Sun Valley, Idaho Part 4

These pictures were taken outside of Margaret and Charley's house.

Sun Valley, Idaho Part 3

We went to a fun little lake just outside of Ketchum. It was pretty hot, so the cold water felt great on our feet, although a bit too cold to swim in.

Sun Valley, Idaho Trip

Raif's First Airplane Ride
Bailey in the plane

Colby's parents invited us to their home in Sun Valley, Idaho. My mom joined us for the trip (my dad couldn't get time off). Raif got to have his first plane ride, and it was Bailey's first time with her own seat. We had tons of fun hiking, seeing horses, playing in the river, and we even saw a deer come within about 10 feet from the dining room window. Picutes to follow on a different post.

Raif did not like the cold water, so he chose a shady spot instead

Swans at the Sun Valley club with 6 babies

There was a beautiful little park in Ketchum that had these shooting water fountains. Bailey had tons of fun, but the water was a bit chilly for Raif. We also went to the Sun Valley club to see baby swans.

We've Got a Crawler

With your first child, you always want them to sit up, start crawling, walk, talk, etc. It kind of makes you feel like you're doing your job as a parent and they are hitting all of the milestones they are supposed to. With your second, I really wanted these "milestones" to be prolonged as possible. Not only because he is my baby and we are done having kids, but mostly because it is so much easier when they just stay put. However, he is so cute crawling around and so proud of himself. There is no stopping Raif now.

What's Wrong With This Picture?

Why is it when you need them to play in the pack-n-play, they don't want to? And, when they're too big for the pack-n-play all they want to do is play in there.

Laughter is Infectious

These are basically two of the same video. Raif was hysterical about playing peek-a-boo. I couldn't decide which one was better, so I posted them both. Hopefully his laughter puts a smile on your face.
