Cove Point Water Park

I know I have fallen off the band wagon of blogging. Facebook is the new toy in the house. It is just so hard for me to keep up with all of this blogging. Sometimes I think it is just so much work to sit and write. I know that it is important to "talk story" and share pictures. Everyone is so good about this blogging thing. Anyway now on to the good stuff.

One of our recent family outings was going to the water park down the street from our house. It really is just a spit, less than 2 miles away. It doesn't even cost a lot either. All of us had lots of fun. This was Orrin's first time playing in the water outside. It had been so hard to coordinate Ethan and I to have some family time together during the daylight hours. You all know we work opposite schedules. Below are some pictures of that super fun day.

Bath Time

Orrin's evening bath always is lots of fun.  Ethan decided to give Orrin a soap bubble hat.  Here are a few pics showing off.

Am pictures of Orrin

It was in the 60's this morning but it felt like the 30's with the wind.  Orrin had the opportunity to wear one of his jackets he got for his birthday.  As you can see he is modeling it for you.  He is also showing off his teeth and his bruise over his right eye which is not his first.  I have to realize that this is a boy and he is going to have many bruises in the coming years.  

Orrin is still learning how to walk.  He is not completely steady on his own with the walker yet.  But we are working on it.  He will walk with assistance around the pool table in the basement with his walker.  Orrin is getting there.

On a side note.  We just bought a new computer and are in the process of transferring photos, documents, etc.  So when we complete this arduous  process, hopefully I will be more diligent in getting things back on the Internet.  This new computer runs so much more quicker and so it doesn't take forever to download something.

Orrin says, "Cat"

Orrin's next word after accomplishing saying "Da-da and Momma" is the word, "cat." Who knew out of all words he would say, "cat." He really gets the "T" in there. You have to really listen for it but he says it really good at the begining of the movie clip. Also you can see that he is crawling so good now. I think that he is going to be walking very soon.

Trying out our new camcorder

We finally decided to purchase a camcorder before Orrin turned twenty. Ha ha. I say that because Ethan and I always take forever to decide on anything when we want to purchase a big ticket item. So it is funny to us. Anyways, the other night while I was at work, Ethan took a short film of Orrin sleeping. This camcorder has a "night vision" option on it. I know it's crazy but it really works as you will see. His little "pamper butt" is up in the air. The weird thing about it is that is how I used to sleep or watch TV when I was a kid. That's genetics for you. Enjoy. We will be posting more soon.
