"maybe this wasn't such a good idea"

4 months old

Took Andrew for his 4 month check up. He's a growing boy at 15 lbs and 26 in. He's 50% for his weight and 75% for his height. I wonder if he's going to be tall like his Uncle Brad and Papa Don?
She was impressed at how alert he was and following her every move. I mean I always thought he was smart but i'm a lil biased ;)

Big Stuff Andrew

Watch me do the log roll.

have a SixFlags day

We went with some friends and took Ava to Six Flags for the first time. She had so much fun. Our friends have a daughter the same age so they had a lot of fun together.

Because I don't have enough pictures of her on a merry go round

Not sure if they listened to their flying instructions because if you notice they're the only plane that is not in the air. lol.

Trying so hard to get it in the air.

On the Big Ferris wheel..thought she'd be scared but she loved it.



Of Course we have to pose with characters






Driving the moon cars...flash forward 13 years this is a scary thought.

Going Country

This past weekend we headed out to our friend's family farm. Ava loved seeing the cows and horses. We even went on a hay ride. Ava was sure to point out all the cow poop on the ride too.


Ava and Greg trying out the four wheeler.

She's officially country now with the straw in the mouth.

Andrew's first hay ride, all snuggled up in my sling
