Big Sister


So I have been going to the gym each day for about an hour and the kids go into the daycare there. Addie loves it and is actually my motivation some days to go because she wants to go. Anyways, I picked the kids up yesterday and the girl working was holding Kellen and told me that Addie will tell her to hold Kellen or that she goes over and checks on him often. It was so nice to hear how protective she is of him. We don't always get to see that at home because she is starting to have some jealousy issues with him. We are trying to make individual special time with Addie like at bedtime when we read books and cuddle. Addie and I actually also start a Mommy and me gymnastic class tonight too.

State Fair .....It's all about the Rides!














Yesterday we headed out to the State Fair with the kids. Now for most people the fair is about the food, but for Addie it is all about the rides. She couldn't get enough of them. We thought she might be nervous riding alone, but oh, no she loved them. These are only a few of the rides she went on. Rides weren't the only thing we did. We spent some time in the Miracle of Birth building and missed a calf being born by 5 minutes. We got to see it stand up for the first time and the mother taking care of it. We saw new piglets with their mom as well as sheep and chicks. Addie thought it was pretty cool. Of course we went into see the horses , which Addie loves. We finished off our trip with a Choo-Choo Bob Show. Kellen did amazing and Addie was asleep before we even got on the highway. All and all a great trip. Can't wait till next year.

All smiles and Getting so Big

Kellen is such a happy baby.Every morning when I get him out of his crib he gets the biggest smile on his face. Not a bad way to start my day. Here are a few of our little guy and some of his precious smiles.
