2 Months...Already!

Well it's official: I can't help myself. Any month milestone for a baby is reason enough for me to torture them endlessly with the camera. Here is sweet Micah, 2 months old today. He is such a blessing and delight. Enjoy!

He has no clue how much we enjoy him...

We spontaneously took these pictures one quiet Sunday afternoon so that Micah could see he really did have a mom and dad when he was little. Anyone else out there tend to forget to take pictures of themselves because it's awkward and annoying? Oh what I would give to have more photos of my mom, who passed away when I was 10. Do your kids a favour and take some pictures with YOU in them today!

Summer Lovin'

This summer we've been blessed with a kids picnic table from Rob's parents, a sandbox from a friend, and now a pool from my aunt an uncle! Yesterday was our first time trying out the pool, and it was a hit...for Ellie at least!
Josh "helping" me fill it up.


Some of the water actually went into the pool!...


...A lot of it hit Ellie.





Photographic proof that our son is NOT always smiling (some folks have trouble believing this but it's most definitely true!)


Watching the girls have fun in the pool and wanting nothing to do with it.


Ellie + water = Good times!


Our 6-year-old neighbour Sara came to play.








Josh is most definitely NOT a fish! (I even had trouble convincing him to put his swim trunks on.)
But, I taught him how to make roads with tractors and he was busy for an hour!
