End of Summer Indiana Trip
At the end of summer, everyone made one last trip to Indiana to get together and celebrate Papa Joe’s birthday. Jacquie, Linda and Meredith stayed at house with Kate, Kelly, baby Shelby, Gabe, Lily and me. It was a full house!
We swam nearly every day. Gabe loves the pool and luckily, Kate was there to play lots with him (I was usually in charge of keeping Lily from crawling headfirst into the pool!). He still talks about the giant inflatable shark and how much fun it was.
Baby Shelby (although he’s not really a baby – I need to start calling him something new!) is such a toddler now, with his own personality. He’s so driven and determined – when he wants something – he gets focused on it and that’s just what he’s going to do. He loves playing with the vacuum – especially the retractable cord. I snapped this picture after I asked him if we were done playing with it (obviously not!).
We also got some very good news from both Kate and Kelly. There will be lots of kiddies at the house Christmas 2011! Yay!
