party time

We were in NJ this past weekend to celebrate Brandon's 10th Birthday. He had a party at the playground, and Taylor was more than happy to play with the 'big kids'. Patrick was of course included in the 'big kids' category, and Caley just took a nap.

Caley Check-Up, Per Taylor

the 'cool' stroller :)

Taylor hasn't wanted to ride in a stroller much lately, you know, now that she is a 'big girl' but when she wants to go on a long walk its much too slow for me if she is actually walking. Yesterday was a perfect day for a nice, long walk so i told Taylor she could go in a stroller with Caley (a big plus) and that is was a 'cool stroller'. That's all she needed to hear! For the rest of the afternoon it was all, "let's go for a walk with the cool stroller!"  "Taylor and Caley in the cool stroller!"

Easter

Easter Basket from Grandma

Grandma Cristine mailed an Easter 'basket' box to us that Taylor thoroughly enjoyed opening! Its been a week of Easter celebrating... :)

Thanks, Grandma Cristine! xoxo Taylor

Happy Easter! (Morning)

(Caley was sleeping during these, but there are pictures of her later in the day!)

first supper

Caley had her 4 month check-up last week. We were very surprised to hear that she was only 12 lbs, 8 oz  as we thought she was a chunky monkey! (have you seen her thighs?!?)

Shockingly, her stats were the same as Taylor's 4 month...

12lbs 8 oz and 24" long.  She's sitting around the 25th percentile and officially labeled "petite". We have been instructed to start her on cereal as she isn't gaining "enough" weight due to her level of activity (have you seen her bicycling?!?)

Rest In Peace

Grandma Jean (Patrick's Grandma) passed away last Sunday. We're so glad she was able to meet Taylor and Caley and she will definitely be missed.
