The past six weeks

Whew!  I finally got some pictures loaded- hooray!  They are not in order but I am just going to go with it.

Over July 4th weekend we went to Rob's parent's house for a family reunion.  We had a fun relaxing time except for the fact that I came down with a nasty cold.  When we got home we were excited to pick the cherries from our three trees.  We had so many we gave them away, Brenna sold some on the street corner, and we ate a lot ourselves.
This photo shows Rob and the kids (some of them) with his Grandma Walker.
The pirates on a fun treasure hunt put together by Grandma Weaver.
Aarrgh!
Sydney showing off her cute outfits, smiles, and -in some cases- frowns.

Oh yes- and Seth modeling our new used trampoline.  Does that make sense?  I told Rob that since we were having a baby we would be a bit housebound this summer and I would like to get the kids a tramp.  We found one off cragislist the night before I had my baby!
My sister Heidi and her fiancee Sam came to visit us one weekend.  We didn't get a picture of Sam- sorry!- but here is one of Heidi holding her niece.
Some well-loved bears enjoying the baby swing.



Ah- here we are getting back to the cute smiles.  Sydney is starting to smile on demand now, and is starting to coo.  She is also on her way to becoming pleasantly plump (just as a baby should be in my opinion).

And here we have another photo showcasing our cherries- just a mere fraction of the harvest. Yum!

Sorry about your cold-- summer colds seem so unjust.

Your cherry trees are beautiful. The cherries look delicious.

Cute photos of the kids. Sydney looks like a charmer.

Yea!!! Sydney is so cute! I love when they get chubby. She has such a cute smile! I think she looks like Seth/Rob as I'm sure everyone says.

And those cherries! Wow. I wish I could've eaten some. :( I'm sorry you got a bad cold - I guess that shows how much I've talked to you lately because i didn't even know! That's no fun.

We can't wait to see you in a week! Ahh! I need to go pack. :)
