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!

Titus Talking-

Discovery Depot Playdate

Taking a drive in the fire truck.
Milking the cow
Delivering the Mail (Just like Pop-o)
Checking out the water room.
Grace examines an x-ray in the veterinarian office.
Faith puts on her seatbelt in the tractor.
Faith takes a "ride" on the goat in the barn.
Nana checks out Faith's groceries in the store.
Grace puts on the fireman outfit.
Faith serves up some pizza in the restaurant.

We had a fun play date with Nana, Jessica, Carter, & Ellie. Jessica works with Nana at the hospital. We thought it was so funny when Carter said, "What kind of cousin is Grace?" Well, we aren't cousins but we sure enjoy play dates with them! We started our trip by spending the night at Nana's house. The girls woke up at 6 a.m. to crawl on the air mattress with Nana because they were excited to watch a movie.

We had planned to go to the zoo in Peoria, but due to rainy weather had to figure out an alternate plan. We ended up at the Discovery Depot in Galesburg, Illinois. I am really glad we went there because the kids loved it. It is a smaller children's museum. The girls really loved exploring the ambulance, police car, veterinarian office, barn, tractor, restaurant, post office, grocery store, and water area. They also had an outdoor play area we didn't explore due to the rain. I would definitely like to go back again. If you are in the area you should check it out.

Afterwards we went to eat at Hungry Hobos, a sub type shop we had never been to. Before packing up for home we attempted to fabric shop with all three kids for a fun blanket for Titus (more on that later). It was such a fun day!
