June Highlights

Here are a few stories and pictures to sum up the month of June.

This is Emily chatting away on her play cell phone one morning. She usually has conversations with people who are in the room, but she has to talk to them using the phone. She also uses it quite a bit in the car.

These are the guys outside grilling on Father's Day. Joe's shirt says "Daddy's BBQ Budddy."

These are the Bartelt Cousins! Alexis, Emily, and Joseph. This was taken Father's Day weekend, too.

And here are the moms and babies.
Amanda and Alexis

Josie and Joseph

Becky and Hayden Oyen
Hayden is only about a month older than Joseph.

Emily found a big hat to play dress up with.

Our highchair that we got when Emily was born was recalled. And it was cracked so we couldn't use the repair kit, either. So we had to send it in, and then Graco sent us a new one. In the mean time, we borrowed a highchair from Brian's parents. So here is a picture of Joe in the new highchair and Emily in the borrowed one. She wanted to sit up high like Joe.
