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!

Getting growy

Now that Liam has arrived, it's becoming more and more obvious how big and mature Callie is! I keep telling her that she needs to stop getting so big.....her response? "No, I want to get growy like you so I can open the blinds and drive all by myself!"......hmmm, not quite ready for that! But this weekend was a BIG weekend for Callie, Saturday I was feeding Liam and Callie was changing her babies when she ran off to the bathroom. After a couple minutes Preston ran to check on her and we found that she decided she was done with her pacifier and was throwing it into the trash (we had previously gotten rid of it until we found out she was afraid of the dark, and on our pediatrician's advice, gave it back to her after a month of no sleep). We went with it and Saturday she had her first pacifier free night......it was rough! Unfortunately Preston had to deal with the brunt of it, as I was up with Liam. Not much sleep in the graham house! We were motivated though.....Sunda...

Introducing.....Callie Lynn Graham

Our baby girl has finally come to join our family! Callie was born on August 10th at 6:34 pm., weighing in at 7 pounds 1 ounce and measuring 19.5 inches long. She is a absolute delight and Preston and I can't seem to get enough of her. Although the laboring went quickly, the delivery proved a bit trickier for me and we ended up needing to deliver by C-section. Callie was extremely healthy and was ready to leave the hospital even before I was! Due to a few complications, Preston, Callie, and I ended up staying at the hospital for 5 days. Luckily Preston has so much time off of work - don't know what we would have done if he needed to go back after a week. We can't seem to say enough positive things about the nursing staff at St. Joseph's hospital. They were amazing! Although it was not fun staying at the hospital that long (especially since we only packed our bag for one night) we got a lot of extra help with nursing and overall care of Callie. Both Preston and Call...

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.
