Cousins and Water Slides

June was a fun and busy month for our family. Greg's little sister Natasha and her family were here for a visit. Stetson is a week older then Max...it is fun getting pictures of the two of them together. They have grown so much since the last pictures we took in December.

************************************************

This is a funny picture...Wesley did not want to be left out of the picture taking fun, so he plopped himself down right in front of me and the camera. Max is looking a bit confused and Stetson has tipped over. I gave up getting a good picture this time around.

This is one of my favorite pictures of the two boys.

They were so fun to watch together. Aware of each other but not really playing together yet. It was more of new toys (they usually always played with each others toys) and taking away each others toys. Also, Max was constantly trying to get Stetson's binky (now remember Max has never really wanted or used a binky)...the catch? Stetson's binky was attatched to a ribbon (he is not wearing it in this picture because I had already removed it) and Max would pull him over.

And not to leave Wesley out here is a really cute picture of him taken that same day. ---------------------------------------------------------
June was rounded out by a birthday celebration for Baylea. We spent the evening at Brittney's house (Greg's other little sister) playing on their Homemade (read Redneck) Waterslide. This slide has been a labor of love over the past couple years...dug into the hill behind the house, lined with carpet for cushion, plenty of plastic, a splash pool, and stairs again dug into the side of the hill, also lined with carpet.

Here is Greg preparing to go down the slide...Wesley wanting to go but not wanting to go at the sametime. While Greg was changing into his suit, I had pushed Wesley down the slide by himself...this did not go over so well. Ethan had to rescue him and help him the rest of the way down. But Wesley enjoyed himself in the end and went down a few times with Greg.

Here is one of Greg and Wesley together on the slightly dangerous turn one. Seriously...Phillip, Cortney, and many others almost flew over the side on this turn. But I think that is what makes it fun...the element of danger.

Cayson, Ethan, Greg, and Wesley in the splash pool. Cayson torn down the slide, with running starts...he has no fear and was a ton of fun to watch.

Here is Alyssa headed down the slide.

And here is one of Ethan headed on down...Cayson flew by too fast, I never did get one of him on the slide...just in the splash pool.

Baylea would go down but usually just walked down the stairs and hung out below watching everyone and having a good time. Happy Third Birthday Baylea!
