2 Months

Ok so almost 2 months has past since my last post! So much has been happening around here and it's only going to get busier! In October things should slow down a little around here.
Here are some pics of a few of the things we've been up to during these past two months. :-)

I smashed up the van :-( Now we own an 04 Toyota Sienna :-)

Smashed up Van...Guess the color of the car I hit :-P
Wishing...
'Bridge building' :-P So cute!
Proudly showing off her metal!
Rachel's GRAD!! (Sherene and Aaron came down to celebrate) :-)
Sherene did Rachels hair.. .super cute!
Excited!
Miriam is 5!! Growing so fast!
Ice Cream sandwich cake is the best kind of summer cake :-)
A road trip to Winnipeg!! Daddy had to stay home and work so Mommy went with the three kids... Sherene, Aaron and Rachel drove in Rachel's new-to-her car.
Story time with Uncle Byron <3 br="br">
Auntie Nicole teaching Dylan how to do his hair :-P
Snuggles with Auntie Sherene <3 br="br">
Some beach time!
Big Air
Making castles in the sand with Auntie Rachel <3 br="br">
Lydia snoozing on Nana at the beach (Lydia doesn't fall asleep on very many people!)
Hair cuts from Nana :-)
These two are more alike than I thought... both can talk your ear off and LOVE jewelry/anything shiny... lol
Chatting with Auntie Miranda.
Mom's 49th birthday! What did the kids buy her? an old school skateboard like she used to have when she was a kid (nicole's idea) :-) She loves it and uses it all the time! Yup, my 49 year old mother skateboards!
Dress up with Uncle Leighton. We took him home with us for 2 months :-)
Peas from the garden!
We have LOADS of tomatoes!!! Can't wait to try one (this pic was taken a month ago)... some of them are orange now!
Matthew and Byron re-surfaced the patio (this is only 1/2 done, I don't have a done pic of the patio yet, but it is done)  :-)
Playing at the (splash) park waiting for (great) Oma to arrive for her Surprise birthday party!
 Fun at the splash park
Leighton earning his keep :-) (Byron is here for the summer too! He came back from MB with Bekah) Notice the tomatoes!! They are huge!
Cup stacking - Uncle Leighton taught them that! (Uncle Leighton is into something called speed stacking, look it up, it's pretty neat!)
A BIG stack!
HOT and HUMID days! (and our little Lydia is chubbing up... I switched her over to formula now. I only nurse her once in the morning now, I'm hoping we can keep that feed for a while :-)
Beans from the garden. This pic makes the amount look small, but it was about 2 suppers for all 6 of us. (Bekah wasn't home and Lydia doesn't eat beans otherwise it would have been all 8 of us)
Some Sunday morning sibling snuggles. Aww!
