Oma and Opa Visit

 
Here is Owen at 5 weeks old (we were slightly delayed in getting this posted)

Oma and Opa came to visit us for the Fourth of July weekend.  We had a nice time relaxing around the house most of the time as it was very hot outside.

Oma did not mind spending time indoors with Owen and Rachel.

Owen was happy to get to spend some more time playing.

Rachel enjoyed the books that she chose when we went to the library after a trip to the park.

Owen even got in some tummy time practice.  He still does not particularly like it, but will tolerate it for a few minutes at a time.

Owen hit a couple of big milestones over the weekend - he started smiling at us and cooing.  Here is he smiling at Oma.

Big boy at six weeks!

One of the most fun parts of the weekend was dancing with Rachel.  She has so much energy and loves to dance!

We also enjoyed some nice meals over the weekend.  Here we all are (minus Wes with Owen on the floor between me and Rachel) enjoying our steak dinner.

Opa loves to spend time with his newest grandbaby.

Rachel playing some music for us after church on Sunday.

Oma diligently bouncing Owen so that he would stay asleep.

Yummy peach for snack.

Rachel helped Wes cook dinner for us one night.

Owen spent even more time playing on the floor.

At the park, Rachel helped Oma take Owen for a walk.

Rachel was excited to be at the splash pad again.

The newest playground in our area was finished this weekend so we checked it out.  It was a lot of fun.  They had a rock wall so Rachel tried out her climbing skills.
