Trip to the tulip fields April 2009

Bridget, Lydia, Heather, Keegan, Addy, Maya, and I went to Roozengaarde (spelling may be wrong) to look at the tulips and get some pictures of the kids. Maya only made it in a couple and it seemed really difficult to get an almost three year old, almost two year old, and almost one year old to pose for a picture...why do we even try:)! Of course some of the best pictures we got were the ones we didn't try too hard to get...Addy was even invited by a tourist to be in a picture with him, it was a little strange but actually quite funny and she accepted.

NEW BIKES!!!

Jack and Peggy got both Lydia and Addy new bikes and when they watched them on Monday the girls spent their awake time learning how to use them. Addy ended up having to take her new bike home so we promised to bring it back to Jack's whenever she visits!

Lydia had so much fun playing on the slide!

Kinda of a goofball!!!

Lydia ended up really liking her new bike but while we were outside she mostly wanted to slide or play in the dirt.

Learning the pedals...

Addy riding her new bike...she did great only fell off once.

Addy helping Jack put together Lydia's Bike!

I am sure that Addy was reading the directions to Jack

Maya is almost 2 months old!!!

It's hard to believe but Maya is already almost two months old! Some of her most recent milestone...staying awake longer during the daytime, she is starting to smile at us when we talk to her, and she is sleeping through the night from about 9 to about 5 or 6. We go in and see the doctor next month and I will try to post her measurements then...

Enjoy some of her most recent pics!!!

April 2009

Addy has been very interested in learning about medical type stuff since she was very young. But when I caught her eating her breakfast and reading one of Joel's medic magazines I had to capture it on film... then later last week she got very interested in Joel and his co-worker Eric's discussion about interesting ways to use backpacking equipment for rescues (like ski poles for leg braces and hip belts for a back braces) so of course she joined in!!!...enjoy!

April 15th 2009 - Pictures with Great Grandparents

On Wednesday we went with Addy's and Maya's Great Grandparents to get pictures taken along with Keegan and Lydia. It was a lot of fun and we actually got lucky all the kids were in good moods and ready to smile!
