Summer 2011 Maechen

Our 2nd set of girls, Barclay and Maechen

Barclay loves her toes, she's pretty limber

Lake and harper taking a ride out back on the dike.  I hope he's a good driver.  They look like an old couple cruizen.

Believe it or not, these 2 girls can be a bit catty at times.  We try hard not to laugh, brings me back a few years...

These 2 girls do not have much in common for looks.  This is Barclay and below is Maechen.  They are almost 5 months apart.  In a few years we won't see that.

Barclay enjoying her bottle with Papa, Myles thinks it looks pretty good too.

Bath time at Nana's is lots of fun!

Brandyn must be trying to get some cinnamon roll

Never never a dull moment!

Auntie Chelsea is pretty special!

Swimming at the pond

Christina and the boys hit a "perfect time" to visit. They go in on freezing corn, first time since they left.  I think everyone had a fun time.  We did it quite different this year.  We cleaned in the shop like always, then took it to our house, cooked it on the turkey fryer on front driveway, cooled it in wash tub on drive and then took it in the house and cut it off.  We had such good help we stopped with the Marlow help this year. 

Maechen Wren was born August 1, 2011She weighed 8 lbs. 12 oz. 21 1/2 " long.

Cadynce, Payton, Beckym and Christina all came for baby Maechen.

Cadynce and Payton stayed 10 days while mom and Beckym went back home.  We had a great time.  Hoping to do it again next summer.

They missed their dogs, you have to be a little careful with Myles.  Payton won him over quickly but Myles never did let him pick him up. 

You'd think Myles felt like he had to be in the pictures.  He just enjoys babies and feels like they need protection.

We can not figure who she looks like yet.  She definitely does not look like her siblings.
