Little Green Hank

Avocados this week . . .

Green beans are next!

Take Me to the River . . .

We are lucky enough to live right near Bear Creek, where Hank put his feet in the Colorado water for the very first time. It was cold, but he was so enthralled with how his feet felt in the sand that he kept cooing and playing in the water for quite some time.

Afterwards, Hank just chilled out as he listened to the water rushing by.

Ah, this is the life!

Our First Father's Day

Hank had a great time celebrating Father's Day with his daddy.

Happy First Father's Day, Ari!

Father's Day Weekend Family Fun

Today, the Matz Family came over for a family gathering. It was a very busy day!

Sierra played all kinds of games.

Radar got lots of love.

Sierra struck a pose and . . . .

so did Ryder and Hank.

Here's to cousin love and more good times to come!

Hank's First Bite

Look who's ready to munch on solid food for the very first time! After a couple of tries, Hank thought the highchair experience was very cool.

Then it was time to try some rice cereal made with some of Mommy's milk.

Hmmm . . . .

I think we have a winner!

Morning Buddies

Hank and Radar are becoming the best of friends these days. Each morning Radar joins us on the floor for playtime.

He always smothers Hank with kisses.

Hank doesn't evevn mind tummy time so much when his buddy keeps him company. Before we know it, Hank will be chasing Radar around the house!

To Berthoud We Go!

Today was Hank's first time ever traveling to Berthoud to see Cindy and Grandpa Eli.

He had lots of fun playing footsie with Cindy.

After a big family lunch, Hank even got to sit on the tractor with Grandpa.

What an incredible time we had. Thanks Cindy and Grandpa!

A Hail of a Day!

After a week of heat, the golf ball sized hail came down. Springtime is upon us!

UFOs

Hank is now an official eyewitness to the wonders of bubbles.

Just another day at play . . .

If You're Happy and You Know It . . .

Enough said!

A Day with Cousin Sierra

Cousin Sierra and Aunt Rachel came down to Evergreen for the day to play. First, we took a trip to Tiny Town where we rode a train, walked around a kid sized town and played on the playground. It was unbelievably cold for June, but that didn't stop Hank or Sierra from having a good time.

After Tiny Town, we came back to the house where Sierra and Hank played under the tent and hung out on the couch.

We can't wait for the next family play date!

Bumbo Boy

Sitting with support, but sitting nonetheless!
