The mystery man in the hat is Davey. He's antagonising his lil' coz. Not even a year old and he's already teasing the girls. 

Turn your back for a second and Jadey's off and running. Just like her mamma.  

Davey was still a bit too little for this park. No swings so he couldn't even ride in the swing. But he liked standing on the boat and pretending he was big. And he loves watching the other kids play. 

Jadey and Ashlie go horseback riding... 

Daddy come home

Daddy are you coming home soon??



Cause I miss you real bad...



I promise I'll take my naps like a good boy,



And when I'm up I'll be really quiet.



Unless you think maybe you'd like to take me to the park?



Cause I could be tough too if you'd like that.



Did I mention I really miss you daddy? Oh. And while you were in California, I got a tooth.

Notice how the girls smile pretty for the camera and Davey does a hard, tough stare straight into the camera lens. "I'm a boy. I don't "DO" pretty pictures."

 

 

 

oops. I may have been a bit too rough with this here flower... 

It's okay Ashlie, we'll pick you another flower 

If you can't tell yet, I really love the dandelions growing in Mum's yard. I love the contrast of the green and yellow. Makes for such nice summer pictures. Too bad I didn't quite get Ashie's runners out of the side of the picture... 

Davey in the highchair. Where is his second leg you ask (yes, he does have two legs...)? Well, Lil' Davey likes to rest it on the ledge that holds the tray up. And he likes to have his cell phone handy while he eats (that's the purple/gray/green thing on the tray). Warra cutie. 

 

 

Davey on his moped 

Another huggy moment with Ashlie 

 

This look of extreme concentration is a result of Davey watching Ashlie digging in the stones. I'm not sure if he's really impressed, or really disgusted :oP 

Make a wish flowers 

Davey's enjoying this moment with ashlie, really he is... 

You're supposed to go DOWN the slide Jadey, not UP it!!
