Saturday Morning at the Park

Big news - Meg has another tooth coming in! One of the corners on her top left side has broke through. The one on the right is close, but has not come through yet. She has been a little cranky.... *sigh*

I'm starting my half marathon training and Meaghan is my training partner, riding along in her BOB! We were out pretty early Saturday morning and after our walk, we stopped off at the park across from our subdivision for some fun!

I was glad that I took my camera along, as we found a bush full of beautiful butterflies!

We found a flock of birds... ... and a bunch of bunnies!
Rolling along!
She wasn't so sure about this swing thing - look at the death grip!
Well, maybe this is not so bad.
OK - this is fun!



Oh a shiny bolt!
Chilling in the swing! My smart dog Biscuit...
... who has learned very fast that the best place to lay is under the high chair! It rains food!
Now we're hoping this tropical storm Fay is blown far, far away. It's going to be a rainy day tomorrow - all schools are closed. Hopefully our power stays on so we can stay entertained watching the Little Einsteins!

Go Team USA!!!

In all seriousness, we love watching the Olympics around here. I've been waiting all summer for these games and the TV has been on every night! Last night was great - Nastia and Shawn going gold and silver!

For fun and nostalgia... an old SNL clip revisited!!

Balloons and Kitchen Pantry Destruction!

There is a definite advantage to going to the grocery store during the day on a Saturday.... we had ladies practically chasing Meg and I around the store trying to give us balloons, crackers, and coloring books! Balloons are a hit around this house!





But balloons only keep the little explorer distracted for so long before the open pantry door is spotted!
Yep... busted!
This is the face I get when I say "Not for babies!"...



Daddy's race drinks and gels come in all sorts of fun packets and tubes.... they also make great noise makers!
The many faces of Meg!!!






OK, back to the balloons!
She's such a little busy bee! I wouldn't have it any other way!

Summer Fun!

Meg is having a blast playing in her little pool this summer!














Biscuit mostly watches.... wishing the pool were bigger so she could join in too!


Wet dogs stay outside...



Another morning of pool time - now sporting the "Pebbles" hairdo!!



Happy 9 month Birthday Monkey! Lots of singing and raspberries to celebrate!



Meaghan has her 9 month checkup next week... I'll be sure to post her stats! I'm sure she is well over 20 pounds.... she is heavy. No walking yet and I think she has a top tooth ready to start coming in any day now!
