Fun with Friends

The past few weeks we have had some friends from Tallahassee stay with us! It was fun getting Laila together with a few of her first little friends! It's also been fun seeing Laila interact with other babies. It is so cute how she just sits back and takes it all in at first but then she gets excited and starts playing! Her little personality is shining through more and more each day!

Laila's first friend that stayed with us is Caroline. Caroline is also a June bug, born just 2 weeks after Laila. She is such a doll with her bright blue eyes and big smile. She is the sweetest baby and so happy and active! It was so cute to see her crawling and pulling up on everything. The girls had a great time together and so did their Mommies! It was so wonderful catching up and getting the girls together again Sarah! Can't wait to see you guys again soon!


Caroline and Laila


So excited!






Oops!!!


The Garcia family also came for a little visit with their adorable son Gabe. He is just over a 1 and 1/2 years old and is one of the cutest little boys I've ever seen! He is definitely all boy, and as Shannon and EJ told us, he loves wrestling and is very active as well! He was so sweet with Laila though, handing her toys and giving her hugs! He is going to be a great big brother to his little sister who is due to arrive in July! Can't wait to see you guys again soon too!


Laila loved Gabe's shoes and kept trying to untie his shoelaces!


Sharing toys....so sweet!

Having fun playing with Aunt Holly's dog, Scooter!


Before they left Gabe went to give Laila a hug and Shannon reminded him to be gentle, so he laid his head on her chest! SO cute!


Below is a picture of Laila and Isaac, who get to see each other a lot more often now that we've moved back closer. They were both enjoying some cheerios while we were waiting on our food after church. Every one in the restaurant was probably wondering why I was taking a picture...I guess I just love how cute they are together!




We took the pictures below while enjoying another beautiful afternoon at Lake Eola! Laila loves watching the birds and ducks! Check out the little video I posted too of her having a good time with Daddy and Mommy at the park!
