We took a hike a few miles from the house. There were tons of butterflies and wild flowers. Bailey had fun picking all of the flowers and making a bouquet for her room. There was also a beaver house that we tried to get close to, but those darn beavers were too clever for us and we couldn't quite get to it.
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.

Swans at the Sun Valley club with 6 babiesWith 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.

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.
