Random pics from June

Mom brought Shae this dress from Mexico. and yes, she does LOVE to drum :)

She put this "bairbow" in her hair herself and was very proud. 
Changing her baby's diaper
This is her new favorite face to make. What's funny is that we didn't even show her how to do it she just did it herself. She's really into sunglasses lately and mostly likes them on her head (she says it's like Daddy)

Cadence's Mad Photography Skills

Lately one of Cadence's favorite things to do is to grab the camera and take some pictures herself. Chris turned on the camera today and there were about 20 extra pictures that had to be the work of Cadence. Then this afternoon, she wanted to take some more. So, I thought I would share her works of art. Hope you enjoy!! :)

Melmo

Last weekend, Cadence went with Grammie (Trisha), Emily, and Kay-Kay (Kathy) to see Elmo Live. Kathy and Andy had gotten tickets thru his work and since Cadence LOVES Elmo they wanted to take her. My mom was in town because it was music recital weekend for Chris and I with MusicTime (our music lessons) and so it worked out perfectly for Mom to be here and be able to take Cadence to Raleigh to spend time with Kay-Kay and Emily. They had box seats so what follows are some pictures that Mom took of the Show and Cadence. 

I'm so glad Bert and Ernie were there because Ernie is one of Cadence's favorites. 
Auntie Em so excited to see Elmo!
Zoe and Big Bird and the whole Sesame Street gang was there too!!

They had box seats so there were lots of food perks. This was the popcorn they got. 

MELMO!!!!!!!!!

Kay-kay and Grammie got Cadence another Elmo doll because I forgot to send hers with her. 

Cadence and Grammie (or Gigi)
This is just another example to me of how cool our relationship is with our birth family. I am often overwhelmed to think of how God has blessed us with another family and that we get to share Cadence with them. Thanks Kay-Kay, Grammie and Emily for taking care of our girl!!
