Polaroid Moments

Every now and then I can convince Wes to hold his sister. I cherish these moments (even though they last only mere seconds). I love my babies.

The Zjhoo

We finally took the munchkins to their first zoo down in South Bend. Or as Wes pronounces it, "Zjhoo" (like Au Jus). It is the cutest darn thing ever to make him say zoo. The very first exhibit was the tiger. He LOVED the tiger. After the tiger he caught on that there were more animals to see, so he didn't spend much time with each. He was always running on to see the next big thing. He slept really well that night. I think we'll have to go to the zoo more often. :)

It's Cereal Time!

We started Addie on cereal! She's starting to get the hang of it. Wesley likes to help feed her. He gets her to laugh and open her mouth by saying, "bah, bah, bah, bah." Of course by looking at the top picture it appears Addie is quite confused by their funny expressions. I don't blame her. Those two look a little nuts. The things you do to get a baby to open her mouth... :)

Addie's First Pedi

I know, I know... It's completely crazy, but I just couldn't help myself. I must say though that her toes are even more darling painted than what I had envisioned. Bring out the flip flops!

Easter 2011

Wesley colored Easter eggs for the first time this year. My first thought was to have Wes use his washable finger paints on the eggs until I came across these "no spill" egg coloring kits at the store. They worked pretty well, but Wes and I still ended up with stained fingers... At least we kept the dye off of the table and off of our clothes. That was my main goal. :)

Here's Addie in her very first Easter dress.

Wes also took part in an Easter egg hunt this year. After finding each egg he would open it up and promptly eat the candy out of it. I think it is fair to say that he had more candy at Easter than what he did at Halloween.


Here is cuteness in a basket. A teething cutie that is!

Here is more cuteness in a basket. After seeing his sister in the basket with the bunny ears on he was determined to do the same.

Future Entomologist?

Every year at this time we get little tiny black ants and random lady bugs that make their way inside the house. This year Wes is way too into these little guys. He calls every single one a "bug" and likes to pick them up and say "outside." His mommy taught him to nicely take the "bugs" and place them outside where she thinks they should stay. :)

Addie's 5 Months

Baby girl is five months old already. She's rolling back and forth from her belly to her back. She's finally got some hair on the top of her head and she chews on everything in sight. Where oh where are those teeth?

Coffee Party

We like to mix things up a bit at our house. We don't do the traditional tea party, we do coffee parties. Wesley's coffee maker makes up a killer cup of joe. Who would like an invite to the next party?
