GREAT neighbors

haha - get it?  no, you probably don't.

ok, we have fantastic neighbors that we're going to really miss when they leave to go back to germany.  the greathouse family has been so much fun to have next door.  they love dominic and he loves them back.  

ah, pretty flower...

this is the lovely emma... 5 years old, her birthday is only 1 day different than dominic's!

cute katie in her pocahontas dress.  

the twins: this is about as good of a glimpse as you can catch of them - they're always on the move!

a meeting of great minds...

"hey, look at emma climb that tree!"

dominic even lets katie and emma pick him up sometimes.  =)

thanks for being our neighbors!  we'll miss you...

mud puddles!!!

we've had a lot of rain in the last 6 weeks... it seems like it rains every other day. i took dominic out with his gumboots to check out the puddles. turns out you don't have to teach a toddler to stomp in puddles - he does it automatically! now he always goes stomp stomp when he gets in water.

Happy Birthday Mathias!

sleepy swinger

dominic loves to swing... even when half asleep.  the sign he makes is "more."

dogwood festival

"i'm ready... why are we leaving before i get a snack, again?"


dominic ate a whole hotdog!


at first he wasn't too sure of it all, but he soon warmed up to the idea of getting into EVERYTHING, and after that i was unable to take any pictures because i was just running around trying to keep him from pulling stuff off tables at the booths selling stuff.

sicky

3 days of being sick + 3 days of teething =

dominic drinks chai

mmmm... dominic loved his first taste of chai! he drank it like a big boy from a cup.
then he took his banana bread and dipped it in the chai before eating. yum!
