8 Months

It's been another busy month for the baby girl hence the copious amount of photos this time!

We took a mini-vacation to Mexico Beach (Thanks Kennedys!), where Zola LOVED the water and playing in the sand...and Grant and I LOVED the relaxation.

Then Zola and I left Grant at home (so sad) and hopped on a flight to Pittsburgh for 11 days. We played with grandparents and Aunt Stevie for a few days and then drove to my Nana's house for the weekend for a Setliff family reunion. Zola loved playing with her cousins and hanging out with her Great-Nana and aunts and uncles. Then we drove back to Pittsburgh for the rest of our time and even got to spend a night with our Smith friends, Emily and Elora! Zola was so excited to see her friend again. (So was I!)

Anyway, we made it back to Tallahassee where Grant was waiting (pacing until our return is more like it!). When we got to the house Zola and I discovered a brand new orange kitchen, where all the dishes were clean, a new kick plate on the front door and new shelves in the freshly painted utility closet. Grant says he never wants us to go away without him ever again...but if he stays that busy I don't know... :) He couldn't believe that she came back with her first tooth! Babies change so fast...

So now we're all at home trying to catch up on rest and enoy the rest of the summer. And we hope you are doing the same!

Love,
Emily and Grant and Zola
