Bad Mommy - Late Father's Day & 17 Months Update


Wow. June has been crazy. First, George and I took care of our friends Bethany and Alex's little boy, Eljas, who is four months. We had him during the day for two weeks. George adored him and had very little jealousy, which was great. I think he even learned to say Eljas (pronounced Ell-yes) but his version sounded more like 'lettuce'. He also learned to say 'baby'.


We did lots of visiting this month. We saw cousin Alli - and discovered George REALLY likes balloons.


We saw my friend Lisa and her little boy Finn. We went out to lunch and learned that leisurely, quiet lunches are most definitely a thing of the past!

We went to George's girlfriend :) Maria's first birthday party. She belongs to family friends Matthew and Jennifer.
George REALLY enjoyed his cupcake. And we had a good time playing on all their swings and slides.


Father's Day turned out absolutely beautiful and we had a barbecue at our house.

He is such a ham!


And already running away from Cousin Kaylei...

And best of all, hanging out with Daddy.

I can't believe George is seventeen months. Almost a year and a half...wow. We're in teething hell right now, but other than that, we're having a pretty fun summer, keeping VERY busy.

Water Table Fun!


I stalked and finally found this water table I'd been wanting for George. I knew I was in trouble when it was featured on the Today Show. But I managed to find him one and he loves it! Here are a few outdoor shots from today.

Tuckered Out

George had a busy week. We both did!

Last weekend Gigi came and spent the night and wore George right out. Thank goodness! I was able to get my garden planted and even started re-covering some outdoor chairs.

Wheeeee!

Starting last Monday, I am watching my girlfriend Bethany's little boy, Eljas. George decided he was a baby too and tried (unsuccessfully) to get back into his Bumbo seat.

Here's Eljas. What a cutie!

The boys hanging out. Yes, George looks homeless! Taking care of two kids is hard!


George outside at his pool enjoying the hot weather.


Yes, it's June, but reindeer antlers are ALWAYS fun during meals.
