Our Little Fish

Sarah has always enjoyed the water, but this summer she seems to have become a fish right before our very eyes. She seems to have no fear when it comes to getting in and even loves going off the diving board at the pool. In fact, every now and then you'll hear her shout "Cannonball" before taking off (of course she has no clue what this means)! Her confidence in the water is growing and I certainly can't complain about the new way to beat the heat! :-)

Here are a few pics of her at the pool. Enjoy!


So cute with her Ariel goggles.

Loving every minute of it!

June Pics

My apologies for not getting recent pictures up sooner, but June was a fun & busy month for us so I'm just now getting around to posting these. Please take a minute to check out the June slide show on the right which includes pics from our trip to Virginia, Kalahari - an indoor waterpark, and of course Father's Day! Enjoy!

Happy Father's Day Daddy!

Happy Father's Day to the best Daddy in the world!
I Love You!

xoxo,
Sarah

Let Us Hear From You...

As many of you know, we've decided to once again be surprised with the gender of little Noto #2 and with roughly 8 weeks to go, the suspense is starting to get to us. :-) So, in an effort to pass the time and have some fun, we've decided to see what everyone else thinks our newest addition will be. If interested, please take a minute and vote on our "Baby Poll" on the right-hand side of the page. :-)

A cute story

This morning when I went to get Sarah up for school, I could hear her playing with her Princess phone when I got to her room. This phone is cute and has recorded messages from the different Princesses inviting you to a tea party, the royal ball, etc. Sarah was laying in her bed playing with it when I opened the door. I laughed to myself and asked her if she had missed a call. Without missing a beat she told me, "yes, I missed 2 calls. One from Snow White & one from Belle while I was sleeping." Seriously, what do you say in response to something like that? :-)

Another First...

Sarah has moved into the 3 year old room at her pre-school and today was her first Show & Tell! She was very excited to get to school today and show all of her friends her toy...her Beat Box Bunny! :-) Aunt Patty & Uncle Scott gave this bunny to Sarah awhile ago, but it was the first (and only) toy she even considered taking with her today. He's actually really cute and plays a song when you push his hand. Sarah likes this because she loves to dance every time he starts playing. :-) I can't wait to hear how the whole thing went!

Some Slip-N-Slide Fun

It's been rather hot here in Virginia so we decided to let Sarah take her new slip-n-slide for a test run. This was her first time doing one of these so it took her a few minutes to figure things out, but once she realized it was more fun to slide down rather than run down it, she did great. Of course, I was convinced we would be taking a trip to the ER before it was over, but I'm happy to report she did great and was injury free. :-)

Sorry Daddy, but Sarah is also sporting her first bikini! It was so cute! :-)

Checking things out.

Getting going...

Don't worry, we were able to capture the whole thing on video. Enjoy!
