We were finally were at a pool when Marcus was awake and somewhat happy so he had his first swimming experience. At first he didn't like it because his cousins were splashing but he soon was crawling around and enjoying the cool water.

Summer Fun
Well this is just a quick update as I've heard a couple complaints that there aren't enough pictures of Marcus. These ones today are ones with Marcus and Lucas, who is my friend Trish's little one who is 1 week older than Marc. Trish and Lucas were at our place saying goodbye as their family is off to Costa Rica for missions training then off to Cuba. I will miss having such a good friend for Marc (and me). The boys are so fun to watch even though they haven't mastered "playing" together yet. Anyways, hope you enjoy the pics.
Love Jenn

Wow
Wow, what a summer it's been. Ian and I celebrated our 6th anniversary at the beginning of July and the summer has flown by since then.
The next biggest news is that we are moving...sort of. For those of you who keep up with us on Facebook you may have already gathered that something was going on. Now that Ian is more permanent in the workforce we have decided to upgrade our current living conditions. As of a couple of hours ago we sold our trailer that we are currently living in. At the end of October our trailer will be moved off of our current lot and a new one will be moved on. It is larger and brand new so we are very excited about this. This has consumed most of the last 6 weeks for us as we have been ironing out details on so many different levels. We are very excited about this but there are still a few items that will be tricky, at least for now the hard part is done!
Marcus is growing up so fast, he is getting quite the personality and is lots of fun to be around (ha I write this after a day where Marc screamed for most of it!! Oh well). Marcus is learning to walk now. He has taken several steps in a row, and while it's still must safe and faster for him to crawl he is starting to willingly take steps toward things on his own. He is figuring out how the world around him works and has mastered the 2 front steps we have. This gives him many minutes of entertainment as now he can get to the piano. Marcus can say please in sign language and he can also say "Ah Da!" which translated means "all done!" We are working on a few others now but he seems to think everything he needs (food) can be summed up in these two phrases. It's hard to believe, but he is going to be one year old in three weeks. In my mind he should just be crawling and about 8 months old. Guess I better catch up with the times before he's 18 and I miss it all!
We have been blessed this summer and I hope that you have been too.
Love Ian, Jenn and Marc.
