Pool Float

Andrew woke up from his nap and was ready to head out for a swim! We got this float to try out...it worked for a little bit but it was a little cooler today so he rode the "boat" aka raft for most of the time.

Silly daddy blowing bubbles in the water!

POOL!

This year is a little different for Andrew in the pool! He warmed up quickly to swimming in the "poo" (hard to explain how he says the word pool). This little swim started off by just putting our pigs in the pool. He ended up stripping down and swimming in his diaper!

Grandma's School

We walked to "grandma's school." Andrew loves to play in her office and check out all of the toys in the cabinet. We stopped by the playground for a little bit before it got too hot! Someone didn't want their picture taken!

Can't catch me!

First Beach Trip 2010

Well you can see how the first beach trip went...first of all my mom and I hiked there and it was really hot outside! Before we left, Andrew got quite a boo boo...the door caught his toe and his nail bent back. So here he is attempting to put his feet in the water....but it hurt :( By the time we needed to go, he was just warming up and forgetting about his injury!

No waves today!

That. Is. A. Look!

Allison's Graduation Party

My cousin Allison graduated from high school and is headed to Ferris State! We had a great time helping her celebrate!

Andrew loved the cake with hot pink frosting!

Audrey finally started smiling for her daddy...he didn't believe me that she has been smiling!

Hi daddy!

Train Hat

We went to Matt's birthday party yesterday and Andrew had a great time! Today it was time to check out the goodie bag treats! He loves to wear Brian's hat because it's big and his hats are too small...so he loved the train hat!

Meerkats!

One of Andrew's favorite exhibits at the zoo...the meerkats. They are quite active and they really seem to like the attention. Andrew kept playing peek-a-boo with them!

Umbrella

The dollar section is great for little things....this umbrella was a hit. It's a good thing it only cost a dollar because I think it broke within the first 10 minutes of use! As soon as Andrew woke up from his nap it had finally started to rain, so he had to try it out!

Adalyn's Birthday Party

We went to Adalyn's 1st birthday party and had a great time! Thanks to Mary for most of these pictures!

Adalyn the Birthday Girl!

Photo Card Attempts

So...we are a little late on getting the photos done for Audrey's birth announcement. You can see why if you look at some of the attempts below. We used some of the hospital photos and wanted a picture with both of them!

The final choice...

This is how it all began...you can imagine where that finger went.

Practicing smiling...

Audrey was not happy...

Look at my band-aid!
