So my friends and family can be up on life here in GR

'But be sure to fear the Lord and serve him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things he has done for you.'

Gabey the Baby is 11 months!



Was caught splashing in the toilet
Smiles for the camera
Taking on the stairs
Played in the Great Lakes at Meijer Gardens
Pulls up (all the time)
Purposefully sits back down
Got an incisor
Cruises and transfers
Holds on with one hand (hot shot)
Loves graduation open houses
Holds his own pouch
Life cereal is LYFE
Loves shakers and rattles
Doesnt like grass
Visited Lake Michigan
Puts things in and out
Celebrated Father's Day
Puts all the dirt and things in his mouth
Still thinks his sister is hilarious
Gets jokes
Waives bye bye

And now for the outtakes. This was by far the hardest month to get a picture!

A quick trip to Tulip Time! Feeeeeeeel the heritage!



Simple Saturdays, how we love theeeeeeee!!!

 First family biker! yay!

 To the ice cream shop! (of course)


Loving on Lena! Molly has just been taken by our Pastor's new daughter Lena, later in the month she held, fed and put her to sleep!

 Good morning babies!!!!

Things deteriorate around the house when the baby sleeps and she's bored!


 Ahhhh playmate is up!! Yay!

Gabe has finally turned into a pro sleeper! Bring on the sleep photos!

 Future?

10 months for our little one(s)

Ugh...tree removal. I'm so ready for the energy companies to get out of my yard. On the flip side, Gabe was enthralled!

Wagon ride around the neighborhood with deliveries! I'm not sure a career at UPS is for him...

 It's water table season! Boy do I love this time of year!

Gabe time! While I do love when they both nap, spending 1 on 1 time is fun too!


Congrats Grad! we're so proud of this young lady and looking forward to what God has in store for her!

 Recently Molly has figured out taking pictures. Some of the series we end up with are just great!


Aunt Audree and Cousin Calvey came to see us!!!!! yayayayay!!! Fun times on the floor!


Last minute date night! Food trucks and the greenhouse! yayayayayayay!

We saw our cousins for a hot minute over the weekend too. Aunt Lindsay came with a coordinating quilt for Lydia! Oh joy!!!!

Church baby sleeping in the nursery! ALLLLLL THE LOVE EYES!

My parents are hosting a Calvin student this summer, we LOVE Sam! 

 Happy Memorial Day!!!! Cheese! (crackers!)


We've gotten into the habit of going to the Veteran's cemetery sometime in the weekend. Fun to see the flags and be reminded of those who have given their lives defending our freedom. And thank you for your service Sargent Taylor!
 



We also either enjoy the parade in Walker or participate, depends on baby situation! This year we were participants :)


Gabe has learned to smile for the camera! :) :) :)

 First Sandy ride. This was his face when she stopped. hehe!

Happy Graduation season! Peter's nephew graduated this year so we partied with the fam!


Handler time out. Ladies: marry a man who will carry his work documents in a car seat! :) It was all the sweeter because I took this picture when I was coming home from being out for the evening with my girlfriends. Marry a man who lets you do that too! Two thumbs WAY up!

Driveway parties are back in season! YAY!!!!!



Handler time out: Yes. This is me. Let me know if you're available! :) :) :)

 That's a wrap on May! We've jumped into June and are off and running!
