Facial Expressions!

Callie has just started smiling this week! She doesn't smile often but we know that is to come - right now we now have smiles that are no longer caused by gas :-) The smiles always seem to come at the perfect times too - Callie and I wake up about the same time Preston leaves work and this morning, he gave her a kiss as she was waking up and she broke out in a huge smile. Great way to start the day!

I have tried to get a shot of a smile but this is all I could get (a bit of a cocky half smile)

She also has this super, adorable frown that comes right before she is about to cry - I know she probably doesn't appreciate me smiling at that facial expression, but I truly can't help it. I haven't taken a picture of it, I figured that would probably be wrong (who takes picture of a crying baby!)

Another Plane Ride

So, Callie and I spent my spring break in Pennsylvania. It was a wonderful trip and Callie just LOVED being spoiled by all her aunts and uncles, cousins, and grandmas! (she was a bit in shock when we came back home and she was stuck with just mom and dad - she also took a two hour nap the day we got back, which she has never, never (and probably never will again) done, traveling sure is exhausting!). I was a bit nervous about the very long plane ride, but besides not eating at all, Callie did fabulous! Although, she never really did understand why she couldn't grab the people sitting next to us or in front of us. Even though she got sick on the way back, she was still a wonderful traveler. She loved sitting with Grandma and looking out the plane window (yuck!). We met Grandma in Chicago - at that point in time both Grandma and Callie needed a snuggle, so they spent part of our layover cuddling up in the airport. (sorry, I took these with my cell phone) Looking out the ...

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.
