This guy turned 11 months this month!! He is such a soft, fuzzy, fun sweetheart. He is a very squirmy worm and has mastered the army crawl and moves SO fast! He doesn't care what it is he is crawling over either...cement, grass, rocks, dirt, water, carpet, hard flood, sand...Nothing phases him! He just goes and goes! His hair is finally long enough to actually move in the wind! Big accomplishment. He still LOVES food and screeches and bites his hand in the side of his mouth in excitement and frustration of me not getting it to him fast enough! He is a whopping 24 lbs now. I challenge anyone to an arm wrestle. I'll even use my left arm...the one I hold him with all day! :)
He is just too cute. Even with a dangerous choking hazard in his mouth.
Addie just wants to hold and cuddle Everett all of the time, but that is just not on his list of things he wants to do! He rarely sits still. He did here for a few seconds and I caught the end of it, but 2 seconds later he was squirming away!
Yeah, sorry Addie. Enjoy the brief moment.
Cute little bootie and tan legs.
I had to take a picture to remember this super soft peach fuzzy head. Like I said, it blows in the wind now! You can actually see he has hair! But once it gets wet it totally disappears.
Summertime is a huge family fishing season for us. And this is how we make it happen! It isn't always fun for everyone...there is a lot of whining, but life is all about the moments right? I dream of Justin and I just going on that lake for some peaceful quiet time. It is fun to have the kids too though. Good experiences for them and some good memories sometimes!
Ha ha! Everett. 5th child just has to learn to go with the flow.
Who can spy the Bald Eagle in the tree?! So cool. I've seen more Eagles in Canada than I've seen in the US! :)
Cameron Lake was GORGEOUS this night. So flat! This RARELY happens!
Justin's happy place. I think it was smoky, but look at that reflection! Hardly a ripple!
We had "Uncle Ben" with us...Justin's cousin who also loves fishing.
Justin's 3rd and 4th love...Fishing and Cameron Lake.
And his 5th love...GARDENING! And reaping the rewards! Problem is gardens produce in the summer when you just want to be playing!
Everett's first cone. I think he liked it! They have these adorable tiny cones at the store in town. Perfect kid size cones.
My kids dream day. They love getting all muddy. This is our "beach" and it actually is a pretty good one. Especially at the end of season when the mosquitoes are gone. If it's windy enough you'll even get some decent sized waves!
The lake was SO low! It was pretty fun because you could walk to that island on the other side in shin deep water.
