Teepee

I found this tepee my mom had made for Matt and I when we were little and brought it home for the boys to play in. Notice the name on the side, she went all out. There are designs sewn on all the panels, it has windows, and a door. It is so cute. They had a blast playing in it. I'm sure there will be many more days (maybe nights) spent in it.

OPA

This is Opa! Grandpa in German. Zackary has such a wonderful relationship with all his grandparents. It is so nice to have ALL of them so close by. Opa sat and read a few books to Zackary. Notice... he is even holding Impostor Monkey and Zackary has Real Monkey.

Sticky Tabs

This poor dog is getting lots of LOVE from Zackary lately and being such a good sport about it. He is getting hugs all the time and Zackary is beginning to try to pick him up and take him places. Luckily he picks him up around the waste and not by his neck or legs. The story behind this picture...
Zackary found some sticky labels in our desk drawer and thought they were the greatest stickers. He could pull them out one by one and stick them to everything in our house, obviously Otis too. I'm pretty sure they are the never ending pack of labels because I think I've had them since college. I had to leave them on most of the day because Aaron just had to see it, the labels made us laugh all day!

By the way...I have continued to find labels everywhere and it has been almost 2 weeks. They somehow have made it outside, in my purse, in our drawers etc. I laugh every time I see one.

6 Months

Lane turned 6 months! Time has sure flown by. He is growing up so fast, right before our eyes. At 6 months he weighs in at 18lbs 5ozs and is 27 1/2 inches tall. We have officially graduated to the big boy car seat. So long to the easy carrier, we don't have and infant anymore! I have forgotten how fun this age is. Squeals, raspberries, hair pulling, getting really messy with baby food, and new things everyday! Lane is so much fun he has such a sweet personality and still loves to be in the center of everything. He is loving his big brother...watching him all day, always looking for him, and laughing at him. Happy 6 months Lane. We love you!

This is Lane's classic look.
