new tricks & 4 of july weekend fun

garrett has been practicing some new tricks this week, but only when his moms aren't around. our awesome day care woman was out of town this week, so garrett spend some time with our friends while we went to work. trick number one: standing completely unassisted with his hands in the air. trick number two: walking along furniture. we tried to get him to show us, but it seems as if he's decided that he wants to keep us in suspense fora little while longer.

the three of us had a great time at the crane family reunion last weekend at da cabin. weather was beautiful during the day and very very cold at night. it was our first practice run for sleeping in the tent because we are going to be camping for a week in august. lessons learned: bring more blankets or sleeping bags. garrett loved hanging out with all of his family at the reunion and showing off his crawling/slithering skills in the yard.

we spend the second half of the weekend with mama's family, including her family from germany that flew back over the pond on sunday. we all had a great time visiting with them one last time during their vacation here.

we also managed to squeeze in a quick visit with garrett's friend amelia (and her mom melissa & aunt courtney) over the weekend. the two enjoyed playing in the pool outside.

Hi Sarah & Cindy -

I love all the pics with the props...However, if you could get a picture of Garrett while he's shoulder deep in a box of Fiddle Faddle that would be great....ok, thanks!

unc b- do they still make fiddle faddle? are you suggesting we go grama leisa style (props, staged pictures) and try to recreate that classic brett photo? it would be funny, especially since people tend to say that g resembles you!
