He's a walkin'

Griffin starting walking the week of July 13th and hasn't looked back. It happened so fast. The weekend before, I took Griffin to the island to go camping with Carmen and the girls. Griffin and I walked hand in hand up and down the beach in search of crabs hanging out in the warm tidal pools. We had a great time. I think all the walking in the sand helped Griffin prepare to walk on his own :)

Now that Griffin is walking, he can get to places quicker and get into trouble quicker. His new favourite thing is to remove all reachable items out of the fridge, and sometimes taking a taste.

My sister came for a visit on her way to Hawaii. I did not waste any time putting her to work. With all the renos that are happening in our house there is no shortage of work. When Carmen came with the girls and their way back to Edmonton there were more hands on deck. Thanks a lot girls for all the hard work and for putting up with all of the mess!

I had to show this picture. It is a rare event when there is a thunderstorm in Vancouver and we had one this past weekend. It turned the sky a brilliant orange. This is a picture from our deck.
