This weekend when we went to Sequim for the first time in a long time we had a lot of fun...the fair, walks to the river, some outdoor acting/performing on the outdoor stage, and of course some time playing in the backyard.

Addy got to meet Ollie, Tyler and Ellie's new kitten, this weekend and now, more than ever, wants one of her own!!!

Eaton Family Reunion

This years Eaton Family Reunion was a complete blast. Since our last reunion we have lost some important people and it was good to get together this year to celebrate their lives and catch up with family that we rarely see all year.

Scott opened up his new house to us and asked a friend of his if he would give some plane rides, Tyler was really the only kid old enough to participate in our immediate family and he got to go with his cousins Tammy and Isaac. We also took golf carts and Garters out on the dikes that surrounded the house/property, the kids loved this!!! I would have to say my favorite part of the day was when five+ old fighter planes did a fly-over in a really cool formation. Oh and I have to say trying to ride a Sag way for the first time was fun too!

It was a bit of a crazy day and something we totally couldn't have expected at one of our family reunions! Usually its just a potluck and catching up with people:)...What are we going to do next year???

Wordless Wednesday

First Day of School 8-4-09

Addy is now an official preschooler!!! She is going three days a week and has already learned a bunch of new songs and crafts...she is meeting new friends and really likes her great teacher Sam!

First day of school picture...she was really "hamming" it up!

Maya tries solids!!!

Maya's first experience with eating solids went fairly well...She still prefers her bottles though.

Over the past couple of weeks we have continued to try new foods like bananas, pears, apples, and cereal. One day I am sure she will have a favorite...for now, she is still looking at us like what are you doing to me...the pictures say it all!

Addy's 3rd Birthday!!!

It's definitely been a while since we've updated our blog but we have been incredibly busy lately and blogging has taken a "back burner"...It feels good to finally share some of our memories of the summer!

Addy's birthday (July 14Th) was celebrated a little early this year because of our schedules and because of what we knew was going to be a very busy couple of months. We had a great time, lots of family and friends joined us for shrimp boil, home brew, and yummy cake! Addy had a lot of fun playing with her cousins and her friends. For the first time Addy really seemed to understand that the party was for her...she handled the pressure well and surprisingly there weren't any major issues:).

Here is a slide show of the party....enjoy!
