Summer Fun

It’s so sad that the summer is already coming to a close. Milo’s first summer at the cottage was great, but time flew by waaaaaay too fast. It felt as if we’d just gotten here and then all of the sudden we’re packing to visit my parents in Indiana. As sad as it may be, I should do a bit of a photo-history of our time in Muskoka (with commentary of course).

Let’s see…where to begin??? Oh I guess I should begin with Shannon. ShaCam, as she refers to herself, took a bit of vacation to come for her yearly stay with us. Here we were thinking she was coming to hang out with us or visit with the Los…but no…she really came for Camp DDR. I must say though, that in between sessions on the dance pads, she did try her hand at holding Milo:




Baby crying in Shannon’s arms? Would you expect anything different? Take two didn’t turn out much better.




Can anyone say BOREDBABY? In all seriousness, though, Shannon and Milo got on wonderfully (we just don't have pictorial evidence), and as usual, it was great having her up. Des, Andrew, and Kiwi also came for a visit, but unfortunately I didn’t get any pics of them. I’m hoping they got a pic or two and can forward them to me…we shall see.

Milo also added professional chewer to his list of baby skills. For example…Jolly Jumper:




Neener, neener, neener, it’s Little Jeero:




It didn’t matter; he was (and still is, to be honest) fairly indiscriminate as to what went in his mouth.

Anyway…here are a few more photos from Summer 2006:
