July Pictures

Sunriver Trip



Brandon loved the tag-a-long bike so much that we got one at home


4th of July
We had a neighborhood BBQ and did fireworks.  It was 
Brandon's first time doing sparklers, and eating s'mores!  Emily 
slept through it all.








Picking blueberries... empty bucket, full tummy!
Emily loved them too!

Waiting for the tram in Portland
Riding the tram up the hill!
View from the top - Brandon loved the ride!

 Emily's 1st Birthday
Still using the walking toy to walk...
Silly Brandon! (Yes, those are re-purposed balloons from Brandon's birthday)
First glimpse of her present
Loving the ribbon!
Still more impressed with the ribbon than the present!
Dairy-free, soy-free cupcakes for the birthday girl















Brandon did swimming lessons this month and loved them
Playing outside with Grandma Carol and Grandpa Carl

Running in the track meet - he did the 60 meter and the 100 meter this year 
Poor Emily, with her roseola rash and her one-year immunizations
Getting into trouble!
Mr. Cool
Emily loves corn on the cob, and actually eats a fair amount now that she has two top teeth and two bottom teeth! 
Brandon taking pictures of himself with my computer webcam

He found the distortion settings... Whoa!
The kids loved looking through the clothes from Catherine and Claire - Brandon buried himself and Emily laughed every time I put a piece of clothing on her head.  Thanks Shannon!!

Emily's first time riding outside with Brandon 


Sleeping with Elmo
A completely zonked out boy!
Oh boy... Emily's first trip to the shoe department at Nordie's!
