Guess who turned two months in August! Little Layla is awake and alert more and more each day. And with that comes more sweet smiles! Our sleepy little newborn has already outgrown her first wardrobe, and is turning into an adorable little baby!

Avery assisted me with taking her 2 month photos. Here they are together. He is such a proud big brother!

Then all the boys came in for a shot together. Kieron wasn’t wearing his glasses, which have transitional lenses, so when they were all looking up at me, he was complaining that it was too bright. Poor guy could barely open his eyes!

She loves bath time!

And she loves her activity mat. She gets so excited when she kicks or hits the hanging toys.

She’s generally a pretty happy little girl

And with Mommy. She’s definitely not spoiled. Nope, not at all. 😉

Here’s some more of what we were up to in July.

At the end of June, Avery & Kieron spent a week at Camp Invention. They enjoyed it so much, we decided to continue it at home with Silas. Here they are taking apart our old vacuum and seeing how it worked.

“Look ma, no hands!”

Watching The Sandlot together. The boys were all freaked out of “the beast”.

Avery attended tennis camp again this summer. Lo and behold, his good buddy Gideon was there too. We had him over to play one day afterwards, and decided to practice together at one of the local parks. They had me running around the court too!

Grammy and Papa were in the midst of selling their house in Texas and moving out here (yay!) when Layla was born. Here they are meeting their granddaughter!

How can I not take a picture of this?

This was effective for a while

The boys at Lakewood, where Jonathan used to row

At Erik Johnson’s bench. Erik was Jonathan’s college roommate and rowing buddy. He was working as a pilot in Alaska when his plane disappeared in 2004. Jonathan enjoyed sharing this and stories about him with the boys.
