1st Time in the Bumbo!

I let Henry try out his bumbo seat, since he's so strong. He did really well, especially since he's still pretty young for it. We'll keep working at it! 

Poor kid, his sister doesn't like him... haha

Please pretend like my living room doesn't look like a daycare... I'd say it doesn't always look that way, but you might not believe me.

Watching Tangled

Emma bought Tangled with a birthday giftcard the other day (yes we've already watched it at least 20 times since we brought it home!)  One morning, I propped Henry up next to Emma & he sat by her for probably 20 minutes just watching Tangled with her, happy as a clam. 

I love my sweet babies!

2 Months Old!

Henry turned 2 months old on June 30th. Here are a few of his 2 month pictures!

I love him to pieces & just think he's the cutest little boy! Plus, he's super sweet & cuddly! As I type, he is sleeping on my lap/arms.  And if I try to move him, forget about it. He likes to nap ON me.  He is also getting much happier to be awake, which I love. It's nice that he will sit in his bouncy seat, look around, coo, & smile in between naps & bottles. He's decided being awake isn't all bad! 

July 4th!

We drove home from our vacation the morning of July 4th, because David needed to head back to work on Tuesday.  We stopped at Moe's near Macon on our way home. 

Emma entertained me by balancing a chip clip on her nose....I'm not sure where she gets this stuff. 

When we got home, Emma promptly changed into her Cinderella dress. Sadly I never got a picture of both kids in their patriotic clothes together... be on the lookout for one later (hint, hint!)

We went to see fireworks in Porterdale!

We went to fireworks in Porterdale last year too, but we were at a church that was a little ways away watching.  This year, David wanted to be closer to the action, so we decided to brave the main area. We drove right over the bridge & right through all the people, & then drove on some other residential streets trying to find a good place to watch from. We ended up finding a park.....and it happened to be where they were shooting off the fireworks from!! Right by the entrance of the park was a church, so we sat in our car in the church parking lot to watch. We had an awesome view (ok, it was a little smokey).  There were quite a few other people who watched from where we were too, but we just hung out in the car & had a good time. Henry ate most of his night time bottle during the fireworks, half asleep, but then he woke up & watched & stopped eating. He was so cute just looking up at the fireworks!

Anyway, so once the fireworks were over it took us roughly 45 minutes to get home (30 stuck in VERY slow moving traffic). Ended up being a late night, especially after a long drive that morning, but the kids did great. I think the grown-ups were tired!!

Amelia Island - Day 3

On Sunday, we woke up early & snuggled a little while with the sweeties :) 

Then headed to the beach, where I got to snuggle with this sweet baby!

And his cute baby feet!

David & Emma took a walk (she's the girl with the pink swimsuit & he's with her)

Now she's tired

Daddy & Em

Mommy & Henry

We went back to the hotel & got cleaned up, then grabbed some lunch.  Emma took a nap in the car (yay!) Then we went to the Museum of Science and History in Jacksonville (called The MOSH).  

We saw a big whale

And some dinosaur bones

We enjoyed a show about explosions.  Then David did surgery & tried out a prothstetic arm.

They dug for dinosaur bones (this was Emma's favorite part). 

Henry chilled in the stroller (notice his super cute romper - David doesn't like it & thinks it is weird farmer over-alls). 

Emma went up in the tree house

Henry & I watched

She also liked playing in the water

We visited the fountain on our way back to the car. 

We finished up our night with a steak dinner (I think it was called Millhouse), and then packed up to head home :(

Updates

Valerie, you'll notice I updated my blog info & picture just for you!!! Hahahahahaha

Trip to Amelia Island - Day 2

We got up bright & early Saturday morning, got ready, & headed to the beach! First, Mommy & Emma built a sandcastle. 

Then Daddy & Emma built one of their own.

Henry had a pretty cool setup! 

The kiddos got tired, so we went back to the hotel to clean up, & grabbed some lunch.  Then we headed to the Children's Museum in Jacksonville for Emma to play.  In full disclosure, when we pulled up, the building was NOT what I pictured & I said we were going to find something else to do.  David said he'd go in & check it out, & then came back out to get us.  We ended up going in & Emma had a great time.  I guess you can't judge a book by it's cover, right?

Emma played in the train

Emergency Equipment

She loved the play boat! It was complete with life vests, sea animals, a slide, & even a treasure chest with "real" treasure!

Henry got hungry

Playing in the ball pit - this was probably her favorite part

Afterwards, we went & got ice cream!

We went back to the hotel for a little while to rest & feed Henry.  Then we went & got some pizza for dinner. 

Then we decided to visit the beach for a few pictures. 

This one makes me laugh - Miss Attitude, Henry is crying, & David is cracking up! 

This is how we probably look all the time, windblown & all! Two kids is serious business!
