Keeping up with the Kiddos: Lots of Firsts for Elia

This past week and a half has been busy with many firsts for baby! We started off July heading back to Central PA for Aunt Hannah's wedding...yay for a new uncle Travis! Elia did great during the festivities and Bryan wins a gold star for being a super dad while I tended to matron of honor duties. Here are some pictures from the event:

She slept through all the official pictures and the ceremony!

Happy wedding day, Hannah and Travis!

The next morning at brunch we ate food while Elia ate Memaw.

After the wedding fun had ended, Bryan headed back to Ohio for the week while I got to stay with my parents at their new beach house at OBX. Elia loved the beach! The ocean was very calming and she had a great time with Oma and Opa. She can't wait to go back in a couple weeks with the Joseph clan! That week she also had a lot of exciting baby "firsts" such as rolling half-way over, finding her feet, knowing when adults are eating (and screaming loudly about it), going to sleep on her own, and sitting up mostly on her own! She also got to attend her second wedding back in PA last Saturday. She was a gem once again! Here are some pictures from the week:
