summertime

Days are longer. Days are lazy. Lotsa summertime fun...

lotsa bike rides... our friend Adrian loaned us one of his bikes that fits Ashley a lot better than her other bike. We've been taking advantage big time (no we don't ride with George in the front basket. I may let my child fall off stages but I don't let him ride in a basket).

lotsa dressing up like a barbershop quartet. George is becoming increasingly dependent and is getting more comfortable doing his own thing, singing his own songs, changing his own diapers, fixing his own eggs benedict...

lotsa tank tops... Ashley discovered this gem and we quickly discovered that tank tops are a favorite "must have" for any southern californian baby boy. Grown men? No thanks.

tank tops pt. 2 - lotsa looking manly. George is getting bigger and bigger. At night we go into his room and look at him sleep, and are amazed at how big he's getting. Then we nestle in for a couple of episodes of our new obsession and worry about what kind of teenager he'll grow up to be. One of our friends at church commented that George walks just like me. I like to think that I do a little less arm waving and spins but... what do I know?

lotsa hangin' out with Abe. Ashley and Kimber are doing a baby swap where they take turns watching both the boys Monday-Thursday. It's been a crash course on two baby parenting and I don't know how they do it, but it's allowed them to work and more importantly, given Abe and George ample time to become very close friends and develop a very sweet little friendship.

We're heading home this week for a family reunion. Excited to see friends and family. We hope you are all having a great summer - George, Ashley & David
