It's July Already?

Today is July 1st. I'm having a hard time believing that. June flew by, but I knew it would. I was supposed to do 3 audits in June (only did 2 and had to reschedule one for August), the lab is under construction, and we had lots of plans over the weekends. So here is a quick recap of June.

Anders was cute a lot of the time. He will be 10 months old on July 4th - hard to believe.

He started eating egg yolks. This one didn't last very long, it is too similar to a ball and ended up on the dining room floor. Lots of stuff ends up on the dining room floor these days.

We had a free weekend after my first audit. We had breakfast outside one morning - it was very nice. Anders loves blueberries and strawberries.

And after we went to an art festival in our neighborhood, he got to go skinny dipping.

The next weekend it was down to Iowa as Jessica and Mike got married! I was running late for the wedding and didn't grab the camera, but Will had it at the rehearsal. Mike is already proving to be a great guy by buying Jessica that great dress before they got married! The wedding was very fun, as you might have guessed if you have seen the pictures on some other blogs.

Joyce came to Iowa City to help out with the babysitting during the wedding activities. Here she is teaching Anders some secret sign.

Not sure what these two are doing, but they are pretty darn cute in their pajamas.

Clara was very cute. Henry was there too, but somehow avoided the camera.

Anders LOVED this wagon. He pushed it back and forth from room to room. We just got one for him last night. I found it on Craig's list and got it for half price! The minute we got home with it, Anders crawled up to it, stood up and started walking with it. It is very funny to see him walking.

A few days after getting back from Iowa, we were off to Utah to see Tom, Emily and Alex and so I could go do another audit. Alex was very, very helpful and Anders thought she was just great.

This was our makeshift high chair designed by Will and Tom (I assume, all I know is that I got back to Tom's Thursday night and this was there). A belt from a robe and a stool from Will's grandpa's house. Other than the opening at the back, it worked very well.

Anders made great music.

And he used the papasan base as a walker - it also worked well as a baby jail when you needed a few minutes to eat dinner and keep Anders away from the stairs.

We went to a very nice arboretum in Salt Lake City. We also enjoyed the farmers market and the Arts Fest. The weather was super nice and it was great to see everyone again. Emily, like Henry, was there but managed to not get her picture taken. Thanks Tom, Alex and Emily for having us!

Finally, Anders found that the keyboard also worked well as a step.

Now it is July. We were supposed to go to the lake next week, but for various reasons are staying home. Maybe we will actually catch up on some stuff around the house...
