crazy summer days!!!

We have had such a great month so far! Caroline is really starting to be a happy baby, she turned 4 months today, but we don't have her check up until next month, I wanted to have both kids appointments at the same time. Caroline is really starting to smile, blow bubbles, babble, and laugh a little bit. She loves to suck on her hands, play in the pool, talk with her brother, eat real food, play with her toys, and sit in her bumbo chair!

Ryan is FEARLESS!! Which is really scary since I don't like blood, I have a feeling stitches might be in our future! He will jump off any diving board, climb on any toy, wrestle anyone!! He is still a happy boy but has moments of unlovelyness!! Timeout has become a standard in our day, but he goes willingly most of the time so it is pretty painless.

The biggest news is Ryan has started potty training!! He is really doing a great job, yesterday he had 3 accidents and today only 1!! Once he realized that he got an extra piece of candy for telling me he needed to go, he was all about it! Which got a little annoying because he would finish his candy and then tell me that he needed to go again(which turned out to be every two minutes or so), and he always managed to squeeze a little out each time. Tomorrow I'm switching to the mini size M&M's, since I think he ate about 60 Reese's Pieces today. We will see if he really catches on, I'll give it a couple more days but here is to hoping!

We have been spending a lot of time in the pool, at the movies(which are free at Rave theaters), reading books, playing at the mall, hanging out with cousins and grandparents, the list goes on and on!! Can't wait for the rest of the summer!

Caroline might have to grow a little before this dress my mom and I made for her will fit!! Who knew that tissue paper could provide hours of entertainment!
Who know she could be such a happy baby!!

She is LOVING her baby food and rice cereal, even though she is a little messy!

Fingers are the best appetizer!

She is looking so big in her car seat
Ruby is giving Ry some love!

He is checking to see if she has eyeballs! He loves lifting eyelids, and she just laid there and let him, so I guess both were happy!

and she was happy to give him a "cowboy ride"-yee hawww

She stills loves to stick out her tongue

Look at those baby blues!!

Cheese, cheesy boy!

Here's to a great Summer!
