July 2010

Wow! Where did July go?? It is hard to believe that its been 2 months since Emma's birthday. We had a busy July here in the Putman household. The most important thing that happened is that we welcomed a new member of the family: Brady Richard Putman, Emma's new cousin.  We are all very excited for Aunt Carlin and Uncle Damon.

Well, heres a recap of the month:
On 4th of July we headed downtown to the Round Rock Parade.  We thought it was time Emma got to see a good old fashioned hometown parade. She is used to the giant spectacles Disney puts on! The fireworks were cancelled so she & daddy just watched the ones being done by our neighbors.

We went to Kiddie Acres for the first time with Mom's Club and Emma had a blast. She especially liked riding the airplanes. She had so much fun we went back later that weekend. 

Next weekend we decided to head to San Antonio to try out Six Flags. Emma is a theme park champion so far but we have not been there.  As Six Flags go, this park is very nice and in a great area.  Emma loved the Wiggles World area where she rode on cars, airplanes, and buckets. We watched a couple of shows, rode the train around the park, the carousel, and played in the sprinkler areas.  The next day we got to see Grandma Sherry and Cousin Cathy. We had a blast hanging out with them. That night I went to the Michael Buble concert with Sherry & Cathy. He was terrific. 

We got to spend some time with mommy's good friend Aunt Amanda and her kids Andrea & Aaron. Even though I was tired, we went to lunch and to the pool on a very hot day. My friend Maricelle and her girls joined us at the pool that afternoon. It was such a fun and relaxing day for all of us. The guard was playing some awesome 70's & 80's disco/dance music so it felt like a pool party.  Emma was dancing and shaking her booty for all!

Finally we ended the month with a trip to the Dino Park in Cedar Creek TX.  Emma was pretty tired but did ok despite me leaving our food & $$ at the house. Thankfully Maricelle helped us out and paid our way, shared her food, & bought Emma a gift. She also drove which helped since I had to work that night! Emma loves dinosaurs but does not quite have the knowledge everyone else had about them. We are hoping to take her to Glen Rose, TX to another Dino Park, Dino Valley State Park, and Fossil Rim Wildlife Area this fall.

OHH, WE ARE FINALLY POTTY TRAINED!!! Well, mostly . . .

This August has us busy with starting a new school: Sunrise Montessori . . .
