Long time no blog!

So I've been wanting to blog again for so long now, but life gets a bit busier when you have a baby around! I want to keep doing this because it will be so great to have a journal of our lives to look back on, and also hopefully our families will still enjoy keeping up with what is going on with us. There is no way to write about everything that has happened in the last 4 months, but I will hit some of the highlights! Life is a bit crazier now, but we are loving Reese so much and she is a lot of fun. I absolutely cannot believe she is almost 5 months old! It is ridiculous how fast time flies by and we are trying to enjoy every moment.

We got to go to a Buffalo Bisons (minor league baseball) game and I was so excited. A friend from church was playing in a band before the game and he got us free tickets. It was fun and Reese enjoyed her first baseball game!

We have been loving all the warm weather we have had so far, and we love to sit out on our balcony.

Reese is really starting to love her jumparoo! (Thanks to Jennifer and Alex for lending it to us!)

In June we had Reese's dedication at Restoration Church. It was a really special time where we committed ourselves to raising Reese well and to teach her and show her Jesus in our lives, and the church family committed to praying for us and supporting us in that.

As you can see she screamed during the entire prayer... bless her little heart, she was sick that day, had a fever, and didn't feel well at all. She never cries during church and they always say she is perfect in the nursery, so of all mornings to have her dedication this was probably not the best one! She actually projectile vomited in the car on the way to church ALL OVER her dress and I (first time parent) did not bring a back up - yikes. So when we got there, I stripped her down and my great friend Gina (Pastor Dan's wife) took her dress to the bathroom and washed it out in the sink and dried it under the hand dryer! It all worked out in the end, but it was a bit of a stressful morning!

Here is our little fam after church:

On Wes's first Father's Day he just wanted the three of us to go to dinner, so we walked down to a restaurant at the end of our street and ate at their outside tables because it was a great evening.

Bathtime is so much fun with all her hair to play with!

June 26th was our 10 year dating anniversary! So we decided to go spend the day in Erie, PA so we could eat at Chick-fil-a! We had a fun day walking around the mall and then a delicious supper at Chick-fil-a. Wes surprised me with flowers he had ordered and had delivered there - it was so sweet!!

Reese wore her Auburn outfit in honor of where it all began 10 years ago!

Wes has been playing a good bit recently, and Reese and I are his groupies. Here he is playing at a really cute coffee place outside on July 3rd.

We walked to Delaware Park one beautiful day recently and enjoyed sitting by the lake for a while.

Reese had her first pigtails at 4.5 months old! Can you even believe it?! It's the cutest thing ever.

And I will leave you with a picture of the most beautiful little baby girl in the world.
