Poison Ivy

Faith fell victim to the poison ivy growing in our backyard. It was all over her face. Luckily she didn't really itch at it at all. It didn't take too long for her to get over it. She was very reluctant to let me put Calamine lotion on it until I told her it was like make-up. Then she was much more cooperative.

Fun at Papa & Gramy's House

So I am a little behind on my blogging. What can I say, I feel obligated to go to the pool now that we bought a pool pass. Its a hard life, but somebody has to do it!!

The weekend we celebrated our anniversary the girls went to spend the night with Papa & Gramy. They had a lot of fun. Here are some pictures. I love these because they depict all of their favorite things to do at their house.Faith with the new tricycle we got at city wide yard sales.
Watching a movie in Papa & Gramy's bed.
Gramy helps Faith learn to peddle. They love having a big driveway to practice on, this is something we don't have at our house.
Playing with Roxie. (Cody & Erin's dog)
Papa pushing Grace in the stroller?? Guessing they were trying to keep her busy while Faith did the tricycle.
They love to do sidewalk chalk- Grace can now write all our names. Here you can see her name along with Titus & Dad. (We are still working on S)
The newest addition is a sand & water table. The girls have already enjoyed playing with it several times.

Titus- 4 Months

"Mom, Titus is four like me. But he isn't big girl four he's baby four, right?" -Grace
Definitely looking bigger than his bear now. I picked out these coordinating outfits because they reminded me of the Illini.
This one in Daddy's Illini hat is my favorite!
Very serious-checking out the excersaucer for the first time.

Yesterday Titus was four months old. Oh, how I love being a mommy to a little boy. (and two little girls of course) He continues to grow and change. He is now sleeping through the night- yeah! And generally taking a morning, afternoon, & late afternoon nap. I was afraid we were going to have to start cereal when he woke me up 3 nights at 4:30 a.m. starving, but I guess it was just a growth spurt because after that he went back to his usual routine. We celebrated 4 months by getting out the excersaucer and the 6-9 month clothes. I am afraid we won't make it to fall for 12 month things if he keeps growing like this!
