Tatum

We also got to watch my cousin Melissa's little girl, Tatum, one night. I said we were busy in June. I wasn't kidding. At work and at home! Anyway, we had a blast. Tautm just loved watching Becky the whole time and was pretty sad when Becky went to bed. She wasn't sure she really wanted to just be with Al and I. She has the cutest hair that sticks straight up. She was hilarious! I think she looks a lot like my cousin Melissa, so it was a little weird to be rocking her and look down. I don't remember when Melissa was that little, but I used to baby-sit her at a fairly young age, so it made me feel slightly old. And all these babies sure are giving me baby fever! Maybe one of these days there will be another little Johnson running around. Until then, I guess I will just be glad that I don't have to haul a diaper bag everywhere I go and keep extra diapers in the car! It is so amazing how once your child is potty-trained, you almost feel naked every time you leave the house because you don't have to take anything with you!
So this is all my posting for tonight. I think you're up to July. That's pretty good for me. Only one month behind. I'll try to get more updated soon. I hate to put it all on at once, though, because I know some of you like to look every single day!

Al's first motorcycle ride

We went to visit some friends and their new baby one Friday night in June. I didn't get any picutres of their new little girl, but I did get Danielle to snap a few pictures of Al on his first motorcycle ride. (she's an avid scrapbooker too, obviously!) Anyway, it was pretty funny to see him on such a little bike, but he had fun!

Isabelle Ann Durbin

We got to watch Isabelle, Holly's little girl, for a couple nights while Holly was working overnights and Daniel was out of town. It sure was fun to watch her. Becky and I had a blast! (I even skipped volleyball to help Holly out. Al enjoyed her the second night too.) Holly called me while she was at work and asked if I could take a couple pictures because it was Isabelle's first overnight. I said to her, "Like I haven't already!" So here are a few of them. What a cutie!

Flag Fest Weekend

Okay. First of all, I realize it has been a while since I posted. That's how crazy it's been around here. So here are a few pics from Flag Fest Weekend in Spencer. Yes, I realize it was over a month ago, but these are some of the ones I promised I would get posted. Al and I took Becky and Bode for the weekend to spend some time with Grandpa and Grandma. Here are a few of the highlights!

I just love ice cream faces!

What a couple silly kids! We had a great weekend though, and were glad we got to spend some special time with Bode.
