2 Months Old!

Little Miss Ali Kay is 2 months old today! She is just the sweetest little girl and finally started to smile this month, although I couldn't get her to do it for these pictures. She loves to kick her feet and is getting so good at holding her head up and bearing weight on her legs. She even pushes herself back when laying on the floor on her back. She has out of control hair and sleeps 8 hours straight at night!





                 Trying to get a picture of all 3 and there goes Blaine!

This kid just loves her little sister. He just told me yesterday, "Me so glad our last baby was a girl. I wanted a girl."

Firetruck Fun!

On our way back from Peoria the kids and I stopped in Alexis for the fire house open house. We enjoyed a delicious lunch and then the kids got to climb on all the fire trucks and ambulances. They were in heaven! Miss Ali slept the whole time and I didn't get very many pictures because I was busy chasing them around and helping them up and down each truck!







Our Annual Trip to Peoria

This past weekend we made our annual trip to Stoney Creek Inn in Peoria for the state boys basketball tournament. We didn't stay quite as long this year as we usually do since Miss Ali is only 7 weeks old. We got to the hotel Friday morning and headed home late Saturday morning. The boys enjoyed the experience at the Civic Center, hanging out and relaxing in the hotel room, and swimming in the hotel pool. We didn't get to do any of the outdoor activities that we usually do because it was so cold this year, but we still had a great time!

Science Night

We got invited to attend Science Night at Williamsfield School this past Friday night. We enjoyed a yummy supper at Nannie's house and Ali got to spend some one-on-one time with Nannie while we headed to school with the boys. They had a planetarium set up in the gym as well as different science experiments set up in the classrooms. The boys had a great time and we have some cool experiments to try at home.

        Making dry ice bubbles and shaving cream rain clouds

    Watching a vinegar and baking soda boat and playing with magnetic slime

    Making elephant toothpaste. Blaine's goggles were cracking us up!


            Watching the robots before we headed home

Ali's First Time at Church
