Work It

Per Oma's request... a new blog entry! For a couple of months now Avery and I have been working out with a bunch of awesome Moms in the mornings. We cruise around Balboa Park and generally attempt to recapture our pre-kid figures! :) It gets us going on a positive note and Avery loves the interaction. No makeup, no men, no treadmills or intimidating iron. Just the sweet breeze on my face, sun on my back, and a nap for Miss A.

Coes in Carolina

Last week was spent in the Outer Banks of North Carolina with the Coe family - my dad's siblings and my cousins. We had so much fun catching up with family not seen in over 6 years -volleyball on the beach, playing games, big meals, and celebrating a couple birthdays. I even debuted the post-baby-bikini-body!!! At only 9 months old, Avery has dipped her toes in both the Atlantic & Pacific, traveled to/through 10 states, and met nearly all her extended and very extended family!

Independence Weekend in Ohio

Summer = Strawberries

A Day for Dad

Since Matt is traveling this weekend, we celebrated earlier with new clothes (no ties!), dinner at Outback and a movie rental. Matt has settled into fatherhood nicely and Avery's face lights up each time he returns home. She absolutely adores her Daddy!

Happy 1st Father's Day Handsome!!!

Also - a big hug to both our Dads! We are better people because of your love, guidance, discipline and all around fabulousity!
