First Firestation Trip!

This last weekend we went to a Lakeside Bible Camp Staff reunion party on Whidbey Island. One of the people that currently work at the camp is a volunteer firefighter and so he took all of us to the firestation to let the kids romp through the firetruck. It seemed like they had a fun time. we took it as a photo opportunity. we're discovering the joy of having a baby and a cool camera = lots of fun photo opps. here's a few.

What a cutie.

On another note. Keegan has been pretty fun lately. He's mumbling all the time saying things like "baboo" "mom mom" "Da da da" and just plain trying to have conversations. last night at the dinner table my friend Christine asked Keegan if he really could talk but he was just keeping it secret and he shook his head "no" as if he was answering her question. it was hilarious.

Tonight at the dinner table it was babbling on and on and laughing at his own babbling as if he was telling a funny story. He is a real kick.

!!!!HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!
I've been wanting a cute garden gnome for a couple of year now but it hasn't really happened. we can't find the perfect one for our yard! and i dont think Brent really like them... soo this year i got my perfect Gnome...



Here's Keegan at our baby class!! look at all the cute babies in their costumes... priceless...


uh oh Georgette what do you think you're doing...

AH!

Keegan These Days

Keegan had his first "uh-oh" he pulled the plant off the stand. I wondered how Brent would handle Keegan's messes and he did great with it! we laughed it off and moved the plant up higher. So proud of my exploring son and understanding husband!


These days Keegan cruises all over the house and backyard in his walker! He LOVES it! He could chase Charlie or a ball most of the day in his walker.



This is a typical Keegan face lately, accompanied with a monkey "woo" grunt. It looks funny in a photo but in person it's pretty cute.


A couple time a week Keegan and I walk to the park and go swinging. Another favorite of his. He could be in a horrible mood until he gets on that swing. It's odd how he doesn't like the house swing we have for him but he loves the outdoor one!

Keegans first co-bath

Some friends Kelly and Ryan came to visit this weekend! Carter and Keegan took a bath together last night and it was sooo funny to watch them play in the tub! Keegan LOVES to splash! When he is in the tub thats all he does. I get SOAKED every night. Kelly and I got really wet last night while both of the boys were splashing and having so much fun.

Keegan found his toes!

Charlie and Keegan hanging out in the living room... i think they are going to be great pals. Keegan lights up when Charlie is around and Charlie just loves to lick and clean up after Keegs

This last week Keegan found his toes! Its been fun to watch him play with his feet and suck on his toes. It's great too that he can entertain him self for a few minutes.

Labor day weekend we spent with some if my college friends down in sisters oregon. it was a lot of fun but too short. we're expanding, two babies and one on the way!

Keegan celebrated his friends OSU game last weekend too. I was excited to dress him in his Orange and crack out the OSU gear friends bought us. look at that cool OSU Bottle and onsie!

Labor day we also spent time with Dean and Christel and their gals. Amy chased Charlie around all weekend. When they were leaving Amy grabbed some of charlies treat and put him on his leash and informed us that Charlie would be going home with them. We thought that was really cute that she packed him all up. We got to keep him though.

Cannon Beach!

I grew up going to the coast with my family and for the first time I got to take MY family to the same coast to the same cabin! Not sure how much longer we'll be able to do that as my parents are thinking the cabin might not be in the family much longer, so it was fun to bring Keegan up to the coast.

We did most of the typicals. Walked to Haystack rock, strolled around downtown, bought taffy from Bruce's. Sat in the sand watching Charlie chase the birds. Gave Keegan a bath in the the same sink that I too took a bath in as a baby. Christine worked at a cafe down there this summer so we got to spend some time with her too! Good times. I love the coast. Here's come pics.

haha.

Keegan misses his cousins

Some sweet shots of Keegs and his cousins.

I love this last picture of Hudson and Keegan. There were lots of pictures before that where they are happy and laughing together and then after a few minutes Hudson realized Keegan was sitting on his beloved blanket haha. Keegan's like "whats happening?"

We miss the family but its good to be back home and have some stability in life. It took Keegan just about two weeks to get readjusted and back on a good sleeping pattern. I'm soo thankful for that.

Our good friends loaded us their Johnney Jump up and it has been so fun to watch Keegan jump and jump away. Not to mention give our arms a rest from all the jumping shananigans. He LOVES it! He jumps and jumps and laughs and screeches! Its the best invention!

We also started Keegan on some rice cereal since we got home! I'm excited to start him on some food but also feeling a little sad about the process of starting to wean him. I know it still will be a while but its his first step to becoming seperate and not needing me as much!
