Sucking fingers

It appears our son is taking after his parents in their finger sucking habit as children.

I Spy!

Dillon! On the farm tour in the Ergo.

Second Child

When your sister throws her boots at you in the car embrace it as a new toy and take a nap.

Strawberries

We froze strawberries for Kevin’s shakes this winter… and for the girls to eat… mostly for the girls probably.

Compost Bin

Year two of the composter means that this is the first second batch of compost- started with a banana peel.

Beach

Autumn, Charlie and Ailey at the beach at Lake Moreau.

Robins

We had a Robin family make a nest under our porch it was fun watching them make the nest, lay the eggs, feed the babies and fly away.

Charlie!

Autumn’s daughter Charlie had a great time on the big bed.

Yummy

Rayleigh is a great eater!

Swimming

Cooling off in the 100*+ weather! She LOVES the water!

New Houses for Everyone!

Okay not everyone- but with all the new upgrades to our house for the arrival of another family- Kelsey helped Rayleigh build a “house” from the cardboard complete with windows, curtains, a fishbowl, stove and sink!- (no running water)

Slumber Party

When Autumn and the girls visited in mid June her two girls and Rayleigh enjoyed “playing” nap in the bed!

Father Daughter Club House

Kevin joined in on the cardboard house fun after work. He added some finer details to Rayleigh’s interior design.

Picnic Dinner

We’ve moved the picnic table to the porch to allow Kevin to do work outside (we added outdoor outlets too). But the practical consequence has been MANY more meals eaten at the table!

Home Sweet Home!

And Markers galore- she needed a bath but had a blast making the mess!

Fishes

Since the aquarium trip Rayleigh has been asking to see fish daily- here is her pet fish in the cardboard house. (With light to see it!)

Lake Beach

We went to Lake Moreau when Autumn came to visit with her girls. Everyone had a good time.
