We took Molly to the duck pond for the first time :) She loved it and was so amazed by the ducks that she would forget to toss them the bread. Molly feeding the ducks for the first time :) She has a good arm! Daddy and his girl - so sweet!

Sneak Peak at Pidge Family Pics!!!

Hi all! John and I and his family went up to Lake Tahoe for a few days and while we were there we had a friend of mine photograph all of us.

Fun Summer Times . . .

It's been a bit since we've put up pictures, so a lot has been going on. There are a ton of fun Molly pictures. She is almost 17 months now and just funny as ever! She loves to play outside in the water or dirt :) and is just getting more fun as she gets older! The last few weeks have been busy, we went to San Diego for a few days for Johnny's long time friend's wedding! It was a great time and we got to spend time with lot's of people we don't get to see a lot. Then we went up North the next weekend for Johnny's sisters 40th b-day!!! So enjoy all the fun shots from our adventures. Molly and Sara at Mol's new water table!

She thinks she's a baby that will fit in that cradle - not gonna happen :)

"Super Molly!!!"

She loves her baby stroller - pushes it everywhere!

Such a big girl now - eating her Peanut butter and Jelly!
