"What? Grandpa, you're making that up!"

"No -- I really am going to eat you."

We love Grandpa!

Nate's getting bigger, but he's still very small.

Happy grandparents and grandkids!

Summer 2010 -- Ocean City!

At the beginning of August, we got to spend a wonderful week at Ocean City, Maryland, thanks to the kindness of a former colleague, Bonnie Hogrebe, and Grammy and Grandpop too (who also came with us).  As you'll see, it was a truly joyful time, for which we give great thanks to God.

It was sleepy after a long day in the car. So, I got some rare shoulder cuddle time that night.

Nate sure does love his big sister.

We found our old portable swing just before we left for the beach. So glad -- now we have pics of all three Erwin kids in it!

And here's my tongue.

Seanie loves his baby brother lots.

Though he rarely ventured out of the condo, Nate still managed to remain awfully adorable.

Mommy got lots of good Nate time while we were there.

Old man and the sea.

Oh Daddy! Stop with the camera, will ya?

Go go go!

Little boys + plaid shorts = awesome.

"Yes, yes, I know... I'm quite handsome."

There did need to be some down time -- here, we watched "Kung Fu Panda."

As she usually does, Abby played with Nate lots and lots. She's great with him.

Two cute happies.
