Catching Up

Well, fallen a little behind once again so I guess it's time for a bit of a catch up post.  The last month has been a whirlwind, as they all seem to be with the social lives of Connor and Sara and I.

The first weekend of June we made a quick trek down to San Diego to celebrate with Nick and Jenn and the rest of the Gedestad clan.  In was nice to see friends and family, and Connor didn't even fall in the pool, so...success.

The second weekend of June was Father's Day.  We went down to Bart and Joni's house to watch the very boring US Open (I blame Martin Kaymer's ruthless German efficiency), eat delicious ribs, and generally be glutens.

The third weekend in June was Nick's bachelor party, so Colin headed up to Seattle and Sara performed Super Mom duty taking care of the kids.  Colin returned in one piece, and Sara and the kids had a pretty awesome weekend.

The fourth weekend of June we took the family to the beach on Saturday and celebrated Sara's birthday a little early on Sunday.  Connor loves the beach at this point and it's so fun to see how excited he gets by the waves, destroying sand castles, and throwing sea shells into the water.  On Sunday Bart, Joni and Lara came up with lunch and we enjoyed the early afternoon together.  Then Sara and I snuck out with a picnic and took a bike ride along the beach before finding a spot for some salami, cheese and beer out of Planes cups.  We really couldn't be any more stereotypical parents I don't think.

In the world of child milestones, Owen has started rolling over consistently, although I think he still forgets that he doesn't like to be on his stomach all that much.  He's also just started in on rice cereal and is definitely not sold on this semi-solid food concept yet.  I'm not actually sure if he's swallowed any so far.  Connor has recently begun potty training with moderate success and Sara and I are looking forward to the day when we only have one child in diapers.

And now, the reason that you're all here:
