Hayden's Birthday Buddy is in Portland
Hayden and Henry are just a couple months away from their birthdays. Hayden will be 16 and Henry will be 1 on August 17th.
Another August boy... Cam will be 12.
"4ths" being goofy.
Joylynn came with the kids. If Rylan hadn't had to work I would have gotten a picture of all 8 of our kids. We still had lots of fun though. We had
Pizza on the Porch
We eat on the porch a lot during the nice weather. Since it's covered we even spend time out there in rainy weather. The kids decorate the porch and steps and sidewalk with chalk drawings or swing and swing and swing on my porch swing.
Seven all together
With kids living in different ends of Washington State having all of the grands together is going to be a rare occurrence but hopefully I'll have a camera nearby whenever they are.
They are from L-R Genevieve (4), Danika (2), Katelyn (3mos), Henry (10 mos), Rowan (2), Wyatt (6) and Garrett (10 days)
Garrett's First Bath
I have had the blessing of giving a first bath to Joylynn's last 3 kids.
He was so cozy and snuggly after his bath. He likes his Gramma.
Friday morning BREAKFAST
Harlan and I each usually have Friday morning plans but mine were changed due to work scheduling and Har cancelled his so we could hang out with some of our "kids". We went to Milos. If you look closely you may see Henry signing "more" meaning food. He is so cute.
The babies were kept busy with toys and Grampa's "five legged tickle spider" attacks.
Rowan and his parents were playing a rousing game of "Slap-Jack" on the other end of the table.
Rowan getting ready, two-fork eating and then checking out the sculpture art outside of the restaurant.
All done and ready for a rest.
