Camp is over...

Today was a very sad day because we had to say goodbye to Lauren after such a great week! Orion is really going to miss his Lulu playing with him and is stuck with boring Mommy and Daddy now. We had a few hours this morning to play with Auntie Mimi too, Orion kept saying Mimi and then pointing to Mary...just in case she forgot what her name is!

There are also a few pictures from our trip to the park on Saturday morning before Mary got here.....lots and lots of pictures to put up today. They are a little out of order as well, but I had 73 to look at!

More fun with Lauren

Lauren making cupcakes...they were yummy!

Uncle Kevin giving Lauren her first online poker lesson.....

Lauren and her Uncle Kevin being silly

Me and my favorite nut!

Another one of me and Lauren

Lauren started this yesterday morning, smelling Orion's feet with his Nemo and telling him that his feet were stinky. Orion thought it was quite funny and then took the Nemo and smelled his own feet with it. I had Lauren show Kevin when he got home from work and we got the same reaction, snorts and all!

Lots of fun!

Don't smile.......

Yesterday we went to McD's for lunch and Orion decided to not smile in any of the pictures. He was having fun sitting on my lap watching Lulu go in the tunnels but he didn't want to go in with her. We went for a walk yesterday and it started raining!!!!! Lauren and I are so sweet we were worried that we would melt, but we didn't. Orion was nice and dry because he was in his wagon under the canopy.

Reading with Lauren

I picked up Lauren today and she is staying with us for the entire week. As soon as we walked in the house Orion got a HUGE smile on his face and has been by her side all night. Every time she leaves the room he looks at me and says "Lulu?". He already has her reading every book in the house to him. We are very happy that Lauren is here!!!

Silly boy

This is how Orion likes to eat now, taking bites all by himself instead of having us cut little pieces for him. It's great to finally have teeth! The red stuff on his face are pieces of strawberry.



This is a clip of Orion watching Tommy's video. I wish I would have gotten the first reaction because as soon as the song starts and he hears "Boom Boom" he said that and started dancing. Tommy will hopefully sing the song for Orion next time we see him.

What a fun day!

"Auntie Cathy....show me how to golf!"

"Is this the right way to ride this?"

"I figured it out!"

Hudson and his Mommy!

"Why go down on your butt when you can run down the slide?"

"Orion I am trying to get down the slide here...."

"I am under this hat....somewhere"

"Cheese Auntie Becky"

We went to visit Hudson on Sunday and the highlight of the day for me was that Hudson said "Becky"! Even Sarah heard him say it so I wasn't just imagining it. It melted my heart!
