pLAyiNG in ThE rIVer

 


Our little Model.  I asked her to show me how she could balance on those two rocks.  She began to give me several poses.  These are just the ones I caught!  She's such a girly girl.  I love it!

My little DAVSTER's chubby feet.  This is exactly how my feet look when I'm pregnant!  Oh the things we do for these kids!                                    

I love this totally genuine smile!  She was showing me how she puts sand and water in the bottle.  Darling      

5 MONTHS!!!

Trying to capture one of Davyn's darling smiles, but apparently the camera makes her do this!

Still think she's so stinkin cute!  She's such a smiley baby! 

She's getting to the durable age, and Skye is loving it.

Skye will "wrestle" her on the bed, hold her and talk to her.

They both love kisses, so it works out great.

Dav still loves to stand on Robbie's hand, gets excited every time, and just has a huge smile.

She is rolling from back to front like a champ.  She would much rather be on her tummy than back,

so she doesn't roll to her back very often.  When you put her on her back, she will immediately roll to her tummy and push up so she can look around.

Loves to sit in her Bumbo chair.

Loving rice cereal, in fact, she practically attacks the spoon, throwing her entire body at it!

If she can't get to it fast enough, she lets out a squeal.

I'm not sure I am ready to start fruits and veggies, probably going to hold off.

I can't believe my baby is getting so big. 

I don't know if it is the rice cereal, or just that time, but she is finally sleeping through the night.

She eats at nine and sleeps till seven!  10 hours!  I'm feeling like a new woman.

Everyone who sees Davyn tells us how much she looks like Robbie.  I agree.

There are tons of pictures where she looks just like Skye, but they have different eyes.

She's getting super chunky thighs.  They are so squeezable. 

She's been grabbing at things for a few weeks now.

Now when everything she gets goes straight to her mouth.  It's fun to watch the excitement in her eyes

when she latches right on to things.  She's getting good!  She totally plays with the toys in her swing.

We're not sure what personality she is.  She's pretty mellow, which I love.  We're leaning towards Red or White because she's so even tempered.  Such a good baby.  We knew right away that Skye was Blue, so we'll just keep watching.

Love you Davster!

Lovin' the heat!

So happy it's finally summertime!

 We went to the splash park the other day.  Skye loves it because it has the little splash pad, and it also has a huge park area.  I seriously think she could play there all day!  She loves to run through the water for a few minutes and then go over to the park till she gets hot, then do it all over again.

 Davyn spent most of the time napping!  Ah the joys of babies.  She woke just in time to hang out for a minute, and head home to eat and have another nap!

Yikes!

 I put Davyn in her swing while I was working on the computer which is just on the other side of the wall.  A few minutes later I could hear her talking, but it sounded like she had a blanket over her mouth.  I knew I hadn't put one on her, so I went to see if maybe Skye had.  This is what I found...

 

I guess it's time to start strapping this sweetheart in her swing!  She is officially rolling over.  She would much rather be on her tummy than her back, also making diaper changing difficult!  Loving it though, she is getting mobile, which is fun and sad at the same time.  My baby isn't a newborn anymore.  

So excited for these!

We finally got a new washer and dryer!  Robbie thought it would be a good idea to sell nearly everything with our house, including two sets of washer and dryers!  We've had none for 2 months!  I have a whole new attitude about doing laundry.  So grateful for these fabulous machines! 

Hogle Zoo!

“I’m soooooo excited for the zoo!”

 You can’t see it very well, but there is the cutest baby elephant behind us!  This was probably my favorite part.

 This train ride was the most anticipated part of the day.  Skye loved it, and we even got to sit in front of the conductor!

Even Davyn Loved it!

Skye thought the Rhinoceros was scary!

 Every animal we would see, she would love it for 2 seconds, and then say, “let’s see another one.”  She couldn’t get enough.  We had such a fun day, and Skye can’t wait to go back.  She asked the very next day if we were going to the zoo again!

Easter Morning!

The Easter Bunny found the kids at Oma and Opa's house!

Going out back with Opa to find their baskets.  Ryan is a little excited!

Each of them had their own trail of easter eggs to follow.

Check out the goods!

Thanks Mr. Easter Bunny!

Easter Ducky Drop!

This year we took the kiddos to the Ducky Drop!  There were seriously tons of people there, and the kids were so excited they could hardly stand it!  They played for a little while, and then it was time for the drop.  They loaded tons of rubber duckies in the big bucket, and then dumped them out.  Each child got one ducky, and that ducky had a number on the bottom that was associated with a prize.  The prizes were pretty sweet, but the real fun was playing in the pool.  Ryan and Skye have so much fun together. 

Isn't he darling?!

Finally in LoVe!

It has really been a love/hate relationship up to this point!  She is finally starting to watch the mobile, and more than that, she loves to look at herself in the mirror that is up there!  She will stare up for a good half hour, then fall asleep!  Loving it!

Jealous!
