Could Zachary be any more of a peanut?


Jenna has been loving holding him!

Zachary's baptism

We had the most beautiful day for Zachary's baptism! (Or his baptized-birthday- as Jenna called it that morning!) It was wonderful to have family and friends with us. And Zachary was super cute! And he really paid attention and interacted in his ceremony. Jenna and her friend Gabby got to help hold the oil for Father as he blessed and applied it on Zachary's chest and forehead. It was really great and perfect! We are very Blessed!

Here he is afterwards with his new baptism toys!

Lake house fun!

Scott's parents have a lake house that we are very lucky to enjoy! Jenna was excited to bring her fishing pole out and give it a try. She was practicing before we left and is a pro at casting and reeling! We let her put it in the water a couple of times- but she was just as happy to do it on-land. She loves to be just like her uncle Mikey!

Reeling in a big one!


Zachary enjoyed the outdoors too!

Swim class complete!

Jenna just finished her first year of swim lessons! And I must say that she definitely earns the award for the most improved! (if they gave one!) She did so good! She is laying back in the water, blowing bubbles and putting her face in. She was practicing in the bath last night and had her head under for about 5 seconds! I was ready to go in after her!! It has been really nice and making the summer great fun!

She is in the purple suit. This was during lessons- having some fun in the mushroom- or the "marshmallow" as she calls it.


Her first report card. We are very proud!

4th of July

We had a great 4th! We hope everyone reading this did too! We went to 3 sets of fireworks the last set was this weekend. Zachary seemed to be a big fan! His eyes were big and bright through them! It has been a really great summer. It is going by way to fast! We are trying to savor up every minute!

Happy 4th!


Zachary waking up from an outside nap.


We went to our first 4th of July Parade- this is all of Jenna's loot!


This is Zach's latest pose- hand in mouth and grabbing his foot- he loves the taste of his hands... silly boy!

Jenna has been taking swim lessons and is having a great time. We have been enjoying going to the pool with some new friends and just hanging out around our town. We are looking forward to a visit down to my parents' here in the next couple of weeks and then we are off for a vacation in Kentucky with family. Scott is looking forward to some time off too. We are looking forward to it for him also. Thanks for checking in!
