Almost 18!

I can't believe that he is almost 18! On August 22, Chris will be 18 years old. I just can't believe that it has been that long ago that we welcomed this sweet, beautiful, and I mean beautiful baby into our lives. I must say he was one of the most beautiful babies I have ever seen. And I have seen many babies! All my babies are beautiful but Chris was the darkest haired baby we had. The next post will have some more great pictures of Chris. check out those big glasses that my sweet husband has on! hahahaha

My First Tooth!

Well it has happened! Emma has her first tooth! Bottom left. I found it while nursing her this morning. If you know what I mean. I will post pictures of her with her new tooth as soon as you can see it better.

Yeah! my baby is getting bigger. She is so precious to our whole family!

Crawling

Ok here is the first time that Emma crawled! Yeah! 8 1/2 months and here she goes. I actually got it on video so if I can remember how I will post that as well.

Tide Pools

Such wonderful stuff to touch and feel. Sea anemones and albino sea anemones (because they are in a cave and never get sunlight) Why is that biology students? And climbing the rocks, which I might add was a little more difficult for Kevin this year with the added 18 pounds on his back. And the starfish. God sure created some wonderful creatures didn't He?

Fun!

One of the greatest things about the beach is walking to the tide pools and playing with all the "sea"life. Touching it and playing with it and then putting it back of course. Such Fun!

Wildlife!

There is so much to see on the beach in Oregon. The starfish and the little fish that are trapped between sandbars and this year we saw eagles. Can you believe it Bald Eagles! Right on the beach! Amazing place!

A daddy and his daughters!

Well I will you leave with this picture for today. Look at the color of their hair. So funny the different colors. What a blessing our daughters are to us. And our sons as well! More tomorrow
