We started off the month celebrating Paige's 8th birthday
Here's the Birthday Girl showing off the handmade paper flower she made herself
(Madi is SO obsessed w/her cousin Paige!)
Then since the sun had decided to show up once again we made a few trips to the park to soak up some vitamin D and breathe in some fresh air!
Madi going for a ride w/ Daddy at the Riverfront park, she LOVES her pink car!
Madi was so excited it was nice enough out to go play on the SLIDE!
Getting some pointers from her buddy Avalee.
Happy little Halen hanging out while the girls play.
Madi also has had some recent encounters with her favorite neighborhood animals....
"Cow Kitty!"
Giving Tubby a pat on the back
Halen was a pretty busy guy and learned to ROLL OVER! He's also quite the ladies man these days....
Of course we had to post Halen's new accomplishment for all to see when they came to visit!
This is a typical day in the life of Halen... Madi & Isa fighting over who gets to play with him!
He has also found something new to play with.... his feet!
(This has made changing his diaper & getting him dressed a bit challenging! Combine the foot constantly in his mouth with the rolling over & it's like wrestling a bear!)
Next we helped Isabella celebrate her 4th birthday...
(How is it possible that she is 4 already!?)
Halen was pretty excited to get to try solids for the first time...ok maybe excited isn't the word for it... He wasn't too sure what to think of it at first...
Turns out, he really wasn't too impressed with it....
...at all...
(*update: He has improved his opinion on this solid food stuff... at first it was just weird to him...but w/ each meal he's become happier & happier to see that spoon coming towards him! He even *thinks* that he's ready to go ahead & just use the spoon himself! haha!)
Here our little rocker is with the super awesome blanket his Grandma Pat made him
Miss Madi-Annie was extremely proud of herself... she learned how to draw hearts! Here she is showing them off
Looking forward to a very busy, busy summer filled with more park playdates, visits from family , lots of sunshine & playing in the swimming pool! Not to mention lots of GROWING for Mr Halen
