Summer...finally!!!

I'm really trying to update this blog every month, but we've been a little busy this month with adding the new baby to the family. Here are some things we did in June & July, when the weather FINALLY started to turn into summer.


Paul got Gavin a tee-ball set and they practiced in the garage. So far, Gavin prefers to hold the bat at the big end, but he'll learn. The pink car in the background is still his favorite activity, so we spend a lot of time in the garage where Gavin pretends to go on trips, puts his keys in the "nition", and locks the car with a loud "beep" when he's done.

We also played at the park with our friends a lot. Here's Gavin with his neighbor friends Dylan & Olivia enjoying a snack break.

We enjoyed a lovely Father's Day brunch at Meriwethers

At the end of June, Paul took a trip to Canada for work, so my friend, Kristi, and I took our kids to Lincoln City for a few days and stayed at my mom's beach house. The weather was pretty decent so we hung out on the beach, took walks, played at the park, and drove to the Newport Aquarium.
Watching cartoons with their lovies. (Gavin's is a pinwheel.)


Gavin actually enjoyed the Aquarium...I think the sun was just in his eyes. :)

Gavin was pretty scared of the water (especially after Madison got soaked by a wave), and didn't like walking on the sand much, but he did like playing in it.
