first beach day of 2015

it was 73 degrees in January. 

and it was the perfect day. 

sunny, low tide, and happy babies.

my favorite days always end up being the ones spent at the beach with these 3.

Millie had her first real encounter with the ocean, and she couldn't get enough. she sat in that little puddle for nearly an hour! the water had warmed in the sun so she was a happy camper.

and johnny had his whales in the ocean! his mind was blown. oh, and the whales... his newest and deepest love yet. Finn got a humpback whale for christmas and ever since then whales of all types have been johnnys thing. he played with his whales in the water for 2 hours.

 he was in heaven.

millie a 8 months

Millie at 8 months! 

She started crawling right before christmas (at about 7.5 months)! and she no pulls herself up and stands holding onto furniture.

she's become a terrible sleeper (up 3-4 times a night), i might just kill me.

i weaned her and she is now on a full formula bottle day and night. hallelujah!!!!

eating baby food pretty well, but would rather have our food. 

loves steamed carrots, broccoli and sweet potatos. 

not into bananas, or anything green.

starting to fit into 6-9 months cloths
has 2 bottom teeth!

very happy, and very nosey. 

we love this little girl. she's is so fun.

park date

the kids and i like to pick jake up from school and go to the park once a week on his long lunch break days (usually Wednesday).

johnny hadn't really been into his bike so we took it with us and he tried it out. and was timid at first but then got really into it! he loved.

every day since we have had to go on a walk/bike ride.

we love our park days with jake, especially if he has to stay late at school and only sees the kids for an hour at night when he gets home.
