Random happenings of the Perkins household

We've had a break in all our travel, which I'll admit, has been nice. The past couple weekends we haven't had a whole lot on the calendar, so we've enjoyed hanging around town and getting things done around the house. The weather has been extremely hot & humid the past few days, so we haven't been outside much, but we did spend the day out at the cabin yesterday and went for a boat ride. Thankfully Will has gotten used to the life jacket (he LOATHED it the first time we put it on him up in Minnesota...see photo). The cutest thing, though, is that the motion of the boat (especially when going fast) makes him tired. The first time we took him on a ride in MN he literally fell asleep...so funny!













About this time last year we started attending a new church, and are so thankful for the friendships we've made there. A couple weekends ago we had a BBQ and pool party, and as you may have guessed, Will was quite happy to get in the pool. Here's another pic of him in his cool board shorts from Uncle Buzz (thanks, Uncle Buzz!).

















Will thinks that he & Hank are good buds...Hank isn't so sure about this. In fact, he (Hank, that is) has been showing his displeasure since Will's arrival by deciding to throw temper tantrums every now and then. Recently it's been more frequent, and let's just say that he's "mistaken" our rugs for grass more than I would like! Here's a photo of Will watching Hank romp around in our backyard :-)


















Last, but not least, Will is working on "walking" his way around furniture lately. He doesn't quite have the confidence to take those first steps on his own yet, but he's pretty proud of himself when he uses furniture as a crutch. Yet again, Hank looking oh-so excited.
