Waltner Family Camping

-
I haven't had the time or energy lately to get this post done. So how about just some pictures? Our extended Waltner family had our annual camping trip at the end of June and a GREAT time was had by all. It's something that I personally look forward to all year long. I have a wonderful family. Thanks to all of them for all the work of planning and packing and scheduling to make this special time together a priority! Love you!












The first annual ladder ball/bean bag/bocce ball triathalon: We drew names to make guy/gal teams. Evan and I were the winners and Mindy and Jeff came in a close second. I need to make some sort of traveling trophy that we can pass along over the years!





Tickle, tickle, Denver!

Be nice to your uncle and you finish with a smile....

However, make a cocky remark to your father (Drew: "He can't tip me off") and there may be a sore ending! He bounced around on top of the water long enough for me to take 3 pictures of the wipe-out!Kiddy pool for the kiddos.....although we were able to pull the boat up next to our camping spot and leave it in the water all day, the beach was not nearby.  Thanks Aunt Mindy for thinking ahead!

Grandma babies!




Jacob: "Hey, pick on someone your own size!"
"Oh, wait, I AM!" Watch out Denver!

Denver crashed just before we all packed up to leave.

6 month check-up

Jacob's 6 month well baby check-up was yesterday, so here's the stats! Weight: 18 lbs. 11 oz - 72nd% Height: 27.5 in. - 85th% He's finally slowing down the weight gain. Jacob was consistently gaining 2-3 lbs. every month, but this last month he's stayed about the same. She even weighed him twice on 2 different scales to make sure since I said he was 19.2 when I weighed him at home at the beginning of the month. I weighed him when we got home from the appointment (me holding him minus me not holding him) and our scale scale said he's 19.6 with his clothes and diaper on. So that gives me hope that MY weight is actually slightly less too! Ha, Ha! As long as my bridesmaid dress has to be altered we might as well size it down a little more, right Paula? :) I guess I'm the cautious first time parent, because when I take Jacob to his check-ups the nurses ask questions like they assume I've already given him solid foods and such. I just thought I had to get t...

How many licks to the center of a tootsie pop?

Well, if you are the Owl or Jacob, its somewhere around 3. Jacob discovered his love of Tootsie Pops this Halloween. Somewhere toward the end of our candy walk through the Klaassen's neighborhood Jacob pulled one out of his bucket and got the wrapper off without us noticing. His eyes got wide and he repeated "Mmmmm," over again and again. Then he went into some kind of sugar coma - his eyes glossed over, he didn't speak or respond to us, and his legs turned to jello, we had to sit out a house or two while he finished (which didn't take long - I was amazed!) and then he immediately popped out of it and was back in action, smiling and saying "trick-or-treat" in his sweet little voice. Every time we let him choose a piece if candy for dessert he always goes for the suckers. all the kids - most of the girls were princesses this year, if they had specific names I'm not sure, forgive me friends.... Clara Slininger (princess), Tessa Leyboldt (princess ...
