Tovi and friends.

Taran and his bathrobe

Our Creative Gymnast

Just last week Taran announced that he had a new trick. Here he is showing it off to us. He does a backwards flip holding onto the bars of this shelf.

Happy 4th at Howard Amon Park

Eating Watermelon.

Watermelon, Pineapple and Banana Chips! Mmmmmm

Tovi taking a nap in the shade with mommy.

Taran and Daddy braving the freezing cold water of the Columbia River.

Taran building sand castles.

..and playing with other kids on the beach.

Kewpies

I couldn't resist buying these on Ebay. Taran's friend Kristy had a Kewpie doll at her house and Tovi's eyes just lit up when she saw it. The resemblance to her was just too cute. They don't make dolls of this style anymore so I was glad to find collectors that were selling what I wanted.

Daddy is home!

Connor returned two days early and surprised us during Taran's bath time. Taran climbed out of the tub to give dad soapy hugs and kisses and to check out dad's new whiskers.

Tovi and Daddy got some time together too. zzzzzzzzzzzzz

Tovi's Toes

It is so much fun to watch Tovi play with her toes.
