Josie's 1st food

Yeah Josie graduated from bottle,cereal to sweet potatoes today! At first it was so sad she cried big tears when she tried it,but after a few licks she couldn't get enough! She ate a whole little container of one and then finished it off with the bottle! Wow! Nicely done!

ZOO TODAY

Nothing too exciting just thought we'd stay busy while everyone is well! The Lightle's headed out to the Zoo today and the weather was perfect! It was actually cool when we got there @ 10 a.m.,but we left on the light rain note about 1 p.m!
It was actually Josie's second time and she is only 5 months!
We got a membership;so it is nice we pick and choose a little each time!
Today we went thur Rivers Edge which really don't know why we bothered! Well pretty much the only animals out were the Elephants;that was cool we saw 4 up close!
Then we went to the Sea lion show, had lunch aat the Riverside Cafe because Genevieve had a coupon for a FREE lunch for her birthday,then we rode the ZOO (Genevieve was the one on back to say ALL ABOARD) and ended with the gift shop! Dad's a sucker Genevieve says Dad I'm gonna get this monkey and a pack of animals;HOW ABOUT THAT!(and she gives him a thumbs up) hehe she got two of course!
We had some good family time!
I highly suggest looking into the membership thing because parking alone is normally $10,but we get 6 times Free just on that!

Farmers Market/ Arch

Today after my interview ;we took the kids to the Soulard Market! We've never been and let's just say we saved a little money to eat well! They have it all! I highly reccommend the trip down!
Then we stopped by the Arch to see the floods! Just awful! Genevieve doesn't remember seeing the Arch up close so she enjoyed that while snacking on the fruits from the market! She loved the strwaberries and cherries best!
Later after naps we our headed to Quinny's house for a BBQ and to say by to the Shubert's again!(headed back to there new home in Tenn.)

Busy Girls

Well June 26th Jayson was off so we took the girls bowling @ the aesome SMOKE FREE Brunswick bowling in S. Peters! It was our second time there,but this time Genevieve had her very own SCOOBY DOO ball from PaPa! Yes the kids on the other side wanted it too!
She'll probably be bowling in Daddy's league soon!
Then we had double check up for both girls with Dr. Davis!
Poor Josie had 4 shots,but Vive none! Vive weighed in @ 35 age 3! Josie 16.6 @ age 5 months! My girls like to eat like mom! hehe!
Later after naps we met up w/ Christy,Jacob,Alex and the Stewarts @ ChuckE Cheese;since Christy was in town!

Music Class

Well we went to our Summer session to Gateway Music Together back @ the BSKI location! Genevieve remembers all of these songs and sings and dances along! Josie is sitting up with help @ 5 months and ready to dance or have her bottle and relax! We all love music class,the music,instruments,but the thing that is te best is that the teacher Ms. Holly is so real! She is super talented!
If anyone wants info on the class I'd be happy to share! It is one of the best choices I've made for my family;even Daddy enjoys!

Bath Time

I'm so proud my girls took their first bath together in the tub! It was so sweet! Genevieve being 3 and Josie 4 months and happy mom saving water! Of course later we went swimming in our kiddie pool! So much for saving water?

The Lightle's
