Playing catch-up

I still haven't posted pictures of Josie's birthday, and it's SEPTEMBER! Oh boy, am I behind on things! Anyways, here are some pictures from the rest of our fun and exciting July.
We had a day when a couple of my sisters-in-law came up to our house to make hair bows and hang out. Josie and Tucker had a GREAT time playing. They are too cute together!
The local grocery store was having a big chicken sale, so Josie got a free chicken hat. It was her favorite thing for days until it "disappeared."
One of Josie's favorite things of late is seeing how many things she can get in her mouth.. she's trying to drink from 2 sippy cups at the same time here.
For Josie's birthday this year, we celebrated a week early. On Friday, we had a party at Mimi and Papa's house--we took advantage of their nice back yard. A bunch of Josie's cousins came over to play in the pool and slip 'n' slide and have ice cream cones and cupcakes. It was so hard to choose just a few pictures to post, I have so many! But here are the highlights:
Then on Sunday we celebrated all the July birthdays at Mimi and Papa's. Josie is lucky enough to be one of the 2 July birthdays. And she adores Zack--the other birthday. So we had a fun party for those two.
Me and Kimmy decorated the cakes. Here we are working hard..
Here's Josie's Ariel cake. She (and most of the other little girls) thought it was the best thing ever! I've never made so many frosting stars in my life! And I would never have gotten the cake done if Kim hadn't helped! It was lots of work!
Josie enjoying her cake. She chose to have the flower for her special piece. I wish I had a picture of her blue mouth after. :)
And here's our adorable little 2-year-old, ready for church in her new outfit. She's such a sweet little thing and we love her to pieces!On Josie's actual birthday, we had family pictures taken by one of my best friends in the whole world. She did a fantastic job and I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a photographer! You can check out the photos she did for us here. Just scroll down until you see "Satterthwaite Family" and click there to see the pictures.
Other news going on with us, Justin recently got a new job! He now works down at Hill AFB in Ogden. We are trying to sell our house and move down that way, but for now, he is commuting to work. Also, we are happy to announce that baby #2 is on it's way! He or she is due on March 5, 2010. We're thrilled! (and a little terrified!) But hey, life is good.

I wondered why you were trying to sell your house- here I thought your neighbors were just driving you crazy ( ha ha). Josie is a cutie. Congrats on the pregnancy- hope all goes well for you. :)

That Ariel cake rocks. The only thing cooler is the chicken hat. Too bad it disappeared. I totally would have rocked it...
