Williams First Hair Cut

William got his first hair cut this past week. The first picture of William is before his haircut. The second is directly after his haircut and the third is of William in the bath after his haircut getting all the lose hairs washed off.

Fredericks Family Reunion 2007

July was a great month. We got to visit with Dave and LeeAnn and then everyone from the Fredericks side was able to come out and spend a weekend together. We had a lot of fun going to the children's museum, the zoo, to Beaver Lake, and to swim at Lana's house. We kept very busy with activities. It was so much fun to see everyone and to see all the cousins see each other. They had so much fun playing with each other. All the nieces and nephews had changed so much from the last time that we saw them. It was great time!

The Fredericks' at Beaver Lake

One day we went to Beaver Lake where we played in the lake, ate lunch and dinner, rode around in the boat and visited with the Fredericks family. The boat seemed to make Kyle very tired. He fell asleep while being pulled by the boat. He also fell asleep almost every time we got in the boat.

Grandma and Grandpa Porter Come to Visit

The boys could hardly contain themselves they were so excited when we told them that Grandpa and Grandma Porter were coming to visit. Finally the day came. Dave lived up to his reputation and put on a great fireworks show for everyone. We kept very busy with swimming, a baseball game with fireworks, going to the zoo, shopping, more swimming, and of course playing the Wii. The week went incredibly fast and we wish that the visit could have been longer. We are grateful that they were able to make the trip and come to see us. We had to split custody of the Grandparents and share with Tim and Amanda. We ended up doing most things all together and really had a lot of fun watching all the little cousins interact and play with each other and Grandma and Grandpa.

Tim's Birthday Party

Happy Birthday Tim! Tim and Amanda invited us down to celebrate his birthday. As you can tell in one of the pictures, William really enjoyed the ice cream that Dad would sneak him. This was our final visit for the trip with Dave and LeeAnn. We look forward to seeing them again, hopefully soon!

Bear Bum

LeeAnn and I found these cute pajamas at Cabela's. She bought them for William. On the back it says "a little bear bum." That night we got him ready for bed and put him down. When Joe and I went to bed his "little bear bum" was in the air. We just had to take a picture.

Going to the Zoo

We had a wonderful visit with Dave and LeeAnn. We went to the zoo with Tim, Amanda and Blake, and Dave and LeeAnn. Blake, Brad, and Kyle are starting to be come quite the little group of cousins, wreaking havoc wherever they go. The three of them had a lot of fun running around and looking at the zoo animals. William was thrilled to see all the action as well he really enjoyed seeing the zoo animals. We really had a lot of fun on the 4th of July at the zoo.
