We had a low-key 4th of July. Poor Scout had a rough weekend with all of the fireworks in the area.

It was a busy day! We went to a playground in the morning and then went to our friends' house for a cookout! Greg clapped for the first time that day.
"Good morning!"
Looking out the "window"
"You don't say!"
"I can climb up this by myself!"
"Okay, maybe I need Dad's help."
Clapping for the first time!
Swing time

What do you think of eggs, Greg?

We went to Andrew's softball game.
A new favorite!

Watching Andrew at bat
"I don't quite understand this softball yet..."
Going over to the opponents' bench
Mid-game toss
"Hi Dad!"
Checking out the grass
"It's hot, Dad, let's go home!"

Greg has started to wave! It's so cute!

The canine vacuum - now available in white and tan!
Greg's new hobby - reorganizing the pantry

As I went to leave the house one day, I pushed the garage door opener and heard a terrible grinding noise. The door made it up part way then came crashing down. The problem became progressively worse and eventually the door would move. Andrew discovered the issue after a lot of investigation and tests. The carriage assembly teeth had worn down over the years and could no longer raise the door. We ordered a new part right away!
