Some fun playdates

We have been enjoying the sun and some local places to play. With Liam walking our outings are getting much easier and much more fun for everyone involved. Although he requires a lot of following, it is much nicer to be able to not worry about the ground he is crawling on and just let him go.

Liam got a new swing for Christmas and thanks to our spring like weather we have already been out to enjoy it. He loves to swing next to his sister and also get pushed by her.

He has a love for bubbles

We went to a local gym to play. Liam and Callie had so much fun!

Practicing some flips with dad

We also went to a local indoor gym to play. There is a balloon area that both of the kids loved! It is surrounded by fans and filled with balloons - so much fun!

We also got to enjoy a sunny day at the beach. We played on the playground, swung on the swings, made tons of sandcastles, and threw many, many rocks into the ocean.

Throwing rocks into the ocean

We went on a day that Maya didn't have school and it was so much fun having all three of them at the beach!

He looks super thrilled doesn't he?! Ha.

Kind of the perfect place to swing!

Rolling and Reading

Callie rolls ALL over the place!!! One of her favorite places to end up is her bookshelf. Look what I found! As a side note, it looks like one of our cats is finally accepting that Callie is part of the family (or atleast, she isn't going anywhere) and has become very tolerant of her. She lets Callie "pet" her and will even walk up to Callie (which, if you know this cat, is VERY unusual - there are some people who still have never seen her). The other day when I was getting Callie from her nap this was outside her door. Apparently the cat loves Callie enough to bring her toys.

7 Months

This month seemed to have flown by just as quickly as all the others. It's crazy to think she has been part of our family for seven months already. We have had our first real battle (and are still battling) with a never ending cold. She has been a trooper though - although I wish that we could do more to help her. Here's what is new (things have moved very quickly this month): She is up on all fours. She seems to be taking after her cousin Clara, where she can crawl backwards but not yet forwards - which can be very frustrating as the toy she is trying to get to seems to just keep getting farther and farther away. After she learned to get up on all fours, she very quickly learned to go from all fours to sitting. We have yet to find any real foods that she will turn down, although green beans appears to be her favorite so far. When feeding her green beans she will lean forward VERY far and open her mouth as wide as can be just to get the next bite. We can't seem to get

Mothers Day Weekend

We had amazing weather for Mother's Day weekend and tried to enjoy every minute of the summer. On Sunday, Callie and I ran the color run. A 5k through Seattle which involved a lot of dust and color. It was a lot of fun and I was super proud of her and how she pushed herself. Before the race. Shirts are still white and hair is still normal color. We ran with one of Callie's good friends and her mom. Bubbles! That was a highlight for Callie, she loved running through the bubbles. Done! Color and dust everywhere! We spent Saturday with Katy and Dennis and explored Renton and a local beach and park. Callie and Katy The gang! Saturday was so beautiful that we actually went home and the kids ran in the sprinklers and played in the bathing suits all day.
