Big Truck Day

Yesterday we went to Big Truck Day at the local parks district held. It was very fun getting into the big vehicles with Ember.


Ember in the business end of a highway painter. She was getting tired but this truck really got her into the event.


Inside one of the Beaverton SWAT vehicles that was there.


Hanging from a crane. Daddy just there for when she got tired, she was holding on there for quite a few seconds.


Daddy and Em inside the cab of a big rig. Us honking the air horn startled her a little.

Em and mamma going into the back of a refrigerated trailer on the lift gate.

Em inside a monster trucks wheel.

Playing with the controls of a fire truck.

Visiting again the SWAT trucks.

Sitting in the drivers seat of a TRImet bus.

We were not expecting this, so it was an added bonus. There was a life flight helecopter there. Got to see it take off and land up close.
Ember inside the Nurses seat in the helecopter. Playing with the seat straps. As if she did not get enough of the straps from her car seat.

Getting helped out of by the pilot.

More Tumbling

We are still going to tumbling every Monday evening. She sure enjoys it and is getting better and some of the activities. Mommy and daddy enjoy the running around with her as well.

Hanging out with a couple other girls from the class.

Running across the balance beam

Assisted by daddy with a summersault, she is getting pretty good at those (when she feels like doing them).

Dancing to some of the music playing

More dancing around

Some more hanging. She saw a boy that is a little older do a little flip on the bar. She actually asked for help putting her feet on the bar and hanging upside down. Mommy missed that the first time, so convinced her to do it again for mommy. Not quite to the fliping over yet.

Berry Picking

After a week with over 100 degree weather, it was nice to be in the 90's. We decided to go for some berry picking with the neighbors. There were all kinds of berrys there, but not all in season or some all picked out.

Here is Em bringing mommy some water from daddy who was a couple rows over picking.


Taking her cut of the water.


Hugging her friend Sean.
