Fourth of July

For the Fourth of July, we headed over to the Haley's house, so the boys could ride their bikes in our neighborhood parade and play together after. Noah and his Mimi decorated his bike that morning, and then my parents stayed at the house to watch Ethan. They Haley's had a splash area set up in the backyard for the kids and fixed a great meal for lunch.

After the Haley's house, we headed back home for naps and to get ready for dinner. My parents had not been to City Center yet, so we went to Ruggles Green for an early dinner in an effort to miss the crowds. Noah got to run around, and we got to enjoy some delicious food.

After dinner, we headed home to watch the fireworks on TV. Unfortunately, Noah is scared to death of fireworks. It is funny! He use to love them, but last year in D.C. he started bawling and covering his ears when the fireworks went off. Ever since then, he wants nothing to do with them. He likes the colors, but hates the loud noises, so we got to watch them on TV instead. It worked out perfect though with Ethan. We did get to do a couple of sparklers though thanks to Bill and Kate. They were so nice to pick some up for us and drop them off!!!

Super Sparkler!

Happy 1st Week Birthday Ethan!

Happy Fourth of July!!
