My brother David, his lovely wife Haschmo, and my nephew Zevi are in Toronto this weekend, and as you can see, Cameron was very excited to see them:

She even let me take a picture with her Uncle David (action shot):

Zevi wasted no time at all and quickly planted himself in the sandbox. He filled my watering can with sand. Super helpful:

Cam really liked playing with Zevi, as he's a lot nicer to her than Max is (her bro is going through a bit of a meany stage lately):

Max stuck to the sidelines, but definitely enjoyed the fact that everyone was outside:

I tried to talk the kids into helping me with my big summer gardening project, but nothing doing, so I had to repot these flower baskets all by myself!:

This would have been the perfect shot if only Cam would have looked at the camera...she seems to have discovered that not cooperating with my picture taking efforts is a lot of fun:

Max started scooting around the backyard on his butt (itchy I guess?) so I got him to play an oldy by goody, "duck duck goose". Worked like a charm and I got one of my best photos of the day as a result:

Max and I are flying solo tonight as Scott and Cam have headed over to Nana & Bumpa's for a night off from the crazy house. Tomorrow - more family - A LOT MORE family. Oy.
I love having friends like you over to our place because I never have to worry that our place is a little crazy. You know exactly what it's like! Cam looks like a little model. Adorable! Have fun with the awesome Max tonight!!
ReplyDeleteWow, I think this is one of the first photos I've seen of Cameron without her Binky in her mouth. She has a beautiful and dervis smile going on! Max - when he comes out of his lonely world, has the smile of an angel. Looks like a good family visit!
ReplyDeleteDoes Max like to stim off fence lines too?
