When I sat down to do this post, I didn't think we had much to post about, but I was wrong. Apparently we have been keeping busy. We had a barbecue with my roommate from college and her family. It was fun for our kids to meet some new friends.
My sister's family entertained us with their fireworks on the 4th of July. Kian was perplexed about the whole experience and wasn't sure it was fun, but he didn't cry.
We went to the days of '47 family fun fair this year and had a great time, despite the rain. There were 3 bounce houses, but 2 were deflated due to wind. But the one that was up was the princess one, so all was well.
Kian was there, too.
Lily graduated from her on-line preschool.
We've been trying to teach Kian a different method of traveling, but so far he's not convinced there is a better way than the upside-down inchworm method.
We still have two very cute little girls.
Their daddy took them camping in the backyard. Kate lasted about 10 minutes before she came back into the house.
We returned to our annual tradition of attending the children's pioneer day parade, after missing it last year. We missed a lot of things last year.
We hiked around Silver Lake and even most of the way to Twin Lakes.
Kian has a few new tricks. One is waving and saying "Hi." Another is using his pincher grasp to put food into his mouth with his left hand. Hooray! We also gave him a haircut today with the clippers. Pictures will be coming forthwith, but consider these the before pictures, because of course we only thought to get the camera half-way through.

We did miss so many things last summer! Looks like you have been up to some fun things!
I must say that Kian's inchworm hurts my neck, but whatever works, right? Our crazy babies!
I love the picture of you and Kian together as he scoots backward!
That is so funny about Kian. Chris used to roll everywhere or sometimes scoot along on his forehead. He used to rub his forehead raw. I remember because Grandma Longmore would tell us not to let him do that. He didn't find it necessary to crawl either.
The girls are getting so big. They are darling, as usual. Great family camping trip!
I love that kate is always wearing a skirt:)
