Random July Happenings

Oliver is 7 months!

At 7 months Oliver is eating 3 meals a day (and he likes to eat everything), he is starting to self feed with different types of food, he claps, says "ba ba" and "ah ba", sticks his hands up, sticks his tongue out, he is crawling everywhere, still only has 2 teeth, and is generally pretty much happy all time.  Although this month he started waking a couple times a night again to eat - not sure if it's a growth spurt or teeth but hopefully he goes back to sleeping through the night soon enough.

Lunch with Grandpa Bruce and Grandma Sharon

Alexis' Final Blastball (Baseball) for the season!

For the last practice they played more of a real game - fielding and taking turns hitting and running the bases - note Lexi's fielding "ready position"  is typically sitting/crouching and putting gravel in her glove 

Now she's serious!

It took a couple of swings, but she did get a great hit

 Third Base and proud of it

Alexis and her buddy Cole

Playing with the gravel gets you a chalk face

The kids got to pick out a prize after the game and she picked the water gun.

 Very Proud!

Goooooo Otters

My little Cleaner...

Alexis likes to clean just as much as I do, and I really appreciate the help.  She is extremely thorough!

Greyson is Officially 5!!!

The official day is here and Greyson is 5.  I had to come up with some last minute decorations the night before as I couldn't find any starwars themed decorations/party stuff.  I realised that night that I forgot decorations all together, so I went with construction paper, pool noodles, and starwars figures.  Grandma Judy wasn't able to join us at the family party so she came today for a Birthday lunch and some birthday cake!
