June Video and Pictures!

 Brynn and Adrienne's birthday party was technically July 1, but I still wanted it to be a part of this blog entry for our June birthday girls!  Enjoy!

Girls didn't want their picture taken (surprised?) Happy Father's Day! 

Playing Dinosaur Train

Who didn't want their picture taken in this one?

Brynn:
-4 years old!  She looks so much older now!  She really loved the honor and attention that comes with a birthday this year :)
-Enjoying her first real summer break off school
-Absolutely loves water balloons

Went to the local dairy farm for her birthday!

Birthday doughnut - her favorite!

Adrienne:
-2 years old!
-still calls me "Bobby," though she's starting to say Mommy about 50% of the time.  She says mama, mom, and MomMom just fine though!  When she's saying goodnight she says, "Night night, Bobby!"
-saying too many new words to list, but a favorite phrase of hers is when she's saying goodbye to someone... "Bye bye!  See you soon!"
-Does not like the summer heat at all.  Usually within 15 minutes her cheeks start getting flushed and her sweaty bangs start sticking to her face and she'll say, "Go inside?"  I'm all too happy to follow her inside to the air conditioning while Daddy and big sister sweat it out :)

After having the big girl bed unused next to the crib in her room for 6 weeks, we made the decision to take the crib down.  She did wonderful with the transition and we've only caught her sleeping on the floor a couple of times :)

Sneaking a sip of Mommy's drink.

Phillips Family Reunion:  Ben's mom's family had a reunion this past weekend in KY!  We were able to make the trip down from OH while we were in town.  The pool really helped cool everyone off from the 105 degree temperature outside.  It was really great to see everyone!

Can you find us?

Adrienne is becoming much more confident in the pool!

Our little fish!

Birthday Party:  Grandma and Grandpa were great hosts for the girls' birthday party in Mason.  It's so much easier to have the party there since all of our family is in OH and KY.  The picnic birthday theme was great for the combination 4th of July party.  Thank you to everyone who made the girls party so special!

Brynn's watermelon cake

Adrienne's picnic cupcakes!

I absolutely love this picture!

Post-meltdown.  Happy to have some alone time with her cupcake ;)

Really enjoying her watermelon cake!

Backyard Project: We are officially finished with all landscaping and big yard projects!  Now only a few yearly maintenance things to complete, then we can really enjoy our summer.
