Family, Horses, Flowers, and Cows...

Now, how's that for a title! The weekend of July 17th we headed to Belle for the Belle Fair. Anastyn got lots of time to play with her cousins during the weekend since they were down. They are so good with her and love her dearly. She loves them as well. She follows them around wherever they go and they follow her around trying to take care of her, making sure she is okay. They are such precious girls. They will be such good big sisters to their new brother!


Trying to get all the girls together

Trying to get a picture of the girls together is never an easy task. Skylar was afraid there might be bugs in the grass so she was not going to sit down, she didn't really even want to sit on the blanket! It turned out kind of cute though, even the confused look on Anastyn's face!

At some point during the weekend Anastyn got to meet the horse that my dad and brother got. She really liked him, but only wanted to touch him once. I think she will warm up eventually and I am excited for her to get on him one day to ride. I know she will love it.

Not so sure about petting it though



At the 4th of July festival we found this adorable headband so we had to model it, of course!

Is this not the cutest?

Then we let her model her new ladybug outfit that her Aunt Devin got her. I love this outfit and the colors look so good outside. She loves flowers and picking those little white flowers (weeds) that grow in the yard. She also found a pretty orange flower at Grandma Nette's that she tried to smell!

Picking a white flower (or weed, whatever they are)


Happy girl, especially if she is outside

This is right after she smelled the flower, I love how her nose gets all wrinkled up.

And finally, one of my co-workers gave us this little cow that her daughter used to use (Thanks, Sue!). Anastyn LOVES it. It is so funny, for weeks she would not get on it, but she would walk up to it and give it kisses or moo at it or stand to the side and rock it. Finally we got her on it and now she loves to go for a ride. She can rock it by herself, but she really likes when her daddy pushes her around the living room. She squeals and leans back like she is riding a bull or something. I love watching her. She also likes to climb on it backwards, but she always gets herself turned back around so she can rock. So cute!

Here she is climbing on backwards


And finally, one of my favorite pictures. Nathan was pushing her around the couch and she was so excited, I love the look on her face.

Yes, her cousins do adore her. They talk about "little" Anastyn all the time. All these pics are adorable, and I must say the lady bug outfit suits her perfectly. Someone has great taste! j/k Can't wait to see you guys again! Love ya!
