It was a big weekend here in Boise. ESPN's College Gameday was in town for the Oregon State vs. Boise State game. It was the first official tailgate of 2010. It is hard to tailgate and enjoy yourself when you have a 21 month old running around all over the place...I was tired!

Vann and Penny

Vann and Shannon...I think Vann has a crush on her!

Vann and Avery! She took really good care of him!

So sorry it has taken me so long to update the blog. You think I would have plenty of time since I am not working, but I have been doing a lot of volunteering at the hospital, which has kept me busy.

We took a quick trip to California to visit Jeff's family at the end of August and just got back from Portland where we got to visit my family. All in all, it has been a great and busy summer. Vann is growing so much and continues to bring so much joy to our lives. He makes us smile all day long!

I have had a great time being home with Vann. We have been getting outside a lot and he really likes to mow the lawn...he has a lawn mower for inside and a lawn mower for outside.

Here are some pictures we got of our little guy...he is 20.5 months old...can you believe it?

It was a long week at The Edwards' house...I got laid off on Monday, which was a total surprise. The good news is, I got to spend a lot of unexpected time with Vann. He always puts a smile on my face. We had a great week together and I look forward to just taking a break and enjoying life a little bit. I am so lucky to have Jeff and Vann in my life, they always seem to make things better!

Vann had to show off his new sunglasses that his Papa Ron and Grandma Kathy bought him a couple of weeks ago!

We had a great weekend. We took Vann for a bike ride in his little trailer and it was successful:) He turned 20 months old on Friday, we can't even believe it. He is really starting repeat and talk a lot more. Here is a video of some of the things he can say...

We have had a wonderful weekend. Vann was lucky enough to have his Grandma Kathy and Papa Ron come visit him all the way from California. He had a blast with them. We went to McCall, went to the Boise Beerfest (no, Vann did not have any beer) and we took Vann golfing for the first time!

Hmmm...which club should I use?

Did I really hit it that far?

I am ready to go...whose riding with me?

This is so much fun!

We had a nice relaxing weekend. Vann is amazing us still every day. He got to go visit Nurse Carol today at the NICU and she was just stunned watching him show her his belly button, nose, eyes, ears and mouth. He is such a smart little guy. His new words are...airplane, belly button, water.

After his nap we took him downtown to the fountain to let him splash around! This boy LOVES water:)
