Jake & Laurens Band

We watched Jake (Laurens Cousin) for a while last night and we got quite a bit of video footage of them. Lauren is still working on her dance moves and hope to move up to backup singer soon. Look for them playing soon somewhere near you!

Tillicum Village

So during our week off in early august we took a day trip up to seattle. We decided to spend the day roaming seattle and visited the aquarium and our favorite burger place dicks! We also strolled the waterfront, went on the carousel and went to Tillicum Village for dinner, it was a long but fun filled day!

Here Lauren is enjoying her first Dicks hamburger, I think she liked the fries even better, shes not really a burger girl yet.

@ The Seattle Aquarium
SO big! Kind of........

She loved putting her head through here, she would have done it all day if we would have let her.

Kissing a seal at the aquarium, probably not the most sanitary thing, oh well.... shes kissed and eaten way worse!

At Tillicum Village after dinner she ran around the island, as you can see by her dirtly litte booty she also went adventuring off the trail, but shes still running (training).

The one family picture that turned out ok, after all the running Lauren didnt want to stop so it was tough to get her to sit still for a picture which is pretty much always the case.

Before getting back on the boat back to seattle, and we also found out on this trip that Lauren LOVEs Clams just like her mommy, she definetly gets that from the Martin side!

Lauren has been found again!

Montana 2009

So we FINALLY were able to get some vacation time and get over to Montana, like we used to do all the time. We found a rental house in Superior, MT, which is right on the Montana/Idaho border. It was a huge house right on the river and we were lucky enough to have the rodeo and Mineral County fair going on that same weekend. We didnt get a ton of pictures because Lauren was fussy the whole weekend and I kept leaving the camera at home, but here are a few we did get.

Here we are on the first day playing in the river,
the river was huge and slow enough to float around and play in "safely".

Lauren & Jamie in the boat, Joe and Jane up stream

I think this is the only family picture we got the whole trip, and I dont think Lauren can move.

Joe in the kayak, across the river you can see where a family of beavers were living.

Lauren getting the oars ready to go look for the beaver family

And the last day (the next time we got good pictures) there weren't many since lauren was being a pill, here are a few of the good ones. I think she was upset because she knew she had a 7 hour car ride ahead of her, I guess I dont blame her.

*Lauren, Pat & Laurie

Lauren & Pat (even though shes not smiling this is probably the best picture she took, so much for her modeling career)

Grandpa Jim, Lauren (whos had enough) Pat & Laurie

Of course we didnt get a picture with all of us in it, well have to try again next time.

Jane, Joe & I got left out of the pictures but I swear we were there.

One Leg at a time, kind of...

Everyday Lauren is learning new words and new things. Now thats shes 18 months old she is finally sleeping better and has learned all about time out and what the word no means. She can still get really fussy around people and is going through a pouting phase but we still love her and shes getting better everyday. While we were on vacation in Montana she tried to put her own pants on (as you'll see in the video below) this went on for quite a while but shes still practicing and hopefully well get it figured out soon!
