Upper Hay Lake, Nisswa

We were really looking forward to our trip to Upper Hay Lake! It would mark the first time that the 4 of us did a special family vacation with just the 4 of us. We planned to relax, hike, fish, swim and just spend time together. It was a great trip, unfortunately Graham was sick the entire trip. He managed to gain enough strength to head outside a few different times. He lasted for short periods of time fishing, dipping his toes in the water and going for a short walk. Poor little guy had such a high fever. Paige was a trooper and really sweet to Graham. She had a couple special dates with Mom and Dad because one of us would always have to stay back with Graham. We are so looking forward to doing this again every summer...such great memories and family time! 

Graham

Just because he's so cute! He's a busy and sweet little boy, he loves being in his big boy bed and is working hard on potty training. Here are a few pics of this little cutie. He's OBSESSED with wearing sunglasses, he has the most sensitive eyes ever! He is full of energy and full of love! 

I even got some extra special snuggles a few weeks back when he was sick...he fell asleep in my lap. 

Teeth

Progression of lost teeth! At the age of 5 she has already lost 5 teeth, this girl is growing up way to quick! She's not a fan of loosing teeth, the first one was accidentally knocked out by her brother, the second one was pulled out by Paige. The third one was really loose for 3 months, the 4th one fell out in Paige's mouth at 5am and the last one was hanging by a thread (honestly, see the picture below) and fell out at the Chocolate Ox in Nisswa. 

Love her toothless smile!
