Let Freedom Ring!!!!

Meredith was feeling a little better on Monday, so we joined Clay to celebrate Independence Day! How lucky were these girls to get 2 parades in one day (by luck).  With cousins...Jillian Saathoff, Abby Muller, Lauren & Meredith patiently waiting for the parade to start.

Meredith enjoyed watching and waving to everyone. She especially loved the tractors and horses.

Then we came home and caught our local parade and then had a few friends over to watch the fireworks from the comfort of home.

All Better Now

As you can see, after a few days Meredith is back to her old self. Eating again. Demanding her own way. Being silly Meredith. This girl makes me either laugh out loud or cry. As I watched her assemble this ensemble (yes, this is composed of a swimsuit from circo brand, a handmade apron and vintage boots circa 2006) it made me completely forget about the tantrum she threw at 6:20 this morning lying in the parking lot at day care..well almost :)
