Seaside Beach Stenger Family vacation

 The week after the 4th of July, the Stenger clan had a family vacation at Seaside, FL, to celebrate Steve and Deb's 60th birthdays this year. Everyone made it for at least a protion of the weekm and it was a blast! Brian and Whitney and Abby met Max for the first time, and Karmann, though she had met Abby when she was a baby, basically got to know her other cousin for the first time! It was a wonderful trip and, though we had to leave a few days early, it was well worth the drive! As you can see our beach was beautiful!

Does this house look somewhat familiar?? This house is along the beach on 30A - but we decided it was our house, but the beach version! I bet we spent a lot less building ours!!

 Back home we've been getting a lot of rain. Karmann likes to pretend she is Peppa Pig and jump in "muddy" puddles. She has soo much fun!

 We tend to spend a lot of time laying around in our PJ's and in be on the weekends. These were just a few silly photos from last weekend.

Check out that hair and profile! Such a handsome little guy!!

Max is about to turn 9 months old. He is on the go and up and crawing. He pretty much gets his eye caught on something and makes a bee-line to get it. He'll strech as far as he can, or roll over until he gets there, or flat out crawls! He's pracitcing trying to stand up in his crib - so we lowered it as far as it will go now! He is sooo close to having teeth, but nothing has cut through yet. And, he's still eating very well, though he pretty much refuses to eat from a bottle at school these days. I think the vacation time with mommy has spoiled him...
