family night

For family night last night, we decided to try out our new fire pit by introducing Wade to s'mores. It was one of the best and stickiest nights so far this summer.

the start of summer

Despite the fact we had a short Spring, Summer is here and we are soaking in the sun and the warmth and loving being outside.

Wade took swimming lessons a week ago and did so great. He loves blowing bubbles in the water and I have barely been able to keep him out of the pool since.

7 months

My little baby is finally getting some rolls on him and I must admit, I love them. Is it just me, or does this little guy suddenly look so much like his daddy (and just like his brother)?

Sam is now sitting up by himself and rolling like a pro. No crawling yet, but I'm not complaining. And this kid LOVES to eat! Any time we sit down to eat he whines if he is not included, even if I just fed him. He'll tolerate baby food, but much prefers whatever we are eating. He generally looks just like he does in this picture, so happy to be a part of things.

It's what fun is!

Phil's work, Overstock.com, rented out Lagoon (a local amusement park) on Friday for it's employees. Since we didn't have to pay to go, we thought we would take the family and take advantage of a fun day together.

We rode the carousel

and the train

and the airplanes

and the boats

and much more...

Phil even rode the sky coaster...a giant swing that drops you 143 feet at about 80 mph. He' nuts!

Thanks Overstock for providing a great day!
