Labor Day Weekend

We had a nice relaxing Labor Day weekend. Lots of family time. On Friday and Saturday we had a yard sale at my house which I think I am going to pass on doing next year - lot of work and it was mainly my sister's stuff so it is not like I cleaned out my house. Anyway, Sunday Kyrah, Grandma, Tina, Connie, Nick, Lydia, Jimmy and I went to a local picnic. It was very hot, but Kyrah liked watching the tractors and liked people watching. Here she is playing in her stroller and sitting with Grandma.

On Monday we went to the cabin to watch Grandpa work on building his new pond. It was a little cooler that day. The cabin is okay. It is about an hour away from our house in Perryville, MO. There is not a lot to do there, but the kids like it because they get to play in the pond (Grandpa built them a little beach area) and unless you like fishing you just pretty much sit around and talk or play a board game. This is what the older kids do all day at the cabin.

Here is Grandpa taking a break from the new pond giving Kyrah her bottle.

Daddy even let Kyrah drive the truck for a bit when we were going from the cabin to the new pond across the field. She liked this part.

She is not crawling yet in the traditional crawl, although she has her own way to get from A to B. She does this odd hands down, one foot on the ground with her knee up and one knee on the ground sort of crawl. It is not fast, but she eventually gets to the toy she wants.

Yesterday I got to see our friend Michelle with her baby Ben who is 2 weeks older then Kyrah and Christie and Lillie. We all went to lunch, too bad Kyrah couldn't come, but maybe over Christmas when Ben and Michelle visit again. He is bigger then Kyrah - longer at least and weighs just a bit more. He is a cutie and doing all sorts of fun things. Lillie is growing as well. She is almost 4 weeks old and she looked so cute in her little girly outfit.
