I can't believe how fast this summer has gone by. It's already the middle of August. We have been to two weddings this summer (Heather and Andrew and Matt and Melissa). Both weddings were outside and Nicole had a blast at both of them. Her favorite part, of course, was dancing! We couldn't get that girl off of the dance floor. Heather and Andrew's wedding was Nicole's very first wedding.  We also reconnected with some of our friends, Jessica, Rob, Camryn and baby Addison. Nicole got to go to Ocean City for the first time in July. We drove down to Ocean City after Matt and Melissa's wedding. She had so much fun playing in the water and the sand. We went to the boardwalk for a while and then headed home. She fell asleep in the car before we even pulled out of the parking lot. Another fun event we went to is our friend Zachary's 2nd birthday party at "Bounce Around". Nicole loved playing with her friends from day care and climbing on all of the different areas. Even Mommy went on some of the bouncing areas with Nicole. In August, Aunt Julie, Katie, Brittany, Mommy, Daddy and Nicole went to the Baltimore Zoo. This was our first time at this zoo...except for Daddy who went when he was a little kid. Nicole got to see all sorts of animals and got to feed a giraffe with Daddy and ride a camel with Aunt Julie. Before we left, we went on some rides and Nicole had a blast. Nicole is growing up so fast. She is talking in more sentences and learning so much. She has been going on the potty a lot lately both at school and at home. We also bought her a big girl bed and she has been sleeping in it by herself and through the night. She just loves to read her "Goodnight Moon" book and sleep with her babies. We have a couple of of other fun events planned for the summer now that Mommy is done with school for a couple of weeks.
