July! The month we've been anticipating since October!
It did not disappoint! Thank you to all who contributed to a wonderful month!
Enjoying a day at the lake! It's truly a happy place for her! She's noteably calm and loves to paddle around inspecting and playing. Warms my mom heart :)
Happy Birthday to Grandma Taylor!
New room for our big girl! She moved over like a champ!
I have a twin great aunt and uncle who turned 100 in June. On July 3rd, he was honored to throw out the first pitch at the Whitecaps.
Happy Fourth of July!!
Friday night food trucks in the park followed by ice cream at Jersey Junction - yum!
I get by with a little help from my friends! I'm so thankful for all the helping hands before and after our bundle of joy arrived.
Cow Appreciation Day for breakfast!
Followed by some browsing and dog riding - giddy up!
We attempted to Build-a-Bear, but ended up visiting the Oscar Mayer Weinermobile instead!
Happy Birthday to Grandpa and dad!! We were hoping to add a third generation birthday to this day, but no dice. Instead we ate cake and opened presents!
Floating on Fancy the flamingo! and cooling off in our neighbor's pool!
Family outing to the Gardens. I'm here to tell you, walking apparently does not induce labor!
The last picture of our only child and as a family of three.
Introducing Gabriel Phillip

7lbs. 2oz. - 20.5 inches
Big sister was his first visitor. She was a little unsure but warmed up quickly.
Say Mama! Say Dada!
Meeting his family and friends!
So many neighbors stopped me prior to Gabe's arrival and asked that I do something so that everyone would know when the baby came and what we had. It's a BOY!
A whole new look for us :)
Loved. SO loved.
Big sister takes her job VERY seriously.
Blue hat and booties!
Heading home! It's all fun and games until your hat slides over your face - whoops!
Ahhh home.
Meeting Great Grandma!
Holding, kissing, loving. Repeat.
Bed hopping!
Everyone's smitten around here
First visit to the Dr - looking good Mr. G!
Our smiley babes :)
We rounded out the month with an outing to the Farmer's Market and lunch with Grammie!
This was a month I wont soon forget.
Adding baby Gabe has already made us feel more complete and we're so thankful for his safe arrival!
