Layla's New Playhouse!!

It was so nice of Grammy and Pop to get Layla her first Playhouse with a slide. She absolutely Loves it!! Thank you so much...XOXO! 

Layla must go up and down the slide 50 times a day. It has also been a big hit with Layla's friends next door, Molly and Aiden!

Playdate with Nate!!!

My friend Melissa and Layla's friend Nate came over to play!!! Layla absolutely adores Nate!! She loves to play with him. They are just too cute together!

Mel takes great photos of the kids and since our camera is still getting fixed it was so nice of her to email these wonderful pictures to us!

 I love this collage that Mel made!

We had a great time during our visit from Layla's Aunt Lisa and cousins!! We celebrated Nicholas's 10th birthday and Mommy's 32nd! We visited many parks, went to the zoo, played in our yard, among other things!! It was so nice of them to drive all the way from Wisconsin!! Layla loves to play and laugh with her cousins. She just absolutely loves them:-)
