Playing Catch Up...8 Months and 2,000+ Pictures (Part 2)

August:
Seriously, how cute is this kid?!

Slobberific!

She knows how to stop the "papa"razzi. :)

Bath time is the best time. Cab LOVES her bath...and splashing mommy and daddy. I have no idea who gave us this adorable little lounge lizard robe...but it's really cute. :) Thanks, if you know who you are!

We saw a bumper crop of blueberries in the area, so we went out to see what we could get. We only ended up getting about a pound in 2 hours. That's what happens when you go with a 6-month-old and a pregnant lady. :) It was still fun and nice to get outside.

Cab slept for about 40 minutes of our picking experience, I think she was a little confused when she finally woke up. But she was good-natured, as always.

We spotted this guy hanging out on one of the bushes. He was about as big as my hand (his wingspan anyway).

We went on our first road/camping trip! We upgraded our tent from a fairly roomy 2-man to a huge, 2-room, 6-man tent. It was perfect...as you can see in the next picture.

Gone are the days of light packing...okay we were never really light packers, but it was never like this! You can see our (nearly) queen sized air mat, Cab's pack & play, the baby gym and a bed for Mel. Yep, we roughed it.

We also borrowed a 2-burner propane stove for the occasion. So long Whisper Light! That was luxury compared to the tiny little burner we usually have to use. Thanks, Rod!

Cab did very well on the trip. We were a bit concerned with the heat during the day and the cold of the night. But she did better than either of us anticipated. :)

And we got to visit some great friends who we don't see nearly enough! Thanks for the Cunningham hospitality!
