In the last two weeks we finally had enough consistant rain to have the Elkhart County burn ban lifted. We mowed for the first time since Cadence was born, 10 weeks ago! During normal summers we have bonfires a few times a week but with the burn ban that didn't happen. We were happy to be able to enjoy some time around the fire and it wasn't blistering hot outside either! Cadee was very content sitting in the backpack I wear to have my hands free. We just strapped it around a camp chair and she was happy. She's growing so fast, I'm afraid I'll miss something. We noticed how much she likes to watch movement, especially the Olympics that have been on TV. I think that is why she was so happy outside with us watching the fire dance around. The dogs weren't happy being tied up.
After the fire, before bed Cadee got a bubble bath. I just love a clean smelling baby!
On Sunday, 70 days old, Cadee officially visited her 3rd state, Michigan. Daniel, Cadee, and I loaded up the truck, picked up my parents and we headed north 3 hours to Grand Rapids for a family reunion. Amy was looking forward to seeing how big Cadee had grown since she stayed with us for a few weeks, but got called into work and didn't get to join us at the park. It was a quick visit for the time we spend in the car but it was good to see family. Left to right: Uncle Mark, Aunt Cindy, my Dad, Cadee and I, my Mom, Grandma Brink, and Daniel.
