Family Pool Time

We took a trip to the pool last night, to help Meagan practice some of the things she's learning in her lessons. Caleb just jung out in the little floating tube, and enjoyed himself.







We did have a little mishap yesterday, that was not too pleasant. Meagan and I go picking raspberries in the bushes, near the house, and she showed me where there were "bluedubbies" as she calls blueberries, (but they were saskatoons), and as I was picking them, I realized there was a wasp nest around, and as I was getting us away from the spot, Meagan got stung on the toe. While grabbing her to get away, I got stung on the leg. Boy that hurts!!Later she watched her Dad get rid of the nest, but she was very worried for him... Not a fun experience.

Caleb is starting to sleep more through out the night. Which is nice! He is still enjoying his tasty rice cereal. Gets it all in his mouth, and doesn't waste any! And I've been quite happy these past couple weeks, as Meagan has been trying a few new foods. She as SUCH a picky eater, and had only chicken nuggets and hotdogs for meat. Now she is enjoying burgers, and even ate have of my steak and some roasted chicken. Hurray!!

We will have quite the busy next couple of weeks. I've been planning my parents SURPRISE 25th Wedding Anniversary. And a bonus surprise is that some of my Mom's brother's and sisters are coming down for the week. So we'll be spending some time in Bonnyville to visit with everyone. Also, Grant is taking a tour with his motorbike with a few friends to a bike rally in South Dakota. And the following week, we'll be camping near Salman Arm, and taking in some tourist sites with the kids on the trip there. August will be another of those months that fly by!

My baby boy

Thought I'd better post a few pictures of my boy. Just so I'm being fair. I'm so lucky to have such an easy go lucky baby. He goes with the flow... makes some noise when he's hungry, smiles and laughs at everyone and everything, and fits in perfectly with our little family.

Had to put a picture of Caleb's superman sleeper, that he was able to wear just for the picture, as it's already too small . Boy don't you love it when clothes shrink after they've been washed!

Whenever we are heading out Meagan always says "Baby come too?" and if he's not around, she asks where he is. When she gets up first thing in the morning and after her nap, she says "Tee my baby?"

We've been out and about quite a bit this week. Meagan is taking swimming lessons, and Grandma Theroux is watching Caleb in the mornings.

Sleep time

Just had to take a photo this week when she fell asleep during a late lunch. Now, the question of the day... Did I let her sleep in her chair so I could get some laundry folded... or take a well needed nap myself... or wake her up and put her to bed? Well, she woke up pretty much after I took the photos, and continued to eat.

It's been so hot, and we've been out and about every day. Meagan is taking swimming lessons this week with a few of her friends. We're working on trying to dunk her head under water. She now blows bubbles under water, and tries to float on her front and back.

Had to throw in these extra photos as well. Nothing cuter than a little one sleeping...

County Fair

Meagan and I had a Mother & Daughter day, while Grant was at home with Caleb. Her and I went to the County Fair for some fun with her friend Braydyn. We saved the face painting for last, but it did not last long, as she had a nap when we got home and it was smeared off... (At least we have the picture...)

She got to see quite a variety of animals in the petting zoo, such as a baby potbelly pig, rabbits, chickens, a baby yak, calf, etc. She was afraid of the big black turkey, though.

The big hit was Fuzzy the clown, who made her a puppy from a balloon, and Braydyn a pink kitty. The time went by fast, as there was a lot to see.

Birthday party

Meagan had such a fun time at Hanna's birthday party. Just posting a few pictures of this monster slide, that had water sprinkling over the slide and in front of the side hole. Which kid wouldn't have a blast with this. Meagan even got to play Pin the Tail on the Donkey, and get treats from the Pinata... Thanks to Lori & Klint for having us over...
