinley! First time to have a tea party with a friend :)

 

Hudson came over for a play date with us! Congratualtions on your new baby borther Hudson! You are an amazing, sweet, and fun big brother already. Here you are feeding Libby girl :)

Libby is really into sharing now, so thoughtful, a half eaten, soggy cracker- yum yum

 

Lunch outside on the patio? Why not?

Swing Swing

 

Giggles galore as you two explored the big kid swings at the park! You used to love your baby swings, but we are in the big leagues now kiddos! I love how this picture is another one that shows how much longer Luke is than Libby :)

 

Nonna and Pops R

Visiting Nonna and Pops R at their new house in Tyler! Luke looking happy for the nigh drive routine with his lovie! We went out to dinner and it was a huge success compared to prior months :) You loved the scenery and ate your food without being too distracted by the fun! Many years to come for visiting the lake house!

Cheers for Chores

 

 

Weekend chores are a lot more fun with you two in tow! Here you guys are sitting by the back porch watching dad as he mows the lawn :) You love to wave as he goes back and forth and the loud sound doesn't seem to bother you guys. Libby, you like to hold your sippy cup up as if you're cheering. You often grab your brother's cup also!! :) Having a cheering squad for weekend chores makes them much more fun for mom and dad. Thanks for the laughs guys!
