Bowen 6 months

Bowen is 6 months old!

At his appointment Bowen weighed 20 lbs. (77%) and was 28" (97%)

Goes from hands and knees to crawling

Sleeps in his crib all night

Pulls himself up on the couch

Is sick for the first time

Still wakes up at night every 2 hours

Starts teething

Look Ma, no hands!

When Bowen first started pulling himself up on the furniture he would get so upset because he couldn't get back down.

Fair, Adventureland & the Zoo

Iowa State Fair

Ice Cream!

Going down the big slide with Dad.

Enjoying some deep fried Oreos. My favorite.

Adventureland

The kids didn't go on a ton of rides but the ones they rode they loved. They especially loved the water park.

Zoo

The kids favorite part of the zoo was the giraffes. There was one giraffe that was trying so hard to get leaves from the trees. Then the kids got to feed the giraffes lettuce. Lahna talked about the giraffes and getting to feed it lettuce for weeks after. 

Spring/Summer videos

Here are a few videos from the spring and summer...

It was a pretty eventful summer for Lahna. She learned to swim! Which is awesome since we spent 99% of our time around the pool or at the beach.

Table Rock Lake

This year Bryce's family left the day my family arrived at Table Rock Lake. We decided to stay and camp with my family. It was a long time to be away from home but it was fun to stay and vacation with my family too. The weather was perfect for camping. It wasn't too hot and we only got one day of rain. We spent the nights sitting by the fire and we spent the days out in the sun swimming in the lake.

Lahna and Jackon eating grapes.

Goofy face.

Look at that face.

The kids found a turtle

One of Lahna's favorite things to do was dive for rocks and look at the fish.

Feeding the geese

Eden and Bowen

Tubing with the kids

And of course after bombarding you with tons of pictures here are some videos too!

Swinging by herself. Brave girl!
