Our new friends we made at Build a Bear

So much happened in June so far I decided I should update the blog toute suite!  The first week in June Amber and Eden visited from Iowa.  The week was full of fun activities! The zoo, the park, Build-a-Bear, haircuts, Monkey Bizness (a fun indoor place for the kids to play) and lots and lots of fun cousin time!

Sorry the pictures are out of sequence.  Enjoy!

3 Months!

Cathy, Go and Aidan.  Aidan doesn't look too sure about that baby.

I think Cooper is eyeing that egg thinking "hmmm, I could totally destroy that"

Lucy fell down on the way home from the park and scratched up her face, she didn't seem to mind though

Grandpa Marvin

Lucy was so proud of her snowman!

Grandma Marvin

The last 3 months have been a whirlwind!  We've had Grandma and Grandpa Marvin come visit (and Gma Marvin even came twice) and Grandma and Grandpa Ellsmore came in April.  Then the Missouri Reid clan visited in May and currently Aunt Amber and Cousin Eden are here visiting but I don't have pictures of that visit just yet.

Margot, as you all know, has had some trouble gaining weight.  At her appointment this past Wednesday she weighed 9 pounds, 11 ounces which is up from last month but she's still not on the chart yet (we call her zero for fun).  Her doctor is confident that another month of good eating will put her on the chart for her 4 month visit.  She is such a little doll, we just can't get enough of her!

Summer has started and Lucy and Margot and I are figuring out how to keep ourselves busy!  Poor little Margot spends more time than I'd like in her car seat/stroller but running Lucy around keeps us on the move.  Go is too little for me to wear her just yet but once that's a possibility she will no doubt spend lots of time strapped to my chest.  She can smile and coo and has laughed a few times. She's going to be a thumb sucker, just like her Mama was!

Lucy had her last (forever!) day at Kathy's and we've already met the girls' day care provider for next year.  Her name is Diana but everyone calls her Nana.  She was very sweet and the girls are going to LOVE her.  She'll have Margot 5 days a week when I go back to work and Lucy just on Mondays.  Lucy will go to preschool the other 4 days at Hopkins.  We toured Hopkins one day and Lucy was sooooooooo excited about her new school.

Meanwhile, we have lots of summer fun ahead of us!
