Lots and Lots of Pictures!

Daddy's boys! You can guarantee that when Daddy gets home he is greeted by Seth running and giving him a hug. Even Zac tries to crawl as fast as he can to get to him. It is always nice to see how much they love him.
Seth climbing the jungle jim.
Zac at the top of the slide. He had so much fun crawling around on the playground.
Mmmmmm! Rice.
Seth finishing his first homework chart. "I'm a winner!" He said excitedly. Since then he's also finish his colors and shapes workbook too.

Zac playing guitar with Daddy. If Seth hadn't been napping, we probably wouldn't have been able to get this picture.
Zac was in the middle of the hallway when Seth put all of the couch pillows around him. He was building a "maze" for them to get out of. They had lots of fun together.
At the boat picnic they had a pirate ship bounce house. Seth ate his lunch really fast just so he could play.
Hope you enjoyed the pictures. We probably won't be posting any new stuff until after our trip to Nevada, so be prepared for lots of fun stuff in a couple weeks!

Who Wants A Baby???

Helps keep you awake at all hours! Teaches you lots of patience! Can you tell what kind of week we've had? Zac, Seth, and I all have a bug. And well the picture is how Zac is taking it. However if you look closely you can sort of see his two teeth. I guess we can be thankful that we are sick now, instead in two weeks when we'll be driving to NV. Zac loves the flash of the camera so he did start to cheer up after I took a handful of pictures.

Happy Late Father's Day!

Just wanted to say Happy Late Father's Day to all of you dads out there. We got Ryan a few cool things. One being the Indiana Jones Lego video game. It is pretty fun to play. It sure can make you laugh with all the jokes the creators put into it. We also got him a guitar book and movies. Ryan is now the LPO (Leading Petty Officer) of his division at work. It's nice to be in charge, but usually that means more working hours. We are also super close to getting new orders to South Carolina. If it goes through we should be moving out there in January. Anyhow hope everyone has a splendid week!

Rising To New Heights!

It feels like Zac is learning things way to fast! He is now pulling himself up onto his feet. Even when not in the room you knowwhat he is doing because he lets out a high pitched squeel of delight followed by giggles. Seth is sick today, so I've been taking care of him. Hopefully he will feel better tomorrow.

Crawling!

Zachary learned to crawl on Sunday at exactly seven months old. However the batteries were dead in the camera, so we couldn't get a video until today. At first the only thing Zac would crawl too were Seth's shoes. However he now realizes how much "fun" he can have by going wherever he wants. Zac also has two teeth now. They are not grown in enough to get a good picture, but they are definitely broken through the gum and on their way.

Notice the little patch of blue by Seth's elbow? That's Zac's foot. This was suppose to be a cute picture of Zac, but somebody jumped in the way. Wouldn't know who this cutie is, do you?

Sweet Zachary

Today was a special day for Zac. He got his baby blessing from his Daddy. It's a special blessing to give him his name, sort of like a Christening. It was Ryan's first time too, and he did a good job. Zac is also getting his first tooth. It has almost broken through his gum. He is also starting to pull himself up. He tries to stand but usually is on one knee and one foot before he falls.

Camping!

This Friday we took the boys camping at the ORV campground in Tahuya State Forest. It's about an hour away from our house. As you can see we had hot dogs for dinner. Seth really liked putting them in the fire. Of course he would take a bite in the middle of cooking the hot dog and the continue to cook it over the flame.
The evening was beautiful. Nice sunny skies. Zac really enjoyed being outside. He really liked to try and eat the grass. It was almost pointless to put him on a blanket because he would just scoot off.

Sleeping started off well. We were all nice and tucked into ours bags, but as the night went on it got colder, and colder, and colder. I moved Zac into my bag with me and used his blankets to add extra layers to Ryan, Seth and me. Then Seth woke up and ended up in Ryan's sleeping bags with him.
We survived the night and the day warmed up pretty nice. Of course we took the dirtbike with us. Ryan got lots of riding time in and even took Seth for a couple rides. Seth came back from one of them saying, "Mommy we flew and landed like and airplane." Yeah, Ryan got the "LOOK" from me. He assures me that they were being safe and that they caught air on a little bump by accident. I even took a little ride around the parking lot on my own and with Seth.
All in all it was a fun trip.
