Swimming Lessons...

Bella had her 2nd week of swimming lesson the end of July with Miss Stephanie. Emily joined her this week. They both made both strides throughout the week with their swimming, going under water and they each even went off the diving board! (that was HUGE for both of them)

We are soo happy that Bella has turned the corner and enjoys being in the water and practicing her swimming skills!

Noblesville Street Party

Saturday we met Amy, Emily and Claire for the Noblesville Street Fair. The kids had lots of fun playing games for tickets and getting prizes with their tickets. They also got their face painted and Scott was running the bounce house. Tucker ,where he works, sponsored this great FREE kids zone! They girls had tons of fun and we didn't spend a dime!



We headed back to their house for pizza and then to take a dip in the pool!
Thanks for having us for a fun night, Warner's!

Friday many of my favorite mama's had a night out.

We checked out a new restaurant in Carmel, Detours and then headed to Champs to listen to Zanna Doo. It was a hot night out but we enjoyed the music, conversation and friendship!

Thanks for planning, Becky!

PERU Circus...

My mom grew up in Peru, IN, circus capitol.

They have an amazing amateur circus. My mom twirled in the circus whiling growing up.

When I was a kid my mom took us numerous times to the circus.

So thought it was time to take Bella, my mom was still off from school for the summer and Rachel had the day off so we made it a girls road trip to Peru to see the circus.

They talent is still amazing for these young kids. They had a girls 7 pyrmid high on the tight rope.

We all enjoyed the night at the circus!!!

Loving the water...

We are trilled with the strides Bella has made in the water this summer! Even over spring break she had a death grip on us while she was in the pool and now she is jumping in on her own without anyone else even in the pool.

Being able to touch has been a huge confidence booster for her! Each new pool we go to she ask it they have a 3ft area!

She still has to work on her swimming...needs to kick a little harder and get her bottom up but she is DOING GREAT!
We are sooo proud of you, Bella!!!!

Hamilton County Fair

Sunday after Daddy took off for his guys 2 day camping trip we hit the Hamilton County 4-H fair, even though it was blazing hot outside!!!

Bella LOVES checking out and even getting to pet some of the animals.!

She also enjoyed eating...ear of corn, corn dog,snow cone and elephant hear.
It was a good day at the fair even though it was a HOT one!!!

Adventure Week

Izabella had a fantastic week at Northview church's Adventure week, especially with her friends, Addie, Emily and Claire!

Each night they had a different bible lesson and I was surprised how much Bella took in and remembered! She enjoyed sharing their stories with us!

She came home with her face painted differently each night, crafts, and lots of music!

Play Group Outside

Thursday we had play group at our house!

It was going to be a perfect day to be outside, so we set up... the hop scotch splash mat, sprinkler, pool, bubbles, chalk and sand box for the kids to enjoy playing outside!

We also grilled some hot dogs for everyone!

I love having Bella friends over to play but I honestly love their mama's and adult conversation just as much!!!
