Happy 4th of July

Because of good reasons Jeremy & I spent our 4th in the hospital. Owen's circumcision wasn't scheduled until Monday morning & either way he had to stay at the hospital for at least 24 hours before going home. Were so blessed to have Baby Owen but it was the first holiday I've ever spent away from Bailey in four years so it was pretty bitter sweet. We still stayed busy with visits from Bailey, Grandma & Grandpa Sapp, Jenna, Guito, Hunter, Kelly, & Luke. Bailey really enjoyed the hospital food especially the cake and we took what pictures we could of Bailey & Owen sporting some red, white, and blue.

Welcome Baby Owen

After a quick entrance into the world Owen Matthew Sapp made his first appearance only one day early on July 3rd @ 7:58 pm. He weighed 7lbs 10oz and was 19in long. We finally decided on his name the morning of the 4th and I couldn't picture him as anything else other than an Owen. Bailey really had her hopes set on Baby Ariel HoHo(from Ni Hao Kai Lan) Baby Ryder Moon Sapp but I just don't think he would appreciate that name in a few years:) Owen seems to be adjusting well to the outside world and so far Bailey loves having her little brother around and wants to hold and love him all the time.

38 1/2 weeks

On a last minute whim we decided to have a friend of ours just snap some pics at the beach. They were free and took about a total of 15 minutes to do, but to our surprise turned out better than we would've thought.

My Fav!

Were now at exactly 39 weeks, before Bailey's recital this last Saturday having the baby wasn't an option, but now that we made it to the recital we are ready whenever he decides he's wants to come out. My due date is still July 4th which is now less than a week away so we shall see if he decides to come out this week. Bailey was only two days early so my guess is Thursday or Friday. We still haven't decided on a name so I guess the longer he waits the better:)

Bedtime Madness

Right before Bailey went upstairs for bed she heard the "Move It, Move It" song on TV which apparently gave her more energy then she knew what to do with....the results are in the videos....

Dance Recital

Bailey did so great at her dance recital, it really couldn't have went any better! I have heard her be a lot louder during practice but considering this was her first performance in front of a huge audience we kind of figured she would tone it down. We're so proud of our little B!!!

Girls Morning

Since I can't exactly give myself my own pedicure and Jeremy refuses, I decided to take Bailey with me so we could get pedicures done together. Maybe starting her at four wasn't the best idea for our bank account but she loved it and I'm sure it was just the start of many more times. I didn't think to get a picture of her final product but she picked out pink & blue for her fingers & toes then had flowers added to her big toes.

Silly girl

Soccer Camp

Bailey's second year of soccer camp has come to an end. She loves playing soccer, but if you know Bailey you know she loves her sleep and is so excited to sleep in undisturbed tomorrow. Of course I took a ton of pics throughout the week, and then couldn't decide which ones to use so I uploaded all my favorites!

Hurley's Family Reunion

We've had Hurley just over a year now and although he's started at only 6lbs when we got him he is well over 40lbs now. We finally got him together with his mom & brother for a small family reunion and just to give him a bigger dog to play. Our little Min Pin doesn't seem to want to play with Hurley, but who can blame him when he's only 10lbs. It was so cool seeing how they reacted to each other like they new they were family although they haven't seen each other in such a long time.

USS Midway

Since Jeremy has been home from deployment which has now been 1 1/2 years, Bailey has wandered what it was like on Daddy's big boat. Until recently Jeremy had forgotten about the USS Midway which has been decomissioned and sits at the Harbor in San Diego open for tours. Although it is not the exact boat Jeremy was on, everything about it was very similar to his boat the Dubuque. Last weekend we took Bailey to check it out and I'm pretty sure she loved it and says her favorite part was seeing where daddy ate and walking around the kitchen.

Tiny sleeping spaces just the right size for a 4 year old; not so much a grown man
