11 Months!




Guess who was 11 months yesterday?  Time flies.  Keeping busy here!  He is walking too but only between Steve & I and with something in his right hand.  Trying to get him to do it on his own, but he just drops to his bum!  Busy party planning for the big 1 year bash!

Other silliness.....

Julia & Ryan hosted an Olympic Party on August 5th.  We all wore our Olympic shirts and watched the Olympics.  Too bad there was nothing worth watching on...

Hunter (10.5 months), Haley (3.5 years), Alex (7.5 months)

Dressing up silly

Smiles, Smiles, and More Smiles

Great Aunt Sue gave Haley a marker stamp activity book where she made these beautiful bracelets!

Dancing Machine....

....watch the legs!

Pittsburgh

We made our first trip as a family of four to Pittsburgh July 25th - August 1st!  It was also Hunter's first time on an airplane!  One of Steve's high school friends got married so worked perfectly with our Summer visit!  The kids were both good on the airplane both ways!  Haley enjoyed doing sticker books and watching a movie on the DVD player and Hunter just hung out, ate, and slept. 

We had so much fun in Pittsburgh:

Haley & Grandma Sue made muffins

Haley & Grandpa Tom played cards

All dressed up for the wedding!

Giselle & Steve Obermeier, Steve's high school friends, at the wedding!

Matt & Katie Schaal, more high school friends, at the wedding!

At our table

Enjoying a beautiful sunset and adult beverages on the balcony was a favorite activity!

GG Swick gave Haley some jewellery that she LOVED!

We stayed pretty busy as you can see!  We also made a trip to the playground, played in a kiddie pool, blew bubbles, had friends and family over for get togethers, and more!  Steve and I even got to go out for a date one night to a nice restaurant!  Thank you to Grandma Sue & Grandpa Tom for babysitting!

Funny, on the airplane on the way back, Haley kept insisting we were going on a space adventure prior to the plane taking-off.  She kept repeating it loudly and got a few chuckles from neighboring people.  Then when we took off, she yelled BLASTOFF!  I about died laughing!  Guess she has been watching some tv lately!

It was a fun trip and we hope to make it back again soon!
