Griffin's 1st FISH!




















Husky Football Fun!

An afternoon of fun spent at Husky Stadium with Grammy and Grandpa and the HUSKY FOOTBALL TEAM!  A rare chance to get the kiddos dressed up in PURPLE and enjoy some fun!



  




















August - Part 1 (the beginning of the month)!

Play dates! Play dates! and more Play Dates! 
Summer has flown by and it has been fun to have a friend that was on maternity leave giving G, M and me someone to play with each Wednesday!  (And sometimes other days too)!

August started off with a bang meeting up with Jen & Jenn for some coffee and fun with the kiddos!  Here is Miss O babysitting the little ones!  Soon little lady you will be in charge of all the little rascals!

Fun at the coffee shop...a little destructive, but mainly just being toddlers!
 

After coffee, it was time to walk around Country Village and check out the play area, train and more!


Ahoy matey! It's the Pirate Ship!

G and his rocking horses...this was a theme in August!  If he could climb it, he could ride it!

Checking out the heavy equipment...and this is how he insists on wearing his hat now.  I promise, he has eyeballs, just likes to be a goof!

Checking out the mini train while waiting for the big train to come back!

Posing on the train!


And a shot of our other riders!  JB, OB and AB!

Group shot...hey, we are all there.  Can you spot all 6 of us?  This is what happens with 2 moms and 4 kids...it's crazy time!

I swear, he loves his sister.....I think.

The sun was out all of August and we took advantage of every second (so far)!  Saturday morning at the dog park!

Griffin with his Starbucks....he wanted to hold the cups and even threw them away for all of us.

Lunch stop at our favorite place (Ooba's) after the dog park.

YUM!

Afternoon dip...sure, why not!

Griffin being GRIFFIN.  It's really too bad that this kid lacks a personality...he makes us crack up multiple times EVERYDAY!

Miss M. So alert and starting to smile EVERY day! 


Another Wednesday and another adventure for 2 Moms, 4 Kiddos...this time it was the gym and breakfast!  

These 2 were just hanging out and catching up with each other while the bigger ones and mamas enjoyed a delicious breakfast!

Griffin is obsessed with DIP...and puts it on everything.  Not only did he use the yogurt for his granola, but he also put a little on his PB&J.  He doesn't follow in my footsteps at all.

Yummy PB&J and then BACON!

Miss O was enjoying her breakfast too...these two were pretty good with sharing.

A group shot with everyone...this hardly ever happens.

Mama selfies with my babes!

First Seahawks preseason game meant the first time to get the kiddos in their jerseys!  The game might not have gone well, but the kiddos were ready (and come on, it's preseason, it doesn't really matter).





Grammy's homemade yogurt-pops.  Delicious!

Evenings in August have meant lots of family walks to catch up and bond after the day...Griffin loves his stroller time (and his run around like a monkey time).



Chukar babysitting Miss M while mama gets a minute to dry her hair!  Thank C for being a trooper.

Friday fun with GG.

Too precious.  GG and Millie...hand in hand.

Who doesn't love a sleeping baby...and a cute headband?!?!

My WORLD (well, 50% of it).

Millie and her cousin Kate (4 weeks apart).

Activity time with G.

Miss Olivia's 2nd birthday bash...another reason to have some fun!

Millie and Drew slept through most of the excitement of the party...and were so cute doing it together.

Holding hands...YES, we will save this one. 

Party-goers!

The boys and the girls of the Meyer Fam.

PRESENT TIME.

After celebrating the day away, we headed over to Casa Rush for a Crab Boil.  YUM!


Griffin meeting his first crab..and showing "uncle" Bryan crab hands.


The kids dressed up as butterflies...G never one to miss out on the action.


Miss M and I went and spent some time visiting some of the wonderful family that she won't get a chance to meet (Mr. G needs to do this too and hopefully we will have another chance soon).  Grandma and Grandpa Boness, Uncle Jeff and Grandpa Jobs...we miss you and wish that you had a chance to meet these amazing little people.  I know you are watching down on us and enjoying seeing them grow up.

Rich, Chukar and Griffin got a special day while Millie and I were away.  They hiked, picked berries and bonded as the MEN in the family.

CHEESE!!!!


Chukar relaxing in the river.


The weekend was done and it was back to work for Griffin helping Grandpa Mike with the recycling.


Miss Millicent enjoying some sun and cuddles with Grammy Joni.

These two!  Comedy central live...if you see what G is doing, you know what he sees way too much of at our house.

Precious little girl.

Precious BIG boy.

Happy times with Grammy and Grandpa Boness while Mommy and Daddy are at work.

Back to work he goes...isn't there child labor laws?

The beginning of August has been a blast and I can't wait to pack in more fun the last few weeks...September is right around the corner and fall will be here...and of course, pack more fun for this family!  Until then...
