So, it’s the 4th already! We are getting ready to have people over today for a bbq. It’s raining right now so it will be interesting to see how this plays out. The usual clan is heading over – Grandma Debbie, Grandma Marsha, Grandpa Mark, John, Jill, Jake (in womb), Donny, Derrik, Mary, Grayce, and Gretchen. Lauren and Robert (looks a lot like Eli Manning) from Beth’s work are coming as well! Happy 4th to all and look for pictures from today tomorrow!
As for yesterday, Ella and I spent the morning helping Ashley move out of the city. She is moving up to Madison to be with Fletcher. I still don’t know why… LOL. Ella was a great helper and Ashley’s mom gave her $10 because of how helpful she was. I’m thinking it’s because she’s too cute! After we got back from Chicago, Team Saip headed out to a festival in Crystal Lake. Kiley rode on the Ferris wheel at 17 Months Old! She has no fear and was just saying “Weeeeee” the whole time. Beth and I couldn’t believe it. We came home and spent the night getting ready for the party today. Cut the lawn, put up the pool, and played outside with the girls. It was a great time (except for mowing the lawn).
Big news in MLB, Pujols hit a grand slam (31st Homerun) as the Cardinals beat the Reds! Grandma and Grandpa Saip will get to see an awesome All Star game next weekend. Hopefully, we will be able to get the two extra tickets!
Here are some photos that John posted on Flickr from their baby shower! Here are photos from 7/3!
