Of course Summer and AJ are into sports as well. Previously you saw Summer doing the high jump into the washing machine. Below you see Summer complicating Mom's life.

The 14 month old is now hobbling (controlled walking) and getting in the most unlikely of places. Who knows what she was looking for inside the washer.
Usually she can't make it in, but I'm guessing that she just ate a big meal so her center of gravity was, uh, above the waist. All she had to do was start leaning and then...
A few more pictures of Upper North Falls and North Falls.
So Ezra, Natalie, and Brendan all took off on Thursday for a camping trip at Silver Falls near Salem, Oregon. The weather was hot, the place was packed, and they picked the perfect spot to go explore.The pic above is just as we started the short hike down to the first two falls. an you see the trail right behind the water fall? Back in the 1930's the original owner of the land used to charge people $.10 to watch him push old cars off the falls into the pool/rocks below. Times have changed a bit.
Natalie catching up on the Star Wars action...
Brendan chillin...
Dad nappin...and Brendan Karate Choppin?
Two pioneer girls, one pumpkin, and one Boba Fett with a laser gun (that makes an awful noise). The funniest event of the evening was seeing this 8 year old pioneer girl run around with a laser gun...
Lisa made the pioneer costumes, don't they look great!And AJ had a great time.
Amanda still seems like such a baby to us, but the difference in size amazes us.
Grandma came to visit and was able to hold the baby and help out on a million other things.
Thanks Grandma!
Lisa and I finally got together for some time without the kids, but we were happily interrupted at 4:09 when Summer decided to visit.
The facts...
-She checked in at 9 lbs. 5 ounces. The largest of our four.
-She is 21 inches long which is the same length as Brendan, but his feet were much bigger.
-She sleeps a lot. Natalie, Brendan, and AJ were a bit noisy (or rather, they kept us up all night).
-Lisa is doing very well and will come home Monday morning. She was a true champ.
-Ezra barely made it.
Check back later for a few pictures.
