Lia Sophia

I am excited to announce that I have started my own business! As of Monday, July 27th, I have joined the Lia Sophia sales team. I started wearing their jewelry about 2 years ago and love every piece. So I have decided to take it a step further and sell it myself.

I am having a girls' night / LS kick off party at the end of August, and would love to start booking parties as soon as September. If you are interested in hosting a party and earning FREE jewelry, just let me know. The parties are a lot of fun and a great way to get the girls together!

So get out your calendars and pick a day you'd like to start shopping - for FREE.

Here is a link to their website for a sneak preview.

Fun Comparisons And A Couple Others...

Here are a few new pictures to share of our kiddos.

I tried putting Kevin in the Bumbo seat a couple days ago because at 2 mo his neck is already strong enough to hold his head for a little while. I didn't put Claire in the bumbo till about 5 mo. So here is a fun little comparison of our babies first bumbo experience...and a few others too.

Claire's first time in her bumbo.

Kevin's first time in his bumbo.


I think I may have a thumb sucker...


After Claire's nap, she likes to watch "The Big Comfy Couch"...I think Kevin might like it too mamaw :)


One last comparison...I just love to look back and see how they change. Claire loves her frog towell. Here she is when she was a "baby" and still today she loves being wrapped up in it after bathtime.


two years later...

Bathtime For Bubba

Kevin LOVES bathtime, AKA his spa treatments. If he's ever having a rough day, this always calm him down.


We begin with the hair wash


Then on to the bubble soak - soft music is playing in the background...actually it's just mommy singing to him, but who doesn't love the sound of their mother's voice :)

Love the booty!

Aahhh - all better!

4th Of July

This 4th of July was another great one! We started the day with a parade in Sheridan, IN (where much of Tony's family lives) and then off to Aunt Patty's for lunch. We then came home for naps and to get ready for the Noblesville Independance Day Celebrations, but got rained out. So we stayed home and watched movies. However, we could see a few neighborhood fireworks from our back deck. Tony got Claire out of bed to show her and the next day she kept asking to see the "colored stars" outside.

On a different and more exciting note, my brother Jon and his wife Shannon had their baby on the 4th of July! That was her due date!! Baby Jack Joseph Zajicek was delivered at 12:34 PM weighing in at 8lb 15oz. Mommy and baby are doing well and just got home this afternoon. So once they get settled in for a few days, we'll bring them dinner and get some pictures to share of their new little one.

But until then, here are a few patriotic shots of our day.

Happy Birthday Meadow Grace!

This past weekend we enjoyed a Saturday in Louisville, KY. Oh how I miss you blue grass state :) Anyways, it was our little Meadow's 5th birthday. She celebrated with a horse themed party. It was a blast as always. There was a huge blow up water slide and pool along with a horse race lead by big daddy Chuck, pizza, cake and of course presents and wonderful friends.

Splash Park With Cousins

Tuesday, Claire enjoyed a day with a few cousins at a splash park in Carmel, IN. They enjoyed swings, slides and of course water to run and splash in. We packed a lunch and enjoyed a fun filled day with family! Tony's office is about 5 minutes away from the park, so he even got to stop by over his lunch hour. Thank you mamaw and Baird girls for coordinating this!

Happy Father's Day!

Tony -

Where do I begin? You are the sweetest dad in the world. From changing poopy diapers and wiping poopy bottoms to singing princess Ariel songs and dancing around to "Rubber Ducking"...Your children don't know how great they've got it already! When you take those little hands at the dinner table and pray for their future salvation - it makes my heart sing with praise to our heavenly Father for the amazing man He has blessed our family with. Thank you for working so hard to lead, provide and protect our little miracles. It makes me fall in love with you even more each day.

(love, the mother of your children - ha)
