Pumpkin Patch

So it's been a decade and a half since I've posted to this blog. Hopefully I get back into it more as we get the hang of having three kids, but in the meantime, look me up on facebook if you want to see some more pictures!

This week, some of Tucker's family CA are visiting and we visited a pumpkin patch this morning. The weather was awesome and the lighting was so good that this shot looks like we are in a studio. I promise we are really at the pumpkin patch.

Family

A few weeks ago, we got to spend a Saturday morning with Katelynn's sister Makayla, her grandma Pam (Nana), and her grandpa Wes at the Everette Children's Museum. It's a pretty cool place and I think the girls had a good time together.

It was great to see you! And Katelynn loves her new lunch box.

Memorial Day Weekend

Grandma Sue and Grandpa Ben came to visit this weekend. In addition to keeping our three kids alive and fed, we went swimming twice, out to eat three times (no small feat with three kids), visited the Seattle Aquarium, and had a great holiday BBQ. Plus, Evan learned to roll form his back to front! Needless to say, it was an eventful weekend in our house. Some pics from our weekend...

JT decided to play with Aidan just after he'd had a bottle.
Woops and gross!
Aidan has been teething and having a very rough time getting to sleep. Finally grandpa had the magic touch.
Katelynn loved the aquarium, especially the jellyfish and "Nemos". She was not much of a fan of touching the starfish. Here she is posing for the camera.
Our friend Stefanie was able to join us for our BBQ and we finally got a family picture of all 8 of us. :)

29 and 5

Last weekend, Katelynn turned 29 months old (almost 2 1/2 years!). I totally forgot to take pictures until bedtime, so here she is in her pjs. This month, Katelynn is up to about 24.5 pounds. Her last 2-year-old molar broke through, so she now has all 20 of her baby teeth. I love listening to her talk in complete sentences. She also likes to sing songs and add her own words, especially when riding in the car. "Old McDonald had a ...(pause to think)... tractor. E I E I O. Old McDonald had a ... carseat. E I E I O." We played a game of memory this month with the pictures face up, and she did a great job matching them. Katelynn continues to love her pixar movies (Toy Story, Wall-E, Nemo), and is really enjoying getting out on walks and to the park in the nice weather.

Evan and Aidan: 5 Month
Evan and Aidan are 5 months old today. And I finally got a picture of them both smiling! Evan is about 16.5 pounds now. He has recently found his feet and loves to sway back and forth on the ground holding them. When he's in his bouncer without the seat belt on, he frequently rolls over to his tummy and nearly falls off the thing. His reflux meds were increased at his last appointment, and he seems to be fussing a little less with eating, but still will only eat 3-4 ounces at a time.

Aidan is up to about 20.5 pounds! He is such a big guy. He has finally discovered his toys and now loves to reach for and chew on anything he can find. Due to his size, I think it'll be a little bit before he's rolling over, but he still has his contagious laughter. They both have been enjoying walks. And they have started to show some interest in what we are eating so rice cereal will be making it's appearance shortly.

Katelynn was napping when we took photos today, so no group shot. But here are the boys enjoying some tummy time.

Big Boys!

It was a beautiful Seattle day, so we had our first walk with our big kid double stroller. They can't sit up on their own yet, but enjoy being strapped in upright so they can look around. And Katelynn brought her new Jessie doll along for the journey.
Must have been a good walk. :)
