Random spring fun

I'm realizing how bad I have been about keeping up with things. You'd think I'd have more time with Callie in school but time seems to slip away from me. We've had a busy couple of months...trying to make the most of the weather and enjoy spring even though it has yet to arrive.

Everyone needs a little fancy in their life.....Grandma took us to see Fancy Nancy at the Tacoma Musical Playhouse. I love Fancy Nancy and the show did not disappoint. Super fun time with the girls and grandma.

I love how our 3 girls have 3 very distinct and very different personalities and perspectives on what it means to be fancy!

We also hit up the spring fair when it was in town with Grandma and Grandpa. I actually seem to prefer the spring fair over the big fall fair. I love how small the spring fair is, so much less overwhelming for me. After we visited the animals and the rides we watched "slamfest". It is safe to say that I had no idea what I was getting into - a new experience, something that I did not expect, and something I still don't have words for. Needless to say, Liam loved it (and I am pretty sure Grandpa enjoyed it as much as him).

The show was very late - it didn't actually start until bedtime. Liam had no problem with it but I think Callie struggled to keep herself awake :)

Cars, cars, and more cars!

And here are just some random things from our goofy, busy life :)

We took our Girl Scout troop to a local fire station which was so fun! Liam tagged along and was able to enjoy the trucks thanks to having a sister in Girl Scouts.

I'm going to be missing this little dude when he starts preschool next year! Not sure who will make me laugh throughout the day. He is truly a goofball.

Callie tried out some local ice skating for a friend's birthday party. She loved it! I had trouble getting her off the ice.

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

10 Months

So, I am a bit behind. It is officially the end of the school year and I am feeling a bit overwhelmed with learning the new job and the close of the school year. Much different from the classroom. When I took Callie in for her nine month appointment her pediatrician checked her ears (which looked totally fine) then made the comment - I don't mean to jinx you but has Callie had an ear infection yet? To which my response was no (she had a super mild one that they gave us medicine for just because we were getting on a plane to Pitt) - in my mind, my response was "no, but we have had everything else imaginable"! The newest thing: last Friday when Callie got up for the day, her eyes were swollen shut. Turns out she had pink eye which was no fun. Many rough nights later she seems to finally be getting back to her happy go lucky self. Here are the newest things about Callie: She continues to get quicker walking with a push toy. Her teachers love watching her outside at da
