Zachary came to play with Shannon the other day. He behaved quite well but Shannon unfortunately had an attack of the "Mine!"s. Here she at least managed to pretend to play nicely but of course, the boat later took a wrong turn and poor Zachary got nailed in the head.

We recently removed the side rail of Shannon's crib to see how she would do in a regular bed. She actually is doing very well and doesn't even get out of bed in the morning - she still waits for us to come get her.

Shannon loves having freezing cold water poured on her head in the pool. She asks us to do this over and over again, gasps and sputters while it happens, and then asks for more. Try to do this in the tub with nice warm water so you can wash her hair though and she screams and screams.

Daddy and Shannon share a drink at Oxbow park, and Shannon and Grandpa play on a bench.

Shannon playing kickball with Galen. Shannon loved running around the yard and Galen loved that he got to run around and bark and didn't get told to be quiet.
