We wanted to get a video of Luke crawling because it is so unique. Even with his little leg tucked up under him, he can still scoot pretty quickly. The technique throws him off-balance every so often, so we've had to deal with a couple of face plants. Even so, he keeps up with his older brother quite well. So I got out the camera earlier this evening and captured this:
It's a good thing I did because just four minutes later:
Such a big boy!

A canoe ride with Uncle Derek out to see Daddy on the windsurfer.
My tire planter is still growing. These petunias have done quite well alongside the pool house. 
Dave and I did the Sanford and Sun Triathlon a week ago. Well, I should say that Dave did the triathlon and I survived the triathlon. It wasn't pretty, but--as Dave pointed out--I like being able to say I got it done shortly after having two kids. Here Eli shows off my swim cap and finisher's medal.
Dave gives 'Ol Red a bath. She's almost at 100,000 miles, but not quite. (I think she wants to hold onto that last bit of youth as long as she can.) 
Dave brought a bushel of corn home a couple of days ago. We had a family shucking party in the backyard and now we've got plenty of yummy sweet corn in the freezer for this winter. 
Our pumpkin. We have a monster pumpkin vine in the back corner of the yard despite the powdery mildew diagnosed by our green-thumbed neighbor. The massive thing has produced one (one!) fruit. The butternut squash plants mentioned in an earlier post have yielded one measly little squash plant too. I guess we'll need to cultivate that soil a little more if we want to get more next year. In the meantime, we're watching our pumpkin and are hoping that it will keep growing until October, when fall really begins....and here are a few pictures. WARNING: I took a lot of photos, so this is just a smattering to give you a taste. Enjoy.
