Holy Cow it has been a while since I have been on this site. August is almost eight months old!

Summer has arrived and brought us our first wedding season at the cake shop. The good news is we are super busy, the downside is there is not a lot of free time to be had.

In May we were surprised by a visit from August's great grandparents. They made the DRIVE from Virginia to Boulder just to visit August for a few hours before heading back east!

We sent them on their way with plenty of treats for the drive.

We have also celebrated my first Mother's Day and Jake's first Father's Day

Mother's Day at the Kitchen

August is now sleeping in his own bed in his room with out his swaddle! He also continues to sleep through the night which is amazing. He is napping in his crib, I am still waiting for the day that he takes 2 good long naps a day... He has also been doing a great job of putting himself to sleep for naps at the cake shop

He has been eating food for a month or so now. Nothing exciting, just baby food. I was determined to make him all his baby food, but reality set in and it is just to easy to buy organic baby food from the store. So far carrots and apples are the favorites. Jake can't wait till August can eat what we are eating, I am not in any rush for him to grow up faster than he already is!

Swim class with dad. He loves the water and even went down the big water slide with mom.

Napping with Dad. This was the first time he put himself to sleep for a nap (August not Jake!)
