August. . . and this is taking so long!

I should have just posted every month. Oh, well. Six months to go, and I'll be glad I did it down the road.

Dougie pulling in our dinner at the cabin in Island Park.

I got to take Sayla with me on a few errands when I was in Utah in August, and it was awesome. I want more time with my precious nieces and nephews.

We always have annual zoo passes, and I find things I love every time. This time, the red panda was apparently pooped. So cute!

My kids love to pose by the carved animals at the zoo.

I can hear Lucy now, "Mom, take a picture of me with this cat!"

Doug took a picture of this swan visiting him while he was fishing. Island Park really is so lovely.

This was Brooklyn's first time in swim lessons, clinging to her teacher. She loved it, but this was a funny beginning. Her teacher did a great job being patient as Brooklyn adjusted.

My friend Shea Thompson made this for me! I teach with her for BYU-I and I respect and love her. I am thinking of what I can send to her.

Cason's reaction to baby food at first--he has done really well with it, but he has made some funny faces. His eyes aren't as brilliantly blue anymore. Even Brooklyn's don't look like they are blue anymore.  I guess this wraps up the pictures we took in August!
