More Summer Lov'n

 Wow, mid August already?! Between un-packing and getting settled, watching Lyddi, trying to get naps in when I can, get togethers, and fun summer activities...time is flying by. Here's what we've been up to lately. Lyddi and I went to the zoo with my dear buddy, Laura, and her son, Carter. Lyddi really enjoyed her first zoo visit. Her favorites were the monkeys and fish!
Here she is checking out a big turtle.
 Mamma and Lyddi looking at he penguins.
 Lydia took to Carter and Laura immediately. It was so sweet watching them together.
 She also had fun on the toy train.
Petting Zoo...
 Group shot at the end of the day. It was quite special because Laura and I took Carter on his first zoo visit when he was a little guy and nine years later, we are keeping the tradition going of enjoying our kids first zoo visits together.
We've been hanging out at our house a lot lately, getting unpacked and organized. Lyddi has been exploring her new surrounding too. Here she is putting ear plugs in her ears.
 We do a LOT of reading at our place.
After dinner play time with Daddy- Wahoo!!
Future Apple genius maybe?!
 Playing in her new play room. She LOVES puzzles.
Another favorite is going for bike rides. I am proud to say I am still able to go with Daddy and Lyddi, although only a few minutes at a time. 
Wearing Mamma's "soos."
 Another highlight of summer is getting to play with cousins. My mom bought these adorable dresses for all the grand daughters.
Pieter teaching Lydia about the toys she's playing with.
 Listening to some tunes! (Actually there was no music, but she was pretending there was.)
 It was a bit colder at the cottage than I realized so cousin Bryson let Lyddi borrow some of his clothes for the day.
 Playing Peek-A-Boo through the railing.
 Driving the pontoon with Grandpa, Blake and Bry-guy.
 Fun stuff!
