recent reads...

we have been having the hardest time coming up with a name for baby girl! everything we like has already been taken or sounds too similar to the names we've already used. so frustrating! and the books aren't really helping! any suggestions??

dan and i both read this book recently...

this has been on my "to read" list for a long time and i finally got around to it. it is definitely worth reading.

4th of July

we had a wonderful 4th of July! we spent the day relaxing, swimming, eating lots of good food, and watching fireworks at the park with my parents. we missed all the family that couldn't be there!

i made these yummy dark chocolate baby cakes over the weekend for an early 4th of july treat. they were gone in a day!

this was the first year that Evan really enjoyed the fireworks! he was so amazed. the next day he kept talking about fireworks and wanted to see them again :)

strawberry lemonade popsicles

recipe found here. these are sooo delish and refreshing! i went a little heavy on the lemon layer, but you can layer it however you like.
