Jordan is 6 months old :)

Oh my how time does fly! We are just getting busier and busier! Jordan is 6 months old now!! She is sitting up alone, rolling all over the place, getting up on all fours and rocking back and forth, eating veggies, interacting with us more, and as I type she is eating her toes! YUM! I love her more and more each day! She has been such a joy to have in our family! When Matt and I went to Miami we heard stories of Taylor even asking, "Where is baby Jordan?" (Jordan is going to go to kindergarten thinking her name is 'baby Jordan'.) So funny how Taylor really doesn't remember life without Jordan! So lucky to have them so close in age! I sure hope they grow up to be best friends...I know I was lucky to have a best friend in my sister!!

4th of July at Lake Cherokee

For the last few years we've spent 4th of July at Lake Cherokee with Gramma and Grampa! This year was no different! It is always great to see all the family that can come for the 4th! Taylor and Jordan both were great the entire trip! Jordan enjoyed all the attention she got being held and Taylor loved swimming, blowing bubbles, coloring pictures, going on boat rides, playing games, and building sand castles at the island.

Fisher Island Fishing Trip

Matt and I were invited to go on a fishing trip with some friends. It ended up being way more than just a fishing trip!! Matt's aunt and uncle picked us up at the Ft. Lauderdale airport and took us to the fairy. We stayed aboard the boat, which was docked at Fisher Island, just off the coast of Miami! It was wonderful!! We enjoyed drinks on the white sandy beaches, fished for sailfish, snorkeled, ate a lot, toured South Beach, and sunned!! Thanks so much to our parents for keeping the kiddos!

Our captain's brother caught this during our last day of fishing. We met their boat on the way into the dock and got to see what they had been working to reel in all day. It was on the news later that night. AMAZING! JAWS!

We caught and released two sailfish so we got to hang the flags upside down!! And, it is good luck to go swimming at the dock after you catch your first sailfish...so the guys voluntarily jumped in for their 'lucky' swim!!
