Happy Birthday America and Freedom....now with babies!

We had the best fourth of July EVAH!

It started out on the morning of the 4th. Our neighborhood had a parade. Complete with Sousa march music and all the young parents and the old residents. We even had a 1928 Chevy pulling up the rear honking the slow pokes to move it. The kind of thing that pre-parenthood I would have thought was totally dumb. But now it's pretty cool.


As you can see, we brought the dog. Maggie had a great time. The kids mostly slept, but we got pictures to remind them how much fun they had.



Here's Nolan loving on his doggie.. He loves his doggie. Maggie, she's not so sure yet.




After the parade, we went to a pool party out in McKinney. Yahhh! Pool! The kids hadn't ever been in a big swimming pool before. Lilly got a nice, calm introduction into pool life. I think overprotective parents like us have really nice thoughts about how to introduce children into the water. Quick dips, reassuring holding, laughing, all that stuff. Not my honeybunny! She thought it'd be awesome to take a misstep in the pool and fall into the water with Lilly. Lilly loved it. Thought it was great. She's definitely our wild child. The wife, on the other hand, thought she might have scarred the child for good. Turns out it wasn't the child she scarred, but rather the inside of her foot, which she cut on the pool. She wrenched her knee too. (EDIT -- it turns out that the wife actually tore her MCL in the fall. Opps!). But the kiddo is just fine. Lilly loved the pool!



Here she is doing her Lilly dance! She's our dancing queen.




Lilly's dancing might be more proof of her tardedness





Nolan also had a great time in the pool, although his experience was less dangerous. He rocked the fauxhawk, because he's that awesome.

Here he is in his pool boat. That face he's making is part of his new routine where he sucks on his cheeks and makes a "fish face". He's just now discovering his lips or something. Whatever it is, it's just cute.

Our first fourth of July with the kids was awesome!
