August Catchup

This month has been so busy, so here is an update of photos:)

Well, Dean got quite the present when Nanny and Pappy decided to get him his first truck at 19 months. As you can tell he enjoyed riding it. He rode for it for an hour straight. And actually his feet can't reach the pedal so we had to stack bricks on the gas so it would just drive and he could steer and we would walk along side him. He loves it... Thanks Nanny and Pappy!



While we were up visiting, Dean made Uncle Dray get his guitar out to play for him and teach him a few things, he was so fascinated.


Uncle Rigo had to get his hugs in too.

So Tony played softball with the church team last week and Dean and I went to cheer them on.  Dean loved it!  He played in the dirt with his buddy Evan and watched 'bayba', as he calls it, and his very own daddy was  playing. What more could you ask for?:)

A Grandma for each hand...awww.

Grandma Barb got Dean this Elmo chair and the Handy Manny so when he was sitting in his chair I laid my head on his lap. And anyone who knows Dean knows he LOVES my hair.  I mean it, he really loves my hair. So I sat there for about 20 minutes and he was just playing with my hair and relaxing.

Tony and I went out for our 5th Anniversary last weekend.  We went to our favorite restaurant and then stayed at the Westin downtown Cincinnati.  It was sooo nice.  Do we look excited?:)  It was really weird being away from Dean for the first time overnight but he was in good hands with Grandma Barb, Great Aunt Bonnie , Great Uncle Rick and Cousin Miriam.. thanks guys!!
This was the view from our room.  There was live entertainment so we went down and checked that out and had a cup of coffee.  How often do we get to do that?
Fountain square and our hotel was behind it to the right.
