Legoland with Kari and Dylan

Grandpa fun

St. George Rendevous

Partying it up in the Super 8.


As our summer flying solo was winding down, Abe and I decided we couldn't wait the almost 2 more weeks left until Chad came home, so we planned a little rendevous with him in St. George. It was worth it. Even 30 hours of not being a single mom felt relieving and Abe was very happy to see his dad. It was incredibly hot and so most of the daylight hours were spent in water as you can see.

Will Stand For Food

While he still won't walk, he will stand unassisted if food is involved. (watermelon not pictured is being held by aunt Kari)

Hollywood Bowl

Ashley organized a little outing to a summer musical kids thing at the Hollywood Bowl. And while it wasn't exactly what we thought, we had a good time hanging out.

Trip to Utah

Practicing walking with Papa's walker.

Cole and Abe at raging waters.

Kari gave Abe his first sucker - and he really enjoyed it while his nana held him at the parade. You may think that he is trying to share it with you - but don't be fooled. He had no intention of sharing it.

He fell in love with the trampoline. We use chip clips to keep the screen around it closed so he could play by himself.
Reunited with his dad

The kids all made tie dyes.

Raging waters was actually a lot of fun. (tube picture above also from raging waters)

We made sure to make several trips to Costco while in Utah.
Dylan crawled around and yelled and growled just like abe. Abe thought he was hilarious!

As I mentioned in the last post, we were in Utah for Abe's birthday, but we stayed for 2 weeks (mostly at my sister Kari's house) including the 4th of July. Here is a random assortment of pics from the trip, mostly from Kari's camera since I forgot my charger and the battery died at Abe's b-day party the first weekend. My parents and my sister Kecia and her family all came out too, and we had a lot of fun hanging out with family and friends.
