Tickle Time!

Looks like Penny is a wee bit ticklish :)

Video from Penny's Last Swim Class

Here's a video I took of Penny's last swim class with Mommy. I'm very proud of her swimming skills and that she looks at home in the water. Cousin Ryne and Aunt Krista make cameos as well.

July 4th

So everyone was together for the 4th this year in matching outfits. The kids did not cooperate for many pictures but we got what we could.

Penny went to the doctor yesterday and she is 16 pounds 6 ounces!!! What a big girl. She is sitting very well on her own, rolling over and is ready to move on to stage 2 foods. We predict she will be walking by 9 months.

Big Girl!!!

Ok, so I continue to be bad about updating the blog!!! Penny is now sitting up on her own and loves that she is a big girl. She is also rolling over from her stomach to her back and is working on rolling the other way.

Penny LOVES her exersaucer and hangs out in it playing with all the fun toys and attachments.

I took Penny to a splash park with my friend Melyssa on Tuesday, and though Penny didn't quite know what to think of of the water, she did look cute in her swim suit. On Tuesday Krista and I start Mommy & Baby swim class so I look forward to see what the kids think of that.

Cinci Zoo

Penny and Ryne went to the zoo for the first time this weekend!!! While the family was in Cinci for a Cubs/Reds game on Saturday we took the kids to the zoo on Sunday, sadly Ellie couldn't make it.

Both Ryne and Penny had a great time. Penny laughed at the animals and enjoyed sitting in her stroller like a big girl. We can't wait to take her to the Indy zoo sometime soon.

First Food!!

Ok so now that I have the lap top back I WILL be better about posts. Penny is 5 MONTHS OLD TODAY!!!! She is growing up so fast, but not sleeping through the night. Today she had her first big girl food, sweet potatoes. She loves to eat like a big girl and will lean in for mommy's spoon anytime. Here are some pictures of PenPen and her first meal. I have added pictures in the June folder and a video of Penny's first meal.

Finally a New Post

Ok so I have been pretty bad about keeping the blog updated, Easter was a good 3 weeks ago I think. Oops. Well I enjoyed my very first Mother's Day on Sunday with a beautiful necklace from Penny and daddy and a nice dinner out. In the last few weeks PenPen has discovered that she has hair and so do the dogs. She plays with her hair constantly and there is a video of her pulling on Callie's hair. She is now 4 months old!!!!!! and keeps growing like a weed. She goes to the doctor on Friday and we are very excited to see how big she is. I promise to be better about posts!!

See she does have curly hair.
