It was a good weekend up at the cabin.  Dustin and I actually got to go up early Friday morning kidless.  It was nice but a little strange.   The rest of the crew came up later that evening.

Saturday we put Peter to work.  But then he decided to be done and play instead.  We went on the boat and cruised out to the sand bar.  Both Peter and Zoey had a good time exploring.

It was bath time Sunday evening.  He was a little too splashy and got moved outdoors.  It was a good thing we did the bath early because the cabin got two visitors later that evening.  Donna, it’s not the bunnies eating the hostas.  Also, we sacrificed some of the lettuce in the fridge (it didn’t look so fresh anyway).  They liked that but not pancakes.

And now for the pictures to go along with this post since it wouldn’t let me put them in with the words…

Now, for the long overdue update.  I’ll let Annie go though the last month and a half and pick her favorites for her photodump.

We’ll start the tour at Easter.  Peter was pulling himself up at this point.

 

He gets first lick on the spatula while cooking.

Crawling is a bit too hard on his knees when the floor isn’t soft.  To combat this, he has taken to crab walking on hard floors.

 

He got a Walker Wagon to help with the walking.  It doens’t turn well, so he just rams into things.

Swinging at the cabin.

 

Mmm.  Brats on the pontoon.

Snuggling around the campfire.

Gratuitous sunset shot.

Riding on the front of the pontoon with his new hat and life jacket.

Kart and Kristen were able to make it up for a weekend this year.  Karthik impressed everyone with his mad pontoon piloting skills.

Yargh!

“The cabin is awesome!  There are toys everywhere!”

It’s tough living for tiny dogs.

“More toys!”

Loons.

Bonding time with Grandpa.  Note the new hat.

Zoey and Peter are keeping a lookout for lake monsters.

Although he isn’t walking yet, he has figured out how to walk on steps.

Helping dad with some plumbing.

Here Peter was a tired boy in his little car seat.  Soon there will be a picture of him in his new big boy seat.

And finally there is a nice picture of when the Smith portion of the family came to visit.  All the kids posed with Dee and Mel.
