6 months

I just realized I never posted this pic..oops!!! 7 months is just a week away!

Heart warming :)

While I was holding Henry and singing "you are my sunshine" before a nap, Magdalene asked to hold him. So I let her with help from me. She started stepping side to side (rocking him) and he was laughing. I told her it was time to put him down and picked him up and she said "I like holding my brother" it was so cute and warmed my heart :) 

Both wearing some sleep sacks I had ordered and got in the mail...both are for Henry :)

Also, I painted Magdalene's toe nails for the first time. She did pretty good.

Henry's face cracks me up when he does this...he's sucking in his top lip and smiling.

He's wanting to go places now but not able to hold his weight so this is what happens...

Bluebell Factory Tour

We had a great time touring the Bluebell Factory today. We ate some yummy ice cream too! Magdalene had strawberry and I had mocha almond fudge!! We met with some of Travis' family and had a great time. We went to a park close by for some play time and a picnic lunch afterwards. I made the 45min trip all by myself since Travis had to work. Magdalene had fun in the car while we sung along to some good kid songs and Henry slept some on te way there and back. I'm so thankful that he does so well in the car, Magdalene hated the car at his age :(

Fishing

Our neighborhood had a kids fishing tournament and thanks to daddy's stink bait, fishig pole, and quick hand...Magdalene won the biggest fish in her age group :) she got a $10 iTunes giftcard. We were excited!!

Then we were off to a birthday party and Henry had a nice nap in their backyard hammock!

Gymnastics

Magdalene had her first day of gymnastics Tuesday. She will be gong for the next 12 weeks! She was so excited and it was fun to watch her. During prayers at nap time she added a prayer (which she rarely does) and said...."and pray for mnastics" it sounds kind of like that when she try's to say gymnastics. It's like a combo of mattress and matches :) I'm excited to see her learn and grow this summer especially on her listening skills!!

She's the one at the bar with the coach.

Also, had to add a picture of this little cutie :) we got this piano out for him the other day and he likes it a lot, just like Magdalene did.

Folding Diapers

I was doing things around the house and when I came back to the living room I noticed Magdalene stacking the diaper inserts. I guess she's been watching me stack the inserts so she knew what to do. She has been a great helper around the house. She'll even put her dishes away while I'm unloading the dish washer.

I also had a nice two hours to myself today while both kiddos were napping. I was able to be creative and make 4 birthday cards for some nieces that have summer birthdays :)

Baby Food

I made some apples for Henry to try and he liked them but he wasn't as excited about them as I thought he'd be. He wasn't begging for more like I remember Magdalene doing when she tried food for the first time. I'm sure he'll like it more when he gets used to it. We are just going to let him have apples once a day for a week or so and then try something else.
