Faces

We get some pretty awesome giggles now...Don't these faces just make you smile?

Ok, sometimes even funny guys have to be serious.

First Week Back

This week was mommy's first week back at work. Considering Daddy was gone to CA for work, things went pretty smooth! Lilly is beginning to show some signs of missing both mommy and daddy and is acting quite whiney...but we're working on that!
As you can see we were all exhausted by this weekend!

George is beginning to try to reach and grab for toys and gets really excited to see familiar toys now. He is extremely vocal and loves to mimic your tongue movements (especially sticking it out!)

His legs are going nonstop right now an dhe loves to hold them in this position! I guess men are even aware of having good abs at this age!

Does't Lilly look like a giant next to him? At their last appointments about two weeks ago he was 11lbs, 2oz and she was exactly 28lbs.

Nap Time

I just went to check on Lilly napping to find this...

Apparently the floor is more comfortable today than her bed (I must say she did a pretty good job of re-tucking herself in). Looks like baby needed to sleep on the floor too!

Firsts...

Lilly and George both had quite a few firsts this Memorial weekend...

George is beginning to get much better at holding things. He is also beginning to give us a small giggle:) We think he may also have a nickname. For awhile now mommy has been calling him bubs when he is upset. Lilly has picked up on it and in the car will say "It's ok bubs, we're almost home". Not sure where it came from but it might stick.

He also slept in his crib last week instead of the bassinet next to mommy and daddy's bed. He slept just as well as he did in the bassinet (from feeding to feeding), but still woke up every 3 hours to eat!

George also had his first Memorial Day. We thank all of our veterans, especially daddy for their service. Thanks to Nanny for the perfect handmade onesie to wear on the occasion (isn't she so talented!)

Lilly got her first ice cream from an ice cream truck. Yes she got a PINK PANTHER! Mom has craved them ever since she was a kid and stopped getting ice cream from the ice cream truck. Lilly was very nice to share with mommy too!

All 4 of us went to the zoo on Saturday to see the dinosaurs. Lilly LOVED them and kept asking to see more. She will tell you her favorite part was that some of the dinosaurs spit (water).

Of course George loved the zoo because he got to be in the snuggli all day!

Happy Boy

George is really beginning to smile in response to our smiles! He is so happy when he is playing now. Happy 2 month birthday little man!

His sister loved these tummy time books too. His favorite is the mirror on the far end.

Here sister is singing to him...she is amazing us at how many songs she can remember and sing independently now!

House Update

We have accepted an offer on our house, and we are now just awaiting bank approval. This process can take up to 60 days, so please pray for a "yes" answer from the bank. After only two weeks we are already growing sick of only seeing daddy for an hour per night.

Zoo Fun!

To celebrate Mothers Day with George's family we went to John Ball Zoo on Saturday. Lilly had a BLAST with her cousins!

Showing off their loot from the gift shop.

Lilly even got to pet the sting rays with Aunt Jessi.

I couldn't resist this picture. We couldn't believe how close we could get to some of the animals.

Here's the clan (minus Papa and daddy George). We hope to make it an annual event.
