Fun in the Sun!

Greetings! This summer is zipping right by!
For the Harmony Grove (Lodi) household, it has been the week of sickness. Little L has a double ear infection, Mom has a sinus infection & possibly strep throat (awaiting results), and now Dad is getting a sore throat! Good thing for Amoxicillin! I know, I know, it's better that she get sick now rather than when she starts kindergarten, but why do M&D need to be sick all the time too??? Oh yeah, this is a new strain of all the bugs we had when we were growing up. Good grief!
This picture was taken a couple of weeks ago. She is such a little beach baby. She loves the outdoors, the water, and her daddy too!


We went to the Portage Fair a couple of weekends ago. Lexie enjoyed seeing all the animals, but really wanted to ride the rides. (This need for speed is starting too early! I don't think they make helmets that would fit her yet!)


Lexie rode the car all by herself! She did amazing well for being all alone! She made it 4 or 5 laps before realizing she was all by herself without the comfort of mommy and daddy. (What the heck was I thinking!?!?!? She's only 14 months old and I let her go on a ride by herself? I ended up being emotional for all 5 laps! ) The little car moved so much faster than I expected, the seatbelt was super loose - she could step right over and out, and the bumps were so big!!! Sniff, sniff. So much for the first born being overly protected. My guess is that future baby number 2 will not get to be so independent so early!!!
