Half-way to One!

So life has been gotten busier and busier as the days grow hotter. We've had a few occassions that I think should be shared. On June 18th, Jason was raised as a freemason. Congratulations Babe! I've tried to get him to show me the secret handshake thingy I've heard of, but he said he'd have to kill me if he showed me. Oh well. On that same day, our little Julia hit the 6 month mark. The time is just flying by! She is becoming more independent with each passing day, but still loves the chance to be a snuggle-bunny. We have finally come close to completing work on the new addition at the shore. Only a few more minor things to do and we'll be all set. Oh, and our air conditioners died. Yes, plural. We have dual zones and both went....ouch, that was a nasty $10,000 hit in the wallet. Anyway, here are some photo updates for you all. Also, I'm including our portraits ... the family and Julia alone. My mom thinks Julia should be a baby model. I'm thinking I might look into it and keep the $$$ for her college account. Of course, we're all biased in thinking she's gorgeous, so impartial opinions would be great!! Thanks.

We're still waiting for those teeth to come in, but as you can see...she'll eat anything!

The addition to the shore. We expanded the deck, put on the new room, laid stone, new lights, etc.

Getting ready for her first swim!

Julia's first swim! She had fun with Grammy!

Here she is in her froggy cover up after her swim.

Sometimes she needs a little encouragement, but she holds her own bottle.

Ok, that is just one cute kid!
