Big Bear Camping!

This past weekend, Josh and I left Matthew with the Grandparents and went up to Big Bear to camp for the weekend with a group of Young Marrieds at our church. I only vaguely remember camping one time in my life, maybe 15 years ago - so this was pretty much a first for me, and only a second or so for Josh. We had a blast - we hiked, boulder-climbed, jumped off rocks into the lake, mountain biked, bowled and just hung out. And, much to my dismay, Matthew didn't seem to miss us at all :-( He'll be at a "missing mom and dad" stage some day or other! Now we're home and trying to get back into the swing of things. . .it sure was nice to sleep in over the weekend. . .

Balboa Park, BBQ & More!

I know, I know - slacker Chrissie let WEEKS go by before she posted - what's up with that?! So here I am, posting several in one day. I could have spaced them out, but I just couldn't help it :-) Can't wait to see what else summer has in store; it's only just begun!

Happy (belated) Father's Day!

Time has just been flying by, and I totally missed posting Father's day! I was hoping to wait until I got a pic of Matthew with Grandpa Eddie, but we'll just have to get one to post later on. Josh had a great first Father's day, and the Grandpa's got their first Grandfather's day too!

In the meantime. . .

Alright - I've got a few posts in the works (including a tribute to Father's Day, of course) - but in the meantime, here's a flix for you!

SHARK ATTACK!?!

Duh nuh. . . .duh nuh. . . . duh nuh. . . duh nuh. .duh nuh duh nuh duh nuh duh nuh. . . . (Jaws)

Ok, so we were trying to give him a mohawk, but bubbles and water just didn't cut it. So the mohawk picture is still in the works.

Bed head, anyone?

Gummy Grin No More. . .

"Look at me - look at me . . . my first two bottom teeth broke through! What? You can't see them? Ah man, it was hard work!"

.

That's right, he has his first two teeth poking through the gums. He's always been a drooler, but now - my goodness, he's a faucet! He handled it really well though - just a little extra fussiness, but nothing much. He took it like a man! Okay, so here's a sweet smiley picture to make up for his funny face above. I made a little wave with his hair too - ha ha - it was fun.
