July has come and is almost gone.

I cannot believe we are nearing the end of another month. We are just a few days away from Zoey being 11 months old and are starting to think of what we are going to do to celebrate her 1st birthday. Really hard to believe. She is definitely on the move now. Crawling full speed, walking along things and pushing her walker. This picture was taken just today. Zoey was pushing her walker all over the living room and decided to crash it into her high chair. She's been really exploring and very happy the past couple of days.
4th of July seemed like it was just yesterday. We spent the whole weekend in Seward. Here is a picture of Zoey in her star dress. What a cutie. It was rainy and cool for the 4th, which is highly unusual. We took in a few traditional things with Zoey, but next year she'll be interested more. She really liked the parade. We watched it with Chris' parent's and my sister Tammy and her family. It was a long weekend of old traditions but with a new perspective now that we have Zoey.

As I said above, Zoey is on the move! Our friends the Prochaska's brought over the walker their kids used. We use it out in the driveway with Zoey. She loves it! For whatever reason she veers to the left and loves to head for the street. I think she likes the speed! We went and bought her a good pair of Stride Rite shoes. And were they worth the money! She LOVES her shoes. The first time we took them off for bed, she started crying and just wanted to hold them. Chris is worried that he'll have another girl who loves shoes on his hands! We put Zoey in the walker almost everynight so she gets some fresh air and she's usually worn out and ready for bed. This picture also shows her million dollar smile. It melts your heart and is definitely contagious. If you're having a bad day, come on over, Zoey will cure it!
