More lake fun!

Last weekend, we headed back up to the lake. Marleigh is a true lake bum. She fell asleep on the boat, and while I was rocking her in the water. She loves it so much.








We're headed to Florence this weekend for a Rod Run in memory of Marc's cousin, Troy. It will be good to see some of the family!

Next weekend we head back to the lake with some friends. The weekend after that, we will be in Colby for Marc's family reunion. That will be 5 weekends in a row that we won't be home. I love being home, but we've been having so much fun this summer! After NEVER being able to go anywhere last summer, it is a nice change of pace. It is awesome just to be able to take Marleigh outside and play in the yard.

We actually counted the other night. Between our traveling and work, Marc is going to be gone overnight for 35 nights in the next 4 months! That's a lot of hotel time! :(

Marleigh is changing so fast. She has been swimming about every afternoon in her pool. I love watching her as she gets more brave in the water. She stands in her pool and jumps. Then she'll fall and laugh at herself. Marleigh is now learning how to share. I'll ask her for her bink, and she'll take it out of her mouth and hand it to me. She also loves to feed her mama. Anytime we're snacking on cheerios or crackers, she wants to share with me. She'll put one in her mouth, then one in mine. Her newest obsession is her shoes. If she sees them, then she HAS to wear them. She toddles around in them all day if we let her. She still is only taking a few steps on her own, but she's started just standing up in the middle of living room (and expecting everyone to applaud). She's saying more words and understanding even more. Over the last week, Marleigh has started calling my mom "Gigi". Of course she still says "papa" and "dada" all the time. One of her other words is "DJ". Marleigh loves Jenni's boys so much and DJ's name is probably the easiest for her to say. As soon as he walks in a room, she says, "DJ" in her cute little munchkin voice. Oh, I could go on and on and on and on..... but you get the idea! :)
