Snack time

Playing hard always works up an appetite.

Daddy-Son Day

I worked today so Porter and David got to hang out all day together.  They played hard and worked hard.  Since I don't leave Porter very often for hours at a time, it always makes me a little emotional.  

After work we met up with friends for dinner, then we met up with other friends to play at the park.

These two had so much fun at the splash pad.

As I was sitting in bed tonight I felt the baby kicking.  It's not the first time this pregnancy, but it is always so exciting to feel that little life inside of you.  And, to think that this little person is only about 5 inches long can exert such force that David and I can both feel them. Love it!  We are already calling the baby a girl, so I guess we'll find out next week if we 're right.  David is so adamant that she is that I have found myself talking about her too:).

Snails

David and Porter went for an early am walk and saw lots of snails.  

He wasn't quite sure at first.

Lately...

We've been busy.  Porter's preoccupation with bikes has increased and he can regularly need founding signing and saying "bikes".  David takes him down to the parking garage to check out the bikes and ride around.  I picked up a little 4 wheeler trike for him that I hope will tide him over until we can find a bike.

 

In preparation for Pioneer Day we went to the Youth parade and also previewed the floats for the big parade today.  Porter loved the dinosaur float.  Can you see his look over wonder?!

 He is signing "more ".

Then he gleefully ran around with all the other kids until he got so excited he bit his balloon and it popped.  So sad.

Can you spot our little Godzilla in the bottom left?

We have also been enjoying a refreshing treat pretty much every afternoon.  It's hot here:).

The Canyons

Play date at The Canyons at Liberty Park.  Porter loved it.

Before the action, Porter enjoyed a little slip in the mud.
