July catch-up

I'm still behind, but getting closer!  Here are some fun times from July:

 Rory taking a bath in Grandma's sink

 Fun in the sprinkler at Grandma and Grandpa's house

 Rosie and Taea walking to the Fourth of July parade in Pittsfield

 

 Taking a break from dancing to enjoy the parade floats

 

 Our little firecracker!

 Happy Fourth of July!

Dr. Rosie taking Rory's blood pressure.

Rosie giving Rory a shot, while he takes his own temperature, orally...  ;)

Black raspberries from our backyard! Yum!!

I had fun picking raspberries to bring home from a local farm.  Rosie enjoyed picking them, but they never seemed to make it to the buckets...  :)

Rory loves his toes so much that he fell asleep holding them!

Happy boy, sitting all by himself

Playing in the doctor's office while we waited to meet with the cardiologist at our last appointment.  We had great news: Rory's aneurisms are shrinking!  Next appointment is at the end of August.

 Happy Birthday, Steve!  We celebrated at home with a bacon-lattice apple pie!  It was sooo good, we're definitely going to have to make it again sometime soon!!
