18 Months Old!

Charlotte kept handing me bows to put in her hair. Remind you of anyone? That's right - Uncle Phil who would request the same thing of me.

I had been feeling like our yard wasn't too exciting for her. For her 18th month birthday, I scored this slide structure at a local garage sale for her which she is enjoying thoroughly. It looked terrible when I bought it since it was all in pieces and very dirty, but I think it came together nicely after a good hose-down and construction job.

She only stayed in the nursery at church for about 5 minutes today... but collapsed and fell asleep on my lap due to sheer exhaustion. I'm counting down until we get a new meeting time...

Plano Balloon Festival

One of the balloons had a crash landing.

Not really - that's how they blow them up.
