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.'

Gardening with Friends

With friends and cousin :)

Dig, dig, diggeroo!
 


Sometimes we get carried away!

All boys love 'the pump'


Checking out all the farm has to offer.

Water time!!!

This was the first time to the Gardens since she started walking
Game changer!

Weekends with dad

Miss M is learning early on that any time Dad gets involved, the fun goes through the roof. 

He'll get you a Pronto Pup 

AND 
ice cream when you visit Grand Haven.

He'll even spring for Sandy :)

Share his Frosty Boy

AND
not make you sit in your high chair for dinner

He's much less of a cheapo than mom :)

Ya, he is my Dad.

Daaaaaaaaads. What can you say? Can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em!

Peter loves being Miss M's dad, I think it mostly has to do with another day of gifting for him ;)


Miss M loves her Grandpy, this is mostly because of the iPhone that is usually in his front pocket ;)

I think we'll live with 'em, we've got some good ones.

Being a Baby (part 3)

Who needs a high chair when you've got your dad?!

Exploring my old plushies that got banished from my mom's house. #refugees

This is how you shop

This is how you be a Detroit Tigers fan....

Tubbie time with friends and Grammie!

 Speaking of friends, they stayed over and they play, play, played!!!


She's a walker and a climber now. All over. All the time.

 Arie stopped by my mom's to see the driveway progress and the trucks!

Drinking from the spigot

Reading is a new favorite hobby


She loves to 'drive' with her dad. Always trying to honk!

Just another day in the good life.

'They'll be worth something someday'

I suppose that's true; they're worth the joy on the face of my child. 
But that is all, not mega bucks!

I knew that someday my mom would find my old Beanie Babies in her house and send them to mine.
The day has arrived.

At least she loves them!

The spirit is willing

But the baby is uncoordinated and illogical and therefore not helpful
Cute though! Real cute!



She got the lid and dragged it over so she had a seat to sit on while going through the box



Too cute.
