Busy Busy Busy

Ruthie has been really busy this past week. She took her first trip to the beach, which I need to do a post about. Also, she has cut 2 teeth on top. Then, to top it all off, she walked for the first time yesterday afternoon. I have included a video of her walking. We were so excited! I promise I am going to get the Destin post done soon

ISR Success!

Ruthie has been taking infant survival swimming class. She got the floating down pretty quick. However, at the end of last week she started getting the roll over part. I am happy to say that she has mastered it. I am so proud of her. I have included a couple of videos to show what she has learned.

4th of July Weekend

I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend. We sure did. We went to the cabin on Friday and spent the day watching Ruthie splash in her pool, riding the boat, and cooking out with friends.

Ruthie ready for her first ever boat ride. She seemed to enjoy it. She didn't care too much for the life jacket at times, but that is to be expected
On Saturday, we loaded and headed to Aunt Lori's house for the annual 4th of July parade. This was Ruthie's first appearance. She did so good. I was a little nervous about her staying put for that long, but I think she was entertained by it all

We then headed back to the cabin for more boat riding and a cook out with friends and family. Pop E even let Ruthie drive the boat. I didn't have my camera for some reason, but it was too funny. We made 2 complete circles in the middle of the lake. We finished the night off with a firework show that the lake does each year. All in all it was a wonderful holiday weekend spent with great friends and family
