Fun at the park!

CAUTION: Picture Overload Ahead

There are so many parks within a couple miles of our house.  They are all really great parks, with so many different toys and activities.  Our favorite has a large pond were the girls like to go and feed the ducks.  They have really enjoyed watching the ducklings grow and change this summer.  I take the kids at least once a week and very often we will go one the weekend with Mike as a whole family.  Izabella really looks forward to a picnic and fun time at the park.  Here are a few pictures of a couple of our wonderful adventures in play.
Izabella's favorite thing in the world is to climb, and climb, and climb...She's my little monkey!!

She also likes to hang on the bars at the top of the slides just before she goes down.
Abigail is not to sure of the slide yet.  She usually needs a little push to go down!!

Just a picture of my smiling "Big Girl"

There is this row of "swinging mushroom", according to Izabella, and getting across them is quite a feet for her.


Abigail loves to try her hand at it too, she just hasn't quite mastered it like her big sissy has.


And here she is climbing again.  She likes to practice her "rock climbing" on this fake mountain so she's ready when Matt and Jette take her.  Hope you guys are ready!!

My beautiful little girls!!

Even Miles gets to enjoy the park!!

Smiling for the camera!!

"Say Cheese" Abigail!!

We all love being out side and makes for a perfect Saturday afternoon to have a little picnic as a family and play at the park.

Love you all,

6 Months Old

I can't believe my little man is 6 months old!! He is growing up entirely to fast. 
He really is a joy to our little family.  I have never seem such a sweet smile!! Even though he can, he hates sitting up.  He would much rather crawl around on the floor.  Yes, I said crawl.  I'm not sure if I like have a mobile child at such a young age.  I'm afraid he's going to be walking before to long, he already will walk when he's holding someones hands. 
Here are a few of my favorite pictures of my little man

Sleepy little girl

 There are just some days when my little Abigail just wears herself out even before she finishes her lunch.  One minute she's wide awake eating her lunch like a gook little girl and the next minute she looks like this...


I have to admit that it's pretty darn cute!!

Love ya,

Lagoon

WE were so very lucky to be invited by the Surbaugh's to go to Lagoon as a family.  After a lot of thought, Mike and I decided that it would be better if we left the younger two kids home.  It would be hot, and they were both way to small to ride the rides.  So Izabella got some alone time with Mommy and Daddy.

This was Izabella just after we got to Lagoon.  She rode one of the small roller coasters just after we got to the park and didn't like it at all.  It took us about an hour to talk her into riding another ride.  Even then she wasn't a big fan.  Mommy and Izzy took the train ride around the park to look at some of the animals and she fell in love.  
After lunch we went on the wet rides and she was so happy.  It wasn't until after we came back from picking up the younger two for our evening as a family that Izabella really got excited about the rides.  So excited in fact that she road every ride in the kid part or the park, twice!!
Izzy couldn't wait to ride the boats and really wanted the purple boat.  Mike and I told her she would have to take what they gave her.  That made her very unhappy until she was given the purple boat to ride in  :)!!
Even though I wasn't really sure about the big faris wheel (I'm a little afraid of hights) Izabella loved it.  She loved being able to see everything

Abigail was so excited to come spend the evening with our family.  She loved the dip and dots we ate just after we got back and she loved all the rides.  Next year will be so much fun when the girls can ride together.  Greatfully Abi was very happy just watching Bella and having daddy's full attention!!

Izzy driving a car...What a scary thought!!
Having sooooo much fun!!

Thank you Grandma Char and Nicole!  We had such a wonderful day and it was so good to see you all.  Erin, Chris and the boys, we were so glad to see you and and glad you could meet Miles.  We really can't wait to make this a yearly family trip!!

Love you all,

Sugar Cookies

For family home evening last night Mike wanted to Make sugar cookies.  So I went to work and made some cookie dough.  Then after dinner we let the girls roll our the dough, cut out shapes, and decorate them.  Talk about a huge mess; it was even more fun though.
 This is Miles enjoying the evening from his little high chair.  He talked and drooled the entire time.
 Abigail made her own cookie by making a ball and squashing it into a sort of circle.  Then she picked this pretty yellow frosting to decorate it.
 Izabella decorating her pink butterfly!!
 The family decorating cookies!!
 So hard at work!! Thanks Aunt Jessica for the cute aprons...We love them!!
 Enjoying her cookies...or rather the frosting off her cookies!!
 Izzy loves doing things like this.  I think she really enjoyed herself.
A picture says more than words...I think Abigail really enjoyed herself!!

It was such a fun night and I think the girls learned a lot of good skills.  I love being able to spend a relaxing evening with my family, laughing and enjoying each other completely.  However, if you ever get sugar cookies from the Plane family, you may want to check each one for little tongue marks.  I can only see so much!!

Love you all,
