4th of July: Part II

During our weekend visit in St. Louis, we stayed overnight with my Uncle Jerry.  He lives in the downtown area so it was within walking distance to the Arch and to Busch Stadium.  On Sunday, he graciously watched Lily while Justin and I went to a Cardinals game.  It was HOT but so much fun!

Family pic before heading to the game.  Lily was an honorary spectator.

I didn't realize until later when looking at pictures how much she actually looks like a boy in this onesie.  We were on a walk earlier that morning and a passerby said "What a cute little guy!" Oh well, she's still cute. :)

Later, there was an air show at the Arch.  We were able to see some of it from my uncle's house, followed by fireworks later in the night.




It's amazing how everything feels so much more new and exciting once a child is in your life.  To see the world through their eyes is truly a spectacular thing.  Lots of memories were made on our first vacation as a family, filled with smiles and giggles. Oh, and sleep.......

This is what Lily looked like most of the car rides

Hope your 4th was just as enjoyable!
