Salem Pond

We love going to Salem Pond.  The kids can play, Bruce can fish and I can take pictures of it all.  Best of all it's only five minutes from our house!














Corn on the cob

Summertime means lots of fresh corn on the cob.  Reagan can't get enough of this stuff, she can easily eat three to four cobs in one sitting!  Oakley even got his first taste of corn on the cob and he loved it! 



Polly Pockets

Reagan has been loving to play with Polly Pockets lately.  She will sit play with them for hours!  She loves it when Makayla will come and play with her too!


Spinkler fun

Morgan, Reagan and Oakley have fun playing in the sprinklers.  They just love being outside, no matter what the temperature is!



















Left out

Since finishing downstairs the kids have been spending much more time playing down there.  I am not very comfortable with Oakley on the stairs yet so we installed a gate that swings open (besides I need it for my daycare anyway) It is so sad to see him peering down the stairs at the kids through the handle.  Soon, hopefully he will get better on the stairs and he can join the kids more often.



Sleepy boy

Oakley is usually really hard to get to sleep.  I think that he thinks that if he goes to sleep he is going to miss out on something.  Even once he is asleep he doesn't sleep very long.  That's why we were so surprised to find him sleeping right in the middle of the living room floor with Dory.  He was playing with some toys while I was washing the dinner dishes, when I came back into the living room he was sound asleep.  He must have been really tired!

Playing outside

While I was outside with my camera taking pictures of Owen and his new bike.  I decided to take pictures of the other kiddos. 
Oakley loves being pushed in the stroller.

 And eating popcicles
 Reagan loves to pose, she is such a happy, sweet girl!
 I LOVE Morgan's freckels, they are my favorite.  They are perfect!
 Bailey mowed the lawn.
 Oakley also liked playing on Reagan's old trike, we need to find him a more manly trike...
I just love summertime and being able to spend so much time outside!
