What we have been up to...

This is our month of July. Better late than never.

The proud older brother. This is us ready to leave the hospital. Bode is holding his hand; he always wants to hold his hand. Bode always wants to make Max apart of everything too. Whevener he sees something he is excited about he says, "Baby Max wants to see, see baby Max;." or when he is playing or eating he always shares and says, "Baby Max wants some, here baby Max."

************

We went to the carnival with Heather and Luke and Bailee awhile ago. I think these things are more for the parents than the kids. It's so much fun to me to take Bode to things I know he'll love. Bailee wasn't quite sure about the rides at first so Bode tried to comfort her and put his arm around her...it didn't work at first but then after a few rides she decided that they were fun.
The 'spaceship' was Bode's favorite.

Family reunion on the Workman side. We rented out Veteran's pool, it was pretty fun! I am taking the picture.

The dinosaur museum. Bode was a little scared to get too close to this dinosaur shark thing for the picture.
This is Max's cousin Dylan. Max is only 11 days older. Dylan's hair is so cute, it sticks straight up everywhere. I am so excited that Max is going to have a cousin so close.
One day Brian had Max and went and woke Bode up from a nap. Brian laid Max next to Bode and when Bode woke up and saw him he got so excited and just snuggled up and stared at him. It was one of those moments as a parent that it is all worth it.

The Roberts Bear Lake '08.

This is it, what we do everyday.

Max with half of his swim gear on. (thanks to Jade and Heidi)
Bode dumped mud all over himself.
This is what the kids do all day. They had so much fun!!
Grandpa and Max.

August...so far

Park City '08. My family went and stayed in Park City at the Mountainside Marriott for a week. It was a lot of fun and nice to have so much help. All the kids riding the Alpine slide and all the other things they got there.


Bode and Kate were entertained on the kiddie rides for awhile.
