Playing at the park

How did we get such a blue eyed baby?

IT'S 10/10/10.....

and our baby is 10 months today!!!! What a day to celebrate right?

It's Autumntime, It's Autumntime....

the leaves are falling down.

We've got quite the little camper.....

We went camping about a month ago and just now I am getting around to posting some pictures. Saiji was quite the little camper. He loved being in the tent and also slept so well that night! We'll have to go a lot more next summer...that is if we stay in town long enough.

I LOVE this boy...

I can't believe my little man is almost 9 months old. I love everything about him!!!

Swimming

Since we are no longer near a beach we have to resort to this wonderful kiddie pool (Thanks Auntie Megan for letting us borrow it)! It doesn't look like Saiji minds...unfortunately it's not big enough for the two of us.

We were so lucky to go and visit.....

And have these two cousins play with each other....



And have sweet Hattie make us some fresh squeezed OJ
We were also able to hang out with all these cousins too!



and swim in this amazing pool, which had a super fast slide (pretty scary in the dark) above the hot tub. Since we went at night I wasn't able to get pictures of the whole pool...but let me just say it was amazing...it felt like we were at a resort. When really it was just the neighbors pool:) Here are some wonderful poses from Chip and Becky!
