Back from Holiday - A couple of Hunter pictures

I got back from Calgary on Thursday. It was a very long drive in a Thunder storm! Pouring rain, lightning and blowing wind for about 400 kms! I think I put about 5000 kms on the car from start to finish of this two weeks from Vancouver to Sask. and back.

Hunter is doing great - growing and making lots of sounds - gooing and cooing! He was great on the drive from Calgary to Yorkton Sask. He slept most of the trip and woke every few hours to eat and get changed at what ever rest stop we found along the way.

Jessica, Hunter and I drove from Calgary to Yorkton on a Friday - 960 kms -- attended the family picnic on Saturday and drove back on Sunday! It was quite the trip for Hunter. My parents and my sisters and their families also came along on the trip and we had three cars all together in a little bit of a convoy - which can be interesting when planning stops and lunches and such. Thank goodness for cell phones.



Isn't he cute!! He is sure "talking" And loves to listen to you talk to him.

Here is a picture of him with the bunny. He is now as long as the bunny. He sure has grown - he now weighs 12 lbs 13 oz. He was 3 months on July 2nd.




I will post a few pictures of the trip on another post - I think a couple of pictures of Hunter were needed first!!

I had a very nice visit with Anna - a "non blogging lurker" LOL!! We spent the day together in the middle of Alberta and did some serious quilt shopping - so that will also be another post. I was so tired after all that driving I am just now starting to feel a bit brighter. And I then realized that I have to get busy on the hand quilting of my Mariners Compass to have it ready before we leave on our next holiday. It has been a busy summer -not enough time for blogging.

  2. I can't believe how big he is already! I bet it is so hard for you to leave him each time you need to come home. Grandchildren are just the very best! He looks like such a sweetie - happy and good natured. Thank goodness for digital cameras too - that allow us all to share such cute pictures!
