Holliday Lake State Park

We took Penny camping for the first time. On Sunday we went to Holliday Lake and met my parents and Taylor and Jennifer for lunch. Chuck, Penny, Nixon and I stayed the night in our new tent!

We played on the playground some and walked Nixon all over the place. Taylor and Jennifer were happy to see Nixon and wore him out. Chuck and my dad fished a little, but nothing was biting.

After my parents and sisters left, we built a fire and I cooked dinner. Penny played in the gravel and had some mud pies. We woke up Monday and headed home after cooking waffles for breakfast. Chuck was ready to do some work in our yard. We had fun and we are planning another trip next month to Pocahontas State Park!

6 Months!

Today Penny is 6 months old. I can't believe how big she has gotten! This month she has learned how to get up on all fours, sit up on her own, and blow raspberries. She also got her front two bottom teeth. We tried some solids, avocado and banana, on Friday. She wasn't super interested, but she can keep tasting til she gets the hang of it. We also have made it 6 months breastfeeding! That is something to be proud of to me :) We went to Babies R Us and did a little shopping today and came home and took some pictures in the yard. She is wearing the dress her Papa bought her the day we found out she was going to be a girl :)
