Such a little helper.

Just another day at Target.

I got toothpaste and floss in the basket.

Baker Nathan


Can you guess what I'm covered in?


Cocoa powder!


And I thought it would be fun to dump the entire container in the basement.

Mommy and Daddy were not amused...I'm in time out for a month.

Girly Time

Another day of softball.

Thirsty.

Hydrated and ready to cheer for Daddy.

On the Farm

Saturday was Mommy and Nathan bonding time. We spent it with Aunt Shanel and Sydney at a farm in Bluemont. We picked peaches, greenbeans and plums. It was fun to be a farmer for one day.


Looking for gems and gold.


Looking at some farm animals.


Bouncing on the open moon bounce.

This was my favorite part...Mommy had to drag me off the moon bounce so we could go to the orchard.

I found a chess game on the way to the hayride.

Finally on the hayride (minus the hay) with Sydney and Aunt Shanel.

I came in handy for the Mommy.

Got a peach all by myself.

Sydney and her peach.

Our bags full of peaches, greenbeans and plums (so busy picking plums we didn't get pictures).

Sydney and I playing with a tin rooster.

Buckle up! On the mooooooooo train.

Being a farmer is exhausting.

Happy Birthday America!

Mommy, Daddy, Emerson and I kicked off our July 4th celebration with a parade in the City of Fairfax.

It's Thomas the Train!

Mr. Dimples.

I told Mommy that Thomas was my favorite part of the parade.

Afternoon Play and Ice Cream

We ran into Anna, Sophie, Tia and Grandma Rodriguez at the parade. So we had a pizza lunch , then played in GR's backyard and had frozen custard at Woody's.
